Lucas Perez (official)

[Coca Kolo]

Wenger has an unfortunate habit of transitioning squad players into the 1st team when there are viable opportunities to do so. Perez is an example in a long line of players. Shame as he's looked extremely promising everytime he's played.

Very good performance can see him being dropped for the next 3 games after that

Superb!!! Did not stop running. Wished that he scored the chance he had at the end but never mind, the boy did well. Lucas Lucas!!!!

I'd play him over Giroud any day..

Rightfully dropped after a performance in which he shot on goal

It used to be a joke to say Wenger dropped players for taking a shot or playing a forward pass. We're not laughing any more.

Wenger only signed him because of the Welbeck injury. Don't think he rates him highly.

If Wenger is around this summer, I wouldn't be surprised if Lucas ends up back in Spain.

[Blink 1nce Quince 2wice]

He didn't rate Welbeck that highly either when he signed him. It seems these days he never rates the forwards he signs as the cream of the crop which is in at least, part, of the problem.

[Marc Overmars]

Precisiely why I'm not bothered if he spends another 10m or 100m. He just can't seem to get the balance of the squad right and still remains averse to giving atypical signings a real chance in the starting 11.

[Gooner23]

I kind of assumed he was injured as didn't even make the bench. If he was fit and simply not selected that's a really poor decison by the manager.

I honestly don't know what more he has to do to get a run in the side.
