The rise of Big Lex

As well as Iwobi has done recently, I still think Ramsey will take his place soon as he's fit again.

But that means either playing Ramsey on the left wing, or shifting Walcott over to the left, both of which are bad decisions, especially the latter considering he's our best attacker at the moment.

I know this is just PR stuff and shouldn't be taken too seriously, but that question about who is always late was weird. Surprised his party let them ask it. Maybe not so surprised that Chambo is the one that's always late though...

It's a standard question that FourFourTwo ask every player. It also probably means it's not a big deal.

Don't want to read to much into something like that but Chambo always being late isn't what I want to hear. He's too laid back.

Yeah, in hindsight maybe the anti-Ox sentiment of late made me read too much into it. Saw Bellerin asked the same question and he said Nacho and Alexis. Maybe that's where James Olley, or it might have been Matt Law, made up that article last summer about players being annoyed about Alexis turning up late

We don't play a rigid system so Ramsey will have the freedom to move around just like Iwobi does. They don't just stick to the left wing position.

Big Lex ? Sounds so porno/grungy

I thought he was Obi Wan?

His original brand was #Big45

Big Lex isn't a good name because we have Alex Iwobi, Alex Ox and Alexis.

Big Lex is fine as Ox is small and Alexis is tiny.

QuincyAbeyie

According to Wiki Ox is as tall as Obi Wan.

Bold Tone

We can call him Wiki Ox then and leave Big45 as Big Lex.
Obi Wan has no connection for me.

QuincyAbeyie

You just basically said that Obi Wan was small. 🙂

Bold Tone

Maybe but not quite as directly as you implied Wiki Ox was big.

QuincyAbeyie

I really didn't, but feel free to go with it.

Bold Tone

:hmm: Like you, i'm really struggling to care but Obi Wan is Kenobi to me.

goon

Obi Wan is a good nick name for Ox. The force is the only explanation for why the ball seems to accelarate away from him after his first touch.

anyone else think he should be given a break on the bench once ramsey is fit?

yuv

Sure starters are Ozil, Sanchez, 2 CBs and Bellerin. No one else. Not even Cech. But Neither should Ramsey be -
form, individual and team, should decide it. Lex is now a big thing in the team, but considering his age we should expect some ups and downs.
And after this game I wouldn't have any problem if he sat out a bit.
