    He's not that good - not worth the sort of money it sounds like he's after. But he's not that bad either. His stats are pretty decent despite his maddening inconsistency and if we lost him we'd have to replace but probably don't have the time or inclination. Ergo I'd rather we keep him.

    As for 'end product', him and Theo have produced exactly the same end product so far this season although Cazola did at least provide an perfect for Giroud in the Sunderland game, it's not Cazola's fault that Giroud missed the target. Walcott did nothing either game.

    I can't comment on Cazola's previous career because I haven't seen any of it but it's irrelevant anyway as he was playing in a different team and league. Let's see what he does for us when he (and the strikers he's trying to feed) get settled in.
    Cazorla has also played more than Theo this season. Started both games actually.

    Ideally both of them would be in the first team to build a connection with Cazorla making the defense splitting passes and Theo tucking them away.

    As ive said, i like Cazorla and im not in the business of critisising one player to praise another.

    Im glad we have both

    Jesus, Arsene never learns. Theo will walk on a freebie, you just watch.

    I think AW weighed it up and decided that to lose him now would be too humiliating and damaging to our brand. I dont care if he leaves on a free whenever.

    No way the board won't let that happen AW will have no choice but to flog him by end of jan window if no contract has been signed.

    I'm not sure what you mean by that. That has rarely happened, we've generally sold before it does.

    He places far too much trust in his players in the sense that he believes that they will stick to their word. I wouldn't be surprised if Theo has/is being tapped up now with a view to running down his contract, everybody knows he's not committed now, it's clear for all to see. We've had other situations where we've been stung, Flamini walked, we practically gave Cole away, OK so we got money for RVP & Nasri bet we let the situation in both cases drag out, what's the point in keeping a player who doesn't want to be here?

    Theo should play no part in this team if he doesn't have any desire to stick around. I would have personally sold him in this window.
