What's everyone think of Debuchy's place at AFC at this moment? Valuable cover? Wantaway/ surplus? Seems to me he could be a useful player in cups/ EL if healthy. You'll recall that he was a starter for France NT before he caught the Arsenal injury bug.

Yes, we should use him. However, I believe he fell out with Wenger and I doubt he will play. Another misuse of funds, as we paid £12m for him, plus £4m a year in wages and I think he has played very few games for us.

He's just not a good player anymore! He had that injury then belleein came good and think his career is over now. Just a series of circumstances with him. I thought at the time it was a good buy for 12m but like RG says he's turned out to be a waste of money and time.

Good player gone bad. Just milking the club now and I don't understand how we still have him.

Contract I think steve. If we can't sell him or get him to annul his contract then I guess we have to honour the contract much in the same way we expect a player we do want in Sanchez mate.

Yeah, impression I get is he's contentedly cashing that check. Must be nice.

Agree sano but I think we may get a bit more value from Sanchez.

To be fair to Debuchy he was doing well until injury gave Belerin his chance which he took 100% and made himself undropable.
Debuchy joined us as a number one right back and simply lost his edge Belerin became immovable.
It's got to be hard to maintain that 100% committed mentality when you know come match day you've no chance of playing, his number 2 keepers do it I don't know, the money they earn is irrelevant as playees are only human no matter how much you pay them.

I just realized that we are all in agreement on Debuchy - a rare occurrence on the page these days! Small victories! Haha.

Your right steve maybe we should offer a £10000 reward in as part of the deal.
