Unlucky yesterday but you can see he has so much talent
Not unlucky, fluffed two massive opportunities by being immature and glory hungry.
Give him a year or so and the ox will be a better attacking force than gotze and hazard
Strong as the Ox

Only seen 10 seconds of the video, shit internet where I am, but the turn and pass he did in those 10 seconds was outrageous ability.
That one where he dragged back was Neymar esque
Yeah, that's the one. About 1:10 into the video.
Going to be a bit special is our Alex. 🙂
With a bit of luck we would have a hat trick, but with a bit of maturity he would have had three assists.
Special player. My only real gripe was where he shot with his team-mate free and calling for it. I think Wenger will nurture him well, and we'll see more from him later on in the season.
I've not seen anyone as barrel chested as him be so quick with such a low centre of gravity.
Kids fuckin immense
tevez?
Different. Tevez is a workaholic on the pitch. Great too but not as explosive

Actually I was talking about the 3.30 one which was in my opinion a more difficult skill to execute in those circumstances. 🙂 Go have a look
How would you guys compare his quality to, say, Jermaine Pennant, at the same age? I really only recall one Pennant performance: the one where he and Pires went nuts. The rest is a blur.
Pennant never did anything special in the final third as far as i remember, except in that one game...
There's no comparison, he's the best english attacking talent since Rooney.
shame he doesn't have the work-rate rooney had, it's the only thing that makes me skeptical about this guy.
Although Rooney has become a better player since he curtailed that 'workrate'.

Turns out we're talking about the same skill, I just saw a different video.
