Always fresh from Bangladesh
I think we didn't care much about his destination. I'm guessing we figured he won't cut it here.One YT clip is all it takes to judge a players skill and future these days..?
Loaning him to Granada was a huge mistake from Arsenal's end or whoever facilitated that loan. Look at Granada ffs. They were pisspoor this entire season. Wouldn't expect Toral to have had much chance there. When a team is struggling like they were, then they usually don't use their 21 year old loanees but stick to vets or own talent. Horrible settings for Toral. Can't judge much from that.
I'm not saying he's going to be a world beater, but the man was with us for 3 years following his move from Barcelona, and then he's been loaned out to several clubs ever since. Give the guy a break from loans here and there and let him stay at Arsenal and get some chances. Think he could become a very decent rotational player for us - and I would 100% prefer if we were to develop our own squaddies instead of paying big money for players who didn't quite make the cut to be starters, who then sit on the bench because they're too expensive to release.
He also scored this beauty for Granada in Copa del Rey even though only playing 10 minutes that game.
I'm more than 110% confident he won't make it here. From that video his technical level was very poor. His touches very heavy and forced. Doing backheels and flicks which like Ramsey hardly came off, looked off-as in the quality of them- and there wasn't much reason behind doing that stuff-meaning good players do them when its the best solution to a given situation. He has good shooting technique, yes. Apart from that he has nothing to his game.
Great goal but it has nothing to do with for how long he was on the pitch so I don't get your point there. Like I said his shooting technique looks good. Otherwise he is very underwhelming.
We'll have to disagree on this one Sir Emile.
