I disagree with u on this.

The only player I feel was good but unlucky to have been left to waste is Podolski.

Podolski was a top player and always proved his worth anytime he was called upon. The same cannot be said of Torreira and Perez. Torreira just seem not to be physically built to stand the fast and physical style of play in England. He tires easily, cannot be used as stand alone DM without getting overrun by physical players. I also love him as a player and u know my opinion about Xhaka but as a coach I will always pick Xhaka over him even when he appears to be faster.

Perez on the other hand is just not Arsenal quality. He's far from it.

That said, I wish Torreira well in his sojourn in the Serie A.

How is welbeck or giroud better than Perez?
How is xhaka better than torreira, forget guendouzi xhaka is the weak link in that team

Aside tackling, what is torreira better than xhaka at?

Put in mind also that torreira isn't great as a stand alone DM like kante or coquelin of then

Do you know xhaka can't pass still facing you, it's so worse for that guy.
Why do you think I call him anywhere belle face, I don't hate him but loaning out torreira and retain him is bad unless partey is coming
Why do you want to use torreira as a stand alone DM, is xhaka a stand alone

There was a match Perez scores I think a hat-trick in UCL and Wenger benched him for Giroud in the next game.

Torriera is not the mobile DM that Arteta likes. Besides Arteta's DM must be able to build from the back and cover the RB when the team is attacking.

Torriera on the other hand is just a tackler, destroyer type of DM and so doesn't fit into Arteta's arrangement.

You really need to take away Ur prejudice against Xhaka and watch him with an open mind going forward. I don't rate Xhaka among top midfielders either CM or DM I would like to see in Arsenal colors, BUT u really need to acknowledge he has Improved greatly in recent times and he alongside Luiz have part of the key players in Arteta's Arsenal resurgence of late. He has been instrumental to our play from that led to the goals for Auba.

I never said any of Giroud or Welbeck is better than Perez. In fact Perez is not a striker Per se...playing Perez in that Giroud position will be a disadvantage to the team because like Giroud he is not more of a direct threat to goal but does hold-up which makes him a shorter version of Giroud who as at that time is less experienced in the league. No serious coach will start him in top 9 ahead of Giroud lailai. Welbeck's energy has always given him edge either at Man utd or at arsenal.

I maintain again only Podolski was that good that could make me question Wenger's decision of not giving him more playing time Than he did

As for Torreira honestly there's no Argument about that. There's a reason all 3 coaches that managed arsenal in recent times always place Xhaka ahead of him

For all the sticks Xhaka got, at what point will u and L-Khalifa apologise and agree I was right.

Lol.. I believe you're exaggerating the bolded sha. From midfield to the defence, xhaka and Luiz give more through balls than any of our mfs or defenders. The only difference is xhaka can play wen not under pressure. If xhaka is not under pressure, you'll enjoy him, if he's then high probability of tears then.

We should just admit, torreira doesn't fit into Arteta plan. He's a good player no doubt but the set up now doesn't favor him. It'll be best for his career to just leave

You've just described Xhaka role at arsenal.

Nothing to add or subtract.

Just Negodu Sanchez undecided

[b]Reflecting on his time in Manchester via a video posted on his Instagram, the 31-year-old claims he knew very quickly he wasn't going to enjoy his time with the club and hit out at the squad's lack of unity during his time there.
"After the first training session I realised many things, I came home and asked my family and my manager if I could not break the contract and return to Arsenal, something did not fit me, but I had already signed," Sanchez said.

"Months passed and I kept feeling the same. We were not united as a team at that time.
"The journalists also spoke without knowing and it hurt. Former players also spoke and had no idea what was happening inside the club. And they hurt me.

"A player also depends on the internal environment, that we need to be a family. We weren't like that, and it was reflected on the field. If someone had to be blamed, they blamed me.
"I do self-criticism and should have played better. But I was always blamed, even if I played for a few minutes."[/b]
I really didn't understand his move to Man Utd as at that time. I mean if he had moved to Man city or Chelsea that were a bit balanced and won the league recently one can argue he saw a team that could challenge for the league and actually win it.....smh

I guess he didn't realize what he was losing until it was too late

I have never been so much against Xhaka. My stand has always been that he stays in the first team (alongside Guen) until we get a decent DM.

I for one hardly condemn players not to talk of Arsenal players.
