No confidence? You mean no skill.

Welbeck is better.

The way he's playing its as if he's trying to stay out of the limelight and if that's the case Wenger needs to grant him his wish. Wenger needs to remember he's only 21 years old and may not be able to handle pressure as well as others his age can. As have already been suggested, send him somewhere where he can learn to feed off pressure.

Saka Jesus Martinelli
(Pepe/Nelson) (Nketiah/Balogun) (Trossard/ESR)

A player that shy's away from pressure ........... sounds like the sort of player we want right?

Wrong.

Get rid.

AMN for example, just because he failed at CM didn't mean he shied away once he was put in RB, he took the opportunity head on because he's fighting for his place at AFC, Iwobi fkin plays like he's undroppable from the squad ffs.

Fk him, he needs to be gone.

Bring back Joel Campbell or Lucas Perez or Gnabry till this day I still can't understand why we pushed out those three in favour of Iwobi, the only thing Iwobi is possibly better at is link up play, everything else is dire.

Watched Gnabry in the flesh a few months ago. Best player on the pitch, very eager, always getting into good positions and made some very nice passes too. He did fairly well at Bremen last year, much better than Iwobi has here in the same time period. Sadly, however, the team he's playing in currently are garbage and his form has suffered a bit.

Still, I hope it makes at Bayern but I'm not quite sure he's got it what it takes to fill the boots of Robben and Ribery.

How has he done overall this season?

Not seen/heard him mentioned since the Euro u21's last season.

Iwobi is an enigma.

Great touch and close control... apart from that not much else.

Has the weirdest running style anyone has ever seen, can't shoot and no final ball or end product.

What does he actually give us that Reiss Nelson wouldn't - bit of defensive cover maybe...

I'd give Riess his minutes all day everyday.

............... nah, he's just sh*t!

There, enigma solved.

Welbeck, Perez even Reiss Nelson is probably better.

Wenger has found his last project before he fks off and we all have to suffer it.

Ozil's reaction to another fked up pass from Iwobi said it all, Iwobi is detrimental to our game and yet Wenger carries on with the muppet.

When the new manager comes in Iwobi will be dropped like a hot cake.

I think it was Gnabry himself forcing the move. The club did give him opportunity before the injury.
