He’s had a very marmitey start to his Arsenal career, lots to love and hate in his game so far.
He’s clearly got immense talent but I’m not at all surprised Zidane isn’t sold on the evidence of what we’ve seen so far. He looks like a very rough diamond at the moment, and there’s little scope to develop for players like him at Madrid. Hopefully he does the good stuff more consistently as he settles in here.
If you’re more cynically inclined, his start has arguably been ideal in that it maximises our chances of signing him permanently. He’s been good (and appears to have settled in well) but not good enough that Real will refuse to sell him in a year’s time.
