Oxlade-Chamberlain

Would rather have Gervinho in the side right now. And I am not joking at all.

Absolutely pathetic from this bloke again. When he got one on one with Kolo Toure with about 50 yards of space behind even a Sunday league winger would have knocked it past him and been gone. Ox slowed the play right down and managed to get tackled.

The poor bastard has been ruined by The Old Fraud. No fucking coaching or feedback whatsoever :(

The bloke is absolutely chronic at the moment; he looks like he’s been plucked out of the stands.

Good news - Theo Walcott is coming off :barscarf:

Bad news - to be replaced by Alex Oxlade Chamberlain :banghead:

He lost the ball in typical Oxlade fashion -led to their equalizer.

I make that 6 goals directly from his sloppy/untidy play.

That one on one with Toure was a complete joke. Wenger definitely noticed it big time as he referenced how poor decisions in the final third were made in his post match interview. He's really blown his chance this season - the injuries we had basically screamed "hey bro do something".

Even if Wenger was tying his bootlaces together it wouldn't excuse how piss-poor he is playing.

He's woeful at the moment, truly woeful. This is Chamakh levels of poor form. I can't actually blame Wenger for this as it looks like a lack of confidence bred from a lack of application.

Normal service has resumed.

Utterly dismal Ox.

On a positive, he had a couple of decent shots from outside the box, one of which deflected of Kos and could have ended up going in.

His distribution however, for a central midfielder was very poor, frequently attempting an ambitious pass only to give it straight to a Stokie.

As King of The L's, Stuart says, a couple decent shots from Ox. But everything else he touched turned into the kind of shit that dribbles down a Stoke fan's chin after they have been muff diving on their mother. Who of course is also their sister. :x

I feel about OX the way I used to about Theo, he'll come good, give him time. :banghead: Theo has let me down so I have no hope for the OX. For whatever reason, neither has or is reaching their potential. Move on and take Jack with you, he's just another sick note.

the effort was there but unfortunately he makes too many poor decisions and when he does make the right decision, he can't execute and passes the ball off the pitch. really frustrating.
