Yay, Arteta beating the “I don't use kids” allegations.

Thought there was some official statement that made this certain.
Was positively surprised yet was confused why would we have a statement for that.
Now I see it's speculative drivel.

Except . . . this is exactly why you have a Holding, and send Walters on loan.
Young fullbacks need to play. I have no doubt that Walters is at least as good as Holding right now, and has vastly higher potential. But sitting on the bench and getting Holding minutes (late game defensive cameos or thrown to the wolves in an injury crisis) is not going to help his long term development.

He should be playing in the Carabao Cup at a minimum.

I'd be totally on board with play the Carabao Cup, train with the first team, and go out on loan in January. But he's 19. He needs to play every week. So while he's probably better than Holding now, and definitely will be better than Holding in the future, giving him Holding's role now is detrimental to his long term development.

Fair enough. Good player with high potential but I don't think he's pushing the first-teamers enough in training. Would have been nice if we got a fee for him. I can see him doing well abroad or in the EFL Championship.

Right decision for him, but yeah im not gonna attack Arteta because I wouldn't confidently chuck him in to a title race this tight myself.

He will never get a proper chance as long as Arteta is at Arsenal so this is the best decision for him. Nwaneri should leave aswell if he actually care about his career.

With Arteta at the club. There is no point of the academy tbh. Not even gonna make money from it as both walters and cozier will leave for free. Skelly and most likely nwaneri will end up leaving for free. Yeah we will get small compensation for training them. But I bet there is huge frustration from the people running the academy towards Arteta and lack of any route for youngsters

Yeah he already made 2 appearances at the age of 15 and 16. He should be livid with Mikel.

Title race? There was plenty of opportunity earlier in the season to play him, test him, ease him in.
The combo of him maybe not being up to par and Arteta not willing to play youth... The writing was on the wall.

We've lost more promising players in the past, Zelalem would become the new Cesc. JET was amazing too.
Not too bothered by this.

He's not a Nwaneri level talent. Not the same situation.
