Seriously though...I'd rather he remained, but with a lot more application than we're seeing right now and If somebody better comes in then I will make my peace with it....

I am not in the band of people who thought we should fancifully show him the door a few years ago as Chamberlain had it all to surpass him and suffice to say, The Ox has done little to dissuade me since.

I thought his movement was pretty good in the last game and if we're making omissions based on missing chances in the last game, we'd be playing the academy for this one. He is more than capable of scoring against any opponent this league has and even going on a run. His fluffed lines recently have almost entirely been down to confidence.
I have this nasty feeling that if we sold Theo some other manager could get something out of him. Same with Ox. It would be so depressing to see them realising their potential elsewhere. I think that's the fear of a lot of Arsenal fans and it's why I didn't want him to go the last time it was being speculated. But this season both have been so poor. Like they have taken a giant step backwards. It's shocking really. Our reserve team got relegated, apparently. I didn't know that. Nothing seems to be coming through the ranks. We can't get the players we claim to have made onto the pitch because they are forever injured. Something is seriously wrong at this club and Theo and Ox are symptoms.
