"Maitland-Niles' best position is central defensive midfielder," the Frenchman continued.
"He has great quality, he can steal the ball without making fouls. I believe he is ready to play. He has a great future."

Better off asking his Mum to be honest, safer bet. |  |

I think criticism of him when he was here was largely unwarranted.
We took a 17 year old in his first season in professional football, who started off well and faded.
Surprised about the DM position mentioned here, but he has been playing fullback/wingback for Arsenal this season in some games so Wenger must see some defensive qualities to his game. |  | | |

He has played there for England but I always find he's too static on the ball to do it well - is better suited as a wing back for me as is blisteringly fast and carries the ball so well |  |

He was always very game at defending. I remember he was another put in the bracket of "Mick ruining him and making him defensive". Seen him play it for Aresnal a few times and doesnt look out of place. He actually switched mid game to that role and i remember the commentator actually saying he was much more comfortable there and played very well. |  |

I don’t care really, he doesn’t play for us anymore. 😂 |  | | |

What does Wenger know about defending? |  | | |

Comparing the 2 I would say nydam looks a better prospect from what i have seen |  |

Very good at doing his upmost to prevent us winning at Huddersfield away 15/16. Came on as sub when they were down to 10 men and had less energy / desire to be out on that pitch than me with a hangover on a Sunday morning kick off. Absolute disgrace that day, would have loved to have met him after the game and had a word. |  | | |

Buckets of talent, it just needs pointing in the right direction. Arsenal is not the place to do that any more. |  |
