Superblue 6,372 Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 17 minutes ago, Dazzy_Vance said: Why do people want him he's bang average His versatility would be a huge asset for us next season. Even if we still buy 3 or 4 more players, we won't have an awful lot more depth to what we had last season seeing as we've let quite a few players leave. Therefore having a couple of players that can play multiple positions allows Conte to work with a smaller group whilst still retaining adequate cover for different positions and also gives him greater flexibility with regards to changing tactics and formations midway through games. I wouldn't rate him as high as some on here, and he really needs to add a level of consistency to his game but I do think he has the characteristics to make a very good wing back and considering the influence Conte has over Moses, I would expect him to find ways to get the best out of the ox.

His crossing puts Moses to shame. Xo is on last year of his contract I think 🤔 we could get him around about £20m - £25m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a general shortage of top-notch players for the wing back positions, so Ox is a good choice right now for this and number of other reasons. Ox may also improve when he comes to Chelsea and I don't see him being overrated at all; Arsenal fans just need something to feel good about, right?

manpe 10,861 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Good versatile player, young and english being welcome bonuses. Should be relatively cheap too. I'm all for it. Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King11Didier 916 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 He isn't impressive player, but he is hard worker and under Conte I believe he will improve. He can become a good wing-back imo, he is hg also and won't be too expensive I believe. Worth to try at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sad thing is because it's us I don't think he will sell, think Wenger is that stubborn he would rather Give him away haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mccg 1,528 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 When we have sold Ake-Nc-Loaned out Ruben-Ola this makes little sense , not sure how much of an upgrade as rwb ,he seems kinda Jack of all trades, master of none https://www.whoscored.com/Players/84146/Show/Alex-Oxlade-Chamberlain Tournament Apps Mins Goals Assists Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Colored Sky 1,807 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Would like to think he's our ~5th option. Only for reasonable money. He has scored 9 goals in total in his 6 Premier League seasons ! Marcos Alonso scored 6 last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
