A lot of attention is focusing on Ryo Miyaichi at the moment. Arsene Wenger has been talking him up, and he is all set to join the first team on the trip to Asia.
But is it just a publicity stunt?
After-all it makes a lot of commercial sense to reel out your only Asian player on a trip to Asia!
Is Ryo going just to sell shirts rather than on merit?
He isn't even guaranteed a work permit...
Ryo just a publicity stunt?

Hes a good talent though

I guess it's a reasonable question after Inamoto failed to convince anyone - but Ryo really makiong waves in Holland on loan. Could be the real deal.

Using your logic, it could be said we only signed Eboue to sell shirts to everyone who believes in God

Remembering how Wilshere impressed in the pre-season Emirates cup and very quickly went on to claim a place in the first team squad, I'm wondering if lightning could strike twice

Very quickly my Arsenal! It was 2 years after he made his appearances in the Emirates Cup before he was a regular player.
