Arteta loves him because he reminds him of himself. Average player who will never ever be capped for his country at senior level, not fit to wear the shirt and pretending to be a worthy Arsenal captain.

I don’t remember Rob being at fault for any of the goals but him being our captain in a must win European game was like when Yaya Sanogo was our ST against Bayern some years ago. I just felt a bit embarrassed by the whole ordeal.

You're wrong, no?
I won't talk much about his defending, but for me, it's hard to accept that a modern CB can't pass the ball, it's just unbelievable how bad he is with his passing.
It's not only Holding, it's every one of our defenders struggling with it, but Holding takes it to another level.

I will never understand who gave them instructions to even attempt long range passing, what's the success rate of that?

Actually thought Chambers was a lot worse than this guy. Thought it was just a standard Rob Holding performance. Tried very hard, nothing spectacular, distribution a bit suspect at times. All par for the course with Rob.

I don’t understand the hate on here for Holding, sure he isn’t lacing the place with top quality CB performances but he’s hardly been any where near the worst player in our defense when he plays. There has constantly been at least one or two other players who he plays better than. What that signifies to me is that he’s an slightly above average defender and we should only have him as back up. He’s a bit like a younger Johnny evans.

Young Jonny Evans (and old too) was levels above this guy,

He shouldn't be anything more than backup but is getting games regularly. What does that say us

I've always found it strange that Holding has fans on AM. Maybe its because all of our CB's are poor, so occasionally Holding will look ok. He's on my "to sell" list and has been for ages. The only CB's I would keep are Gabriel, Mari & Saliba. We need to add one CB who is better than these 3.
