    The wounded are an irrelevance to me.

    See also youths, reserves, promising starlets and loanees.

    On a personal level I think he is magnificent and head and shoulders the best available midfield option at the club, his presence on the pitch bringing an assured level of passing and possession which is lacking in his absence.

    What says ye?

    P.s. In respect of yesterday sadly predictable in the face of quality opposition, albeit very weakened quality opposition. We are great against the small teams mind you.

    Wenger out.
    We could probably get away with shoving him in at central defence while Shakira is off nursing her injury. He'd at least put a bit of fear into the opposition forwards.

    On the evidence so far, there's more chance of him standing on you. Right in front of the c*nting referee.

    First time I saw Santi & Xhaka in the midfield I thought - JACKPOT

    Been a long time since we had a world class combination in front of the back 4 and I'm pretty sure it's why we started to see Ozil become more of a goalscorer ie no need for him to drop so deep to drive our play.

    Shame Santi got injured.

    Like Xhaka a lot...can be a future Arsenal captain but clearly has bits and pieces of his game he needs to improve upon but guess that's partly why Arsene signed him I.e. Future improvement and value.

    ...

    Perez would be awesome in a 4-4-2....same as Wellbeck.
