He won't be in for a while yet. We saw how Garner looked after his relatively short layoff. This lad won't be match fit until Xmas.

Christmas is 3 months away, he's back in full training and played in a friendly against Blackburn, I'll be surprised if he's not on the bench for our next game and pushing for a start by the end of the month.

Think he's going to make a huge difference. Got Gareth Barrie vibes for me.

[Bluebridge]

I hope so, just be nice having a solid option in the 6 position other than Garner.

As we're seeing with Maitland-Niles, it won't take somebody of Garth Barry's level to be transformative for us. Somebody who's full-time job is that position will be a revelation.
I like Hackney, Garner and Armstrong. They can all do a decent enough job there - but they're all deffo player that naturally play further forward/a different game to the guy who's only thought is murdering anybody that dares to go near the defenders behind him.

I hope he’s more Gareth Barry and less Fabian Delph.

Agreed. He'll be in and around the squad this month but he hasn't played any football for well over a year. He'll be eased back in but you need to have played double figures in games on the bounce to be proper match fit.

Look at Garner, he has looked well off it so far.

[TheRam]

Not played proper football for over a year, turns up injured.

I’d be very pleased if he’s more Barry than Delph.

[Bluebridge]

Has he not played for over a year?

[NickNack]

Has he not played for over a year?

He’s not played much but his last Appearance was May this year

[TheRam]

He played 101 minutes of premier league football last season.

[Bluebridge]

He played 101 minutes of premier league football last season.

And what about the cup competitions?

[bigmanbob]

He played 101 minutes of premier league football last season.

How much of that was because he was injured though, I mean its not like Arsenal have a decent midfield is it?

[TheRam]

Maybe you can have a look for yourselves lads?

It’s not hard to see the minutes he got and where he got those minutes to see he’s basically had a year off.

Just a lot of expectation on him considering how little football he played last season.
