Could spell the end for Eboue

Given Arsene's track record for signing young players, could spell the end of signing Cahill.

He's been given 25 by the looks of training ground pictures, nothing official on Arsenal website yet.

On his performances so far, he is probably the worse arsenal player I have ever seen.
We should appeal against his sending off and get it increased to 10 games

not entirely untrue but still pretty harsh

the kid tries hard, is a bit slow off the mark and his final ball is poor...but the heart he shows should hold him in good stead...

give him 2-3 seasons i reckon

thats really harsh mate
he was a million quid from charlton and was never meant for the first team straight away.
he gives alot of effort and is is young enough to learn positional play. i would rather have him over eboue.

My comments were after frustration of watching our shots squad against man it'd and maybe comments would have been better aimed at wenger. Saying he would only buy if it would be someone to strengthen our team and then we end up with jenkinson who on current performances has been average at best.
Least man utd shook up a few people (wenger/board) and we went out and strengthed the squad. Can't see us pushing the top 3 but 4th is definately on target now

Step forward Mr Carl Jenkinson, with Sagnas injury this is your big chance.
I have to say I am very worried but lets hope he proves me wrong

I'd rather have Coq or Ramsey there. Ramsey is playing pretty badly in the midfield anyway and has played RB before.

So I bought her a Tottenham shirt.

I disagree. Ramsey is still getting used to his role in the side, which hasn't been easy given that Arteta is doing the same thing.

He's not a RB and whilst it may help him learn some defensive skills, I think he'd learn a lot more in his current role.

He (Ramsey) had a woeful nld and has been one of the better players in a poor start to the season. One great game doesnt make a good season and as in one poor one doesnt make a bad season.

The kid's been doing okay. Never looks like he has any confidence on the ball but somehow gets by. When he has a bit of time he's a reliable crosser as well. In a few seasons he should have developed nicely.

It is our remaining major weak spot as Sagna is a class defender and has been a mainstay of the side for seasons.

he's definitely on the up...the only bright side about sagnas injury is the exposure jenko is getting. he reminds me of myself, being able to curl in a cross behind the defence of any team :lol:
