Is that linked article serious or complete houseboat?

his comfort on the ball while under pressure in his own half is the most consistent element of these comps. this is one of the biggest issues we have at the moment, no-one is comfortable passing the ball to the flame in our own half due to the high chance of ensuing fukkery. looks like he has a low centre of gravity to throw off pressure as well.

Klaus

He's playing very deep in that game. Looks like he's occupying some kind of weird libero position, almost.

And yes, he does look comfortable on the ball under pressure. I like that a lot too.

Jed

He's got smashing hair. Only Bellerin could compete with him in the hair stakes.

101greatgoals is complete houseboat, but they use Kingfut as a source, which seems to be reliable. The problem is I can't find the article on kingfut.com

Rex

This cat has nothing on Bellerin when it comes to great hair. No shame there though as Bellerin has the best hair in football.

Mirth

His teammate confirms the move. Woo!

I like how he moves to create an angle after the first pass. Not high quality opposition here but the signs so far have been encouraging.

Hope this gets finalised soon. We need to get him at least onto the bench as quickly as possible.

Rex

I agree. It is actually ridiculous this isn't done yet! Everyone at the club has known for at least a month about the state of our squad. This should have been done and dusted by now and the bloke should be in training with us.

Mirth

It's the first week of Janurary and by all accounts the hold up has been to do with the work permit rather than a hold up by either of the clubs or the player. It's not been ridiculous at all, it's been quite smooth so far

Rohit

Yeah, this would have already been done if not for the international clearance issue. Monday was essentially the first day of working.

He looks interesting. He can pass but in none of the videos is he being really pressured. What is impressive is that he doesn't stop running, he passes and moves into space to give a passing option.

Unfortunately none of the videos I have seen show a lot of his defensive work.

Yep, as long as he is in the squad for Liverpool with a week of training under his belt its all good. He just had a long break, so im not even counting on him for Sunderland.

GaelForce

Would be great to see him on the bench v Sunderland.

Claudius

When does he get his debut? He won't make this weekend's team.
And then Liverpool, Stoke and Chelsea don't strike me as the games in which you want to be fielding debutants.

marv3llous

As long as Ramsey-Flamini are fit he wont start a game for us in January most likely. Sub appearances.

Mirth

Pretty much, even if he was a more established player there's little sense in throwing him to a team under these circumstances. He's got to understand his teammates, get his head right, settle into the city and work out what is expected of him.

I wouldn't be surprised if Arteta gets more game time than Elneny this month.

DiabyKungFu

If Wenger were happy with Flamini starting games then we wouldn't be signing anybody this month. I would think this would be obvious to both Wenger haters and Wenger lovers alike. I'd be concerned if Elneny isn't able to walk off the plane straight into the first XI ahead of Flamini. This guy seemingly can run and pass and has played professional football before so there's no reason not to believe he's immediately at least 5 times better than Flamini.
