Yet another player that deserves proper management before a verdict is rendered.

I move that we put a halt to all player analysis (at least most) until Emery is sacked.

Mismanagement defined.

Can we talk about Papa...

I know our defence hasn’t been great for a few years now, but I genuinely thought he was pretty good last season...he had his crazy moments, but I thought he was relatively solid and our most dependable defender...but this year, Jesus!

He played well in the first game at Newcastle, but since then it’s been basically one disaster after another...what the hell happened?

He's yet another player who played well in his first few months in the club, then stopped performing. But has been immune from criticism from Arsenal fans. The fact that past it, near retirement Kos outperformed him speaks volume.

Why the hell Emery insists on his playing out of the back football, yet sees technically limited Sokratis as irreplaceable is something I will never understand.

This guy was never that good. We should've gotten Calgar and given him the one year Sokratis has had with us to settle in.
Mustafi >>>

He's ****, as are Holding, Luiz and Chambers. Our defence has been dreadful since that one good Mert-Kos season.

Kos and Per were good from about January 2013 to maybe summer 2016, think saying just one good year is a little harsh.

Actually probably just till summer 2015, don’t think you could fully trust Per from 15/16 on, barring his superb 2017 FA cup final performance...so probably about 2 and half seasons.

lol, I'm surprised at the rarity of "we should have got Soyuncu" posts.

Figured the hindsight specialists would be all over that one.

We will never ever fix our defence in the middle wont we? we just have some average players in Sokratis and Luiz same with Chambers and Holding good enough for top 7 teams not so called top 4.

Based on recent performances he should be benched. Looks incapable of passing a ball forward and its hurting Tierney as he gets balls played in awful positions.

Sokratis should start applying for his security badge now because when he leaves Arsenal, no other club is going to take him on. Absolute car crash of a defender. Squillaci level bad.

We could recoup at least £10m if we look to move him on next summer. Some Italian club would take a punt on him at that price. Probably a smart thing to do considering we need to rebuild the back four.

That pre season game vs Borehamwood really was a fairly accurate reflection of him over a prolonged period. He awful. Thanks Sven.

Vermalean 2.0 really. Fools with his perceived hustle, but lack substance. Should not be starting.

Thought he was one of our poorer players. He kept creating massive gaps between himself and Chambers in the first half.
He has big problems with possession and understandably West Ham were pressing him as soon as he got the ball.
