Be interesting to see if he's made available in January and we make another attempt. I doubt he'll remain frozen out at Arsenal like, but you never know.

He's not THAT good.
Only slightly better than Kenny I would say.

Apparently arsenal in talks with aurier...If he signs, maitland-niles will not be a happy bunny...

He prefers to play in midfield, BIG Sam stated that on transfer day - he had him on loan for WBA last season on the stipulation he only played in midfield .....
Never noticed him TBH - move on .....

Think we were looking for him because he could cover a couple of positions in midfield rather than as a RB,as you say he's on record as saying he doesn't want to play there.

No mate. Kenny really has regressed. If you're judging him against the player he was 3/4 years ago you're way off.

Maitland Niles was the best player on the pitch in an F A Cup final between Arsenal and Chelsea 15 months ago and was also in the England squad around the same time. JJK is really a million miles away from that level. And I've been a big supporter of the lad in this forum over the years.

Not saying Maitland-Niles is our long term answer at right back. But our squad would be a lot stronger than it is now if he was in it given he can cover left back too.

Its a near certainty that Arteta is gone by January. I don’t think he makes it to October. If he gets thrashed by Spurs he won’t even make it to the morning after the game.

if - big if- AMN gets serious playing time, whoever is the manager, then maybe he stays. Otherwise I would think that a new boss with his own targets in mind would take advantage of a willing buyer.

Got till the next International break (which is then) to turn things around apparently.

If he is crap Arteta has spared us and backed himself into a corner to play a crap player, nice one puppet face.
