Does anyone else wish that we'd sold Vela instead of Eduardo?
To an extent, I think Eduardo suffers the same problem that Vela does in that he wasn't suited to our formation shift. Both our players who should be playing centrally but don't really have the physical attributes to lead the line. So they get pushed out on the wing where they're not all that productive.
I'm pleased that it's working out for Eduardo but there was absolutely no sign that he was going to recover last season. You could easily argue also, that it's the change in scenery that is doing him good and mentally, he can move on from that horrific injury.
As for Vela, I still think people are being a bit hasty in their judgement. I think we can all be concerned that his development has slowed somewhat but it doesn't help that Wenger has barely played him the past few seasons. I thought he looked quite positive when he came on against Donetsk, so I hope he can push on from there.
