All that he is saying in that article is that it is challenging -- but of course he is aware of that and accepts that.


I am sure if the sun published that article about arsenal it would have been parsed and dismissed to death.
No because you place that in to the context of his recent performances too, he started on Sunday but still looked absolutely miserable and all of that shows in his game, nothing is coming off for him. He's not going to accept it forever. Barring injuries, I don't see much of a change in store for him. We're judging him by the yardstick of how he was for us, not how it is going there.

It's not that he's going to dislodge him just like that; the most pertinent thing is, he's not going to dislodge them.
