Spot on. The guy has something special but he is just too inconsistant.

Cesc is one of the greatest players you'll ever see in an Arsenal shirt. He left us with his prime years ahead of him but still managed to carry us in his early twenties. He was phenomenal for us.

Cazorla is good, Cesc is great.

Michu scored two yesterday, straight swap for Cazorla?

if he gets ghel'd up a bit then it could work out but whether or not he wants to dig deep is up to him. even silva has realised he has to roll his sleeves up at times.

The only player that caught my eye as extraordinary talent when watching live is Cesc. Sure there were other 'good players' but Cesc was special.

Cesc was something else and now people are starting to realise how good he was. Even in the days when he was a kid with the silly mullet, his ball distribution skills, vision and passing were on another level. Read the game so well at a you g age and was never caught in possession which is what we often see nowadays with Caz, Ramsey and Arteta. He never played passes that put his team mates under immediate pressure an always made himself available for a pass. Never want hiding or ducked his responsibility of controlling the tempo of the game. All this before he was in his 20s and belter he started banging in goals. It can't be underestimated how special he was. We now have Wilshere, Arteta, Cazorla and even with all three on the field they can't dictate the tempo of a game. Rosicky is the closest one but he's always out injured.

The midfield is all wrong.

Individully, all three are excellent players, but it just doesn't work.
