Thoughts?

Seems like he has talent.
But...if he, as a winger, doesn't back himself to get into a team with 0 wingers, then maybe he's best served going elsewhere.

The Mirror says he is due to sign a new long-term deal at Arsenal then join Hoffenheim on a loan deal:

Disaster if permanent. Good move if loan, plus would surely mean Emile Smith Rowe gets a lot of games this season.

I’ve not been overly impressed by him whenever I have seen him. Expected more from as people always seem to rave about him. Hasn’t shown much from him to suggest he’s a real top talent, like you can often see in other younger players. However he never seems awful, and there have been flashes of good play and also he’s never had consistent appearances, so bit harsh to judge him entirely from what I’ve seen of him in first team. I’d prefer him to sign a deal here then go on loan there and judge him after he’s had consistent starts at a high level, just incase he shows some real potential after that.

I have always felt Nelson didn't have enough tricks to play as a winger. My hope was that he could be retrained to the right back position. Obviously that was not on so good luck to him.

Lol after all the hype we are going to sell him?
Tbh I’ve seen nothing to suggest he is anywhere as good as he was made out to be but selling him so soon would be pretty weird

Everywhere is now saying loan deal with a long term contract extension at Arsenal.
