Mohamed Elneny (25)

He’s a cheap version of Abou Diaby.

And inferior in every aspect, not just cheaper

Probably should have chosen a different shop. Poundland is usually the go to.

Contributes to the culture. Or something.

I think the ref felt a bit sorry for us. We were already suffering, why do it with 9?

Must be. They got the goal afterwards anyway so I guess it didn’t matter.

Well it would of been another shitter we couldn’t select for another 3 games.
He should of gone though regardless.

Just about 10 games ago, Elneny made Arteta looked like a genius to pick him.

Sell in January and give his minutes to Willock instead.

Such a useless and pointless player.

He’s not useless or pointless.
He’s a good lad and a solid squad option for where we stand right now.
The fact that we rely on him to be a starter shows how bad our depth and quality is in our midfield at this moment.

His biggest crime is that Xhaka isn’t much better than him unfortunately.

He was bought as a £10m squad guy. Xhaka was bought as a £30m starter.

I could totally be wrong but I seem to remember 5m being mentioned as the fee. Tbh I’d say we’re probably getting decent value for money if that’s the case, like you say, at least we didn’t sink proper money into this guy.

Is the depth really that bad? Your boy Ainsley might be a better option than Elneny. The projected starting guys, either Ceballos or Xhaka, are not good. Don’t think there is anything wrong with our depth. At least as far as central midfield goes.

We get what we paid, that’s it.
5m, 10m, whatever… just an average player. Average as fuck and nothing special.
If you really want to find his specialty… how about… sideway passing. High percentage passing, that’s what Arteta wants.

Simply a squad player for any “big” club and the 3rd or 4th choice at most.
Don’t even think it was a bargain deal. He is just “another” player and you can find this type of players everywhere. A rotation.
