Willock Is A Bang Average Player

I genuinely can't see the hype surrounding this guy.
Technically he's poor and his footballing IQ is below par. Only thing one could point out is that he battles hard and is tall.
That's it.

I am not saying that because he had a poor game. But every time I see this guy I'm left bewildered.

Saka is another one. Nothing special player.
Not lightening quick or strong and technically poor.
I don't understand what people see in these guys.
There's not a lot of quality about em.
Martinelli is the only decent one out of these young guys.

Maybe it's cause we've fallen off so much that we can't discern between good talent and average ones anymore.

Saka is 18. He will be a good player

Either you could play or you can't. As they say if you good enough you're old enough.
Simple as.

Been saying it all season. Willock is out of his depth in the league. Him and Saka should be in the under 23s

Willock is a good player; I agree he has had a few poor games recently but he will come through.

Willock is tall?

So is most of our players apart from a couple.

Joe Willock - Height: 1.78 m

That's about average height, definitely not tall.

Same with Saka, they aren't bad players.

They showed flashes and then were thrown in the deep end with a bunch of teammates with the hearts of mice.

Willock was quietly effective yesterday. And you are blind if you didn't see it. Did you see how we couldn't get out of our own half in the second half after he was subbed?

The question that you should be asking why was Willock needed to hold the ball up and link Lacazette and Aubemeyang. Why couldn't Lacazette do it when holding the ball is is actually supposed to be his best quality.

To build a thread on the youngsters when the so called experienced players like Mustafi, Xhaka, Kols and Ozil have been diabolical and the reason why Wenger and Emery have been fired is missing the point!

Saka is a decent player but it's just too easy to nullify him and he does not have much about him to vary how he plays. Hes not strong enough to hold people off and does not have a right foot. He can not play on the right wing either.
A bit too predictable and easy to defend against.
