I met cahills agent , around that time, in the Palace tavern at Bromley South.
Lairy f*cker, he had to leave as my mate told him to f*ck off or he was going to spark him out.

It’s kinda irrelevant how Eze is described now. He is on the bench for Arsenal most times and it’s kinda sad. He will drift out of England reckoning. At some point, if a player is clever enough, he will realise that playing for a successful Place side is better than warming an Arsenal or Chelsea bench. Granted, Guehi was always going to be a starter wherever he went. Zaha soon faded into obscurity after he left, twice. Same with Wan Bissaka. However Ian Wright, Sansom all did very well. I guess hope springs eternal. Mateta and Sarr maybe think they are superstars.
I expect Brennan Johnson will be available
Wales are asking for tranfer windows for international teams

I kinda make benteke exempt from that title as bookended at either end of 3 dismal seasons were 2 where he scored 15 and 10 goals (including that volley at the amex) which helped keep us up.

but I imagine we'd still have him back at the right price. He is a game changer and one we could do with.
Like Zaha.

Average or not, he's on the bench
Eze is still in the England set up and went to the WC (unlike other No10s like Palmer and Gibbs White).
Arsenal currently has a WC winner (Merino) on their bench too, so maybe the Arsenal bench is better than average

Eze is an excellent player. He just doesn't suit the current Arsenal. Which was also pretty obvious before he even went there. But there's no telling footballers anything other than what they want to hear.
Fair play, each to their own. Never expected anything other than him to end up on the bench at Arsenal. But to label him average just seems crazy. Outstanding player who lit up Selhurst with some of the most breathtaking moments i've ever witnessed in 40 years of support. Would drag myself to Selhurst purely to watch him at times. Then those FA Cup goals v Stockport, Fulham, Villa & City. All first goals in big games that led to the trophy.
Ben scored 17 goals first season then stopped , but was hardly ever dropped , feel sorry for johnson was all tracking well then the wheels fell off , and now going same way as Dele Ali , Tottenham curse strikes again

Copy and paste to every thread.
Eze follows in a long tradition of talented players in the England who aren’t trusted.
This goes back to the days of Bowles, Hudson, Worthington, Currie,Marsh, Le Tissier etc.
It will ever be thus in my view with the fundamental mistrust of natural talent with more emphasis on what you will lose than what you will gain through inclusion of these players.
With regard to Eze, it obviously can’t be proven, but I genuinely can’t see us having won the FA Cup without him.
It would be more difficult to think of a worse club and worse manager for him to join than Arsenal and Arteta.
A functional, win at all costs approach, with an overindulgence in robust physicality and cheating.
Sure , Arsenal might use him in the League against Hull and Coventry or in cup games, but for important games he’s likely to remain a peripheral figure.
Back on the subject on Sarr, there’s an argument that he’s the only player in the squad that provides a direct threat running in behind with the requisite pace and quality to threaten defences.
I wouldn’t be too keen to move him on until we we can demonstrate that we have at least one proven player who provides the same level of threat.
