I don't believe half the shit about the contract stories. I didn't believe it when Theo was apparently demanding 80k a week and I don't believe this. But I think that Oxlade is at the level of players (not just Arsenal, but generally) who earn a lot of money. When players around you like Ramsey and Wilshere are on, say, £50k+, you probably expect something similar if you're performing at the same level. What's Downing on at Liverpool? Or Valencia at Man Utd? We're talking crazy figures across the board. And out of the youngsters, Oxlade isn't really a 'maybe' any more.
