He scored at Southampton when we were 1-0 up
He crossed for lacazette to score at wolves when we were 1-0 up


I meant that he's a decent sub option in games where we need fresh legs more than we need a goal.

Agreed I'm not digging Willock.

I think he needs a loan or something or just to play against weak opposition, he's Brighton FC material right now, nowhere near good enough to be sniffing for 1st choice.

Quite a bad miss, but Arteta chose to play him as a striker (or a false nine or whatever since he was our most forward player since he came in) and kept Aubameyang on the left and Nelson on the right. Maybe I should watched the game again, but we looked more threatening since he and Nelson came on.


they had quite the effect ...we were more likely to score by far and he missed that header

am unsure about this guy...leaning slightly to give a little ore time....

Didn't we have his brother as well?

What happened to him?

Jammiest penalty to win a shoot-out I've seen in some time.

That aside, I thought he had one of his better performances in an Arsenal shirt today.

A better goalkeeper would have saved it had they guessed the right way, it’s Liverpool’s B team let’s not get excited he’s still not good enough but hopefully it brings up his price

Thought he was poor tbh. Didnt get any control in the midfield and he ruined our golden opportunity by getting caught up by a 47 year old milner

Saka and Martinelli are our only youngsters I see a big future for, especially the latter who has RVP potential.

I know talent when I see it.

Willock is very basic.

Weight on the final ball is terrible

Should’ve developed that by now

There's half a player in there, but its like drawing blood out of a stone with him.

Players who will become top level, it shouldn't be this hard.

Would Willock even get into Southampton?

I've got new prescription glasses and a 70 inch digital tv, and somehow I'm still struggling to see anything of any note or real substance to Joe's game that justifies his appearances, even though my logic tells me I simply must be missing something that Arteta is not.

Given he has at least scored a handful of goals, I'm constantly awaiting that eureka! moment and would greedily scoff down the biggest slice of humble pie going for having doubted his entitlement to wear the shirt, but....

However, on first viewings I also didn't think there was that much to admire about Tony Adams or Michael Thomas, but it's that I felt pretty much the same about Ian Selly, Gus Ceasar and Steve Morrow which is my concern about Willock.
