From what i can tell only Patino & Okonkwo have good seasons so far.

Tierneys season seems unlucky so far but I’m hopeful it could still change with Real Sociedad progressing in the CL, there should be playing time at some point. And at least he was on the bench on their last game.

Lokonga has a nightmare of a season, the players that are put infront of him are way below first League level and he doesn’t even make the bench. I think he needs to change to a league that leaves up more Space for the Midfielders. I neither see him at Arsenal nor at a different PL Club.

Tavares should pray for total chaos at Nottingham, Cooper seems to already have written him off. I really wanna see him play in the PL. He isn’t consistent but he is a playertype that has big moments.

What about Marquinhos? I don’t get why he doesn’t even make the bench for Nantes since 2 months. I rate him and hoped he would be a Saka-Backup in 1-3 years. He clearly has talent.

I appreciate your thought and insights.

    At this point, I don’t have much hope for any of those loanees. Apart from Patino, tierney too but the brother is always injured.

    A shame about sambi, not sure why, but I had high hopes for him when he came in lol. If he’s not making the bench at Luton then maybe it’s more than just a talent thing…

      We need to move on from Sambi and as much as I love him Vieira. We are operating at a different level now. They won’t make it. Tierney is brittle. Patino and Marquinhos are worth spending time on. Have no idea about Okonkwo but he is unlikely to make it if Ramsdale is struggling. Let him come back and we sell if we can.

      Tavares I actually agree. He has a physicality and chaos factor that we can use in some games. I hope he becomes useful. Having said that, with Timber Zinny Tomi KT I don’t know where we fit him. He’s also going to get sold in the summer. Or maybe we sell KT and retain him? I don’t think Arteta is a fan of chaos. He needs mature players with very very calm heads. Nuno won’t ever be that imo.
