Not the kind of player that would do well in the second division of Scottish football. But neither would Fabregas or Ozil.

28 games won the league and another cup converting a penalty on route to the final, don't have his goals and assists stats but it doesn't seem like he couldn't hack it to me.

If anything a poor loan spell in a lower league and team doesn't mean the player can't make it at his team look at Harry Kane, Coquelin and Alex Song are an example of this.

We should keep him .He's just a little weak but he'll grow. wenegr dont fancy him not sure why technically brilliant. Great passing. He's near same age as that pulsic guy who's playing well. He'll be exceptional there within 2-3 years. We should keep him and develop him with real games. He'll be star at dortmund all he needs is faith and games. Once he strengthens up he'll be able to play all 3 mid positions. He's too technically sound his passing is crisp.

Didn't he play in the Emirates Cup one year for us ? He sparkled, looked fantastic. I don't see why you would not persist with him but loan him too a Prem side, no point loaning him to a championship side, they don't tend to play the same football and the game is faster.

Good news he's not being sold yet, I just hope that Wenger gives him a chance in the near future before selling as he's easily the most creative prospect we've had since Fabregas.

He was expiring this summer right? You can't loan a player in the final year of his contract.
