My question: how could we have gotten it so wrong with Gnabry?

[Tony C]

We didn’t get anything wrong.

Picked up injuries and had weight issues yet felt entitled enough to demand he play 1st team football regularly.

He went on loan to West Brom but they sent him back because they couldn’t put up with his childishness.

Talented player....I felt at the time he had the potential to be far better than both Theo and Ox but he had his issues.

Look...after a while people grow up...question is how long do you wait...sometimes you admit it isn’t working, shake hands and part ways.

Just like Mustafi and Xhaka in the summer.

They might both return to Germany and be superstars but that doesn’t me we got things wrong with them.

Also wasn’t it just last week people were moaning about how pow poor the Bundesliga is after Tottenham had their way with Dortmund?

Mustafi yes, Xhaka no. For all his clod-hopping he's a physical player who would be good in an alley-way scuffle. You need that, especially when you have undersized defenders like Mustafi.

With that being said, goddamn. Walcott. :Shakes head:
