    Give the kid some credit. He spent a whole summer with a personal trainer one season and didn't take a holiday.

    Has a lot of talent but overrated because of his injury. Ability wise is up there amongst the best midfielders in our squad but is a complete moron and will never reach the levels Wilshere and Song have.

    Used to have one brilliant game and four complete garbage ones when he played for us.

    I don't get how he's overrated. By who? He doesn't get much praise from the press or Arsenal fans. Makes no sense to praise his ability and put him up there with the best in the squad but then say he won't ever reach the same level as Wilshere and Song. Maybe his injuries will prevent that but if your saying his talent and ability is up there, then he has the potential.

    I see these fractures regularly where I work as a physiotherapist, and they can be challenging to rehab. The nature of the trauma causes a lot of swelling and stiffness in the ankle joint. It is quite rare for a patient to recover 100% range of movement in the ankle, even with intensive treatment. The fact that Diaby was able to return to action nine months later is a great credit to Arsenal’s excellent medical team.
    'nuff said.

    Diaby has probably been watching his victory over Ben Arfa on Youtube.
    it's just that he broke his fingers when spelling diaby vs arfa on youtube.
    well, you can always drink you alcohol with a straw.

    He was pretty shit even when not injured tbh.

    We shouldn't be wasting time with him. He's been at the club so long now we must have given him a contract extension which is just madness.

    When on form we didnt need anyone else in midfield, but that was rare. Shame, it could have been wonderful.

    He was never that bad, ok he had a few brain fart moments and can be silly at times, but he can also be creative and look world class.

    Problem is he just seems to be a extra wage we are paying for but not using that much. Time to get rid let him restart his career else where. He'd welcome a knew start one would feel.

    Yeah, it sucks that he still keeps getting injured but the point is, he's desperate to stay fit and isn't as lazy as people on here make out. Wenger recently said his confidence has taken a serious knock after the latest injury. It's going to take him a while to get over this and maybe he needs to change leagues/clubs so he has a fresh start. I think he'd be a good player for us if he stayed fit. When he's playing well, he's really effective and has the ability to create chances and score goals. Has improved his defensive game as well.
