Yeah, I have no doubt he would look better here.
I wouldn’t even exclude the idea od Arteta recreating his peak form from a few seasons ago where he was one of the top attackers in the world.
Should try and get him if Chelsea don’t want.
We should sniff around their old toys
350k pw, no? Doubt the club would go for it.
Take the 0 off and he’s still not worth it.
Don’t think I’ve fawned over a player this much since Santi. And before that, it was Cesc. Elite company he is in. This dude is simply my favourite Arsenal player.
So much swagger, so much casual confidence and arguably the highest IQ player we have - he is performing this LB / CM role to perfection. Tactically, he has a manager’s level of understanding of where / what he needs to be doing on the pitch.
And above all, he has an almost unhinged obsession with winning. It’s fucking contagious.
The impact he has had (and Jesus) on the squad’s morale, belief and expectations has lifted us LEVELS. So many levels in fact that we’re sitting top of the league with an 8 point lead at basically the halfway point of the season.
What a player. I actually love him. So, so much.
I saw someone in here liken his swagger to Ronaldinho the other day. I didn’t get it, I think I do now.

Luiz
Fuck those guys. Seeing Willian gives me PTSD.
Shakhtar did what?!
He’s one of our own.
fantastic game from him in that last man playmaker with license to roam… feels like it requires everything from you as a footballer to pull that off, tactical understanding, reading the game, technique, passing, movement etc. What a joy to watch him start attacks from the back over and over, all-around talent.
Fucking love this guy, absolute scenes for the 3rd goal, love the passion
Motm, what a player, unreal performance.
Made one big mistake where he got dispossessed by Eriksen but apart from that I don’t think he put a foot wrong.
I don’t think there’s a better LB than him in world football at the moment, and I watch a lot of football.
His best in the red and white so far.
What a player ffs!!!
City are absolute mugs giving us him.
