Feel sorry for Jenkinson

He would have absolutely mopped up this year. By all accounts he is doing very well at West Ham, and at this point he has got a decent bit of premier league experience under his belt. As he has shown at Arsenal, when he gets a decent run in a side he can be quite consistent both defensively and offensively. If he was kept he would have had just as much football for us as he has had at West Ham.

Shame for the lad. Can't blame anyone really, it was the right call, well it would have been if Chambers wasn't also deputising at CB. I expect Jenko to come back in the summer and Bellerin to go out on loan in the other direction to a PL club.

I wuldnt mind having Jenkinson and Bellerin for RB and Chambers as cover for CB atm, but it wold not stop me thinking we need to sign a decent CB.

Yes Bellerin is better because he played very well at home against Newcastle and stoke. Lets see how he does away from home before we start licking him arris out.

Thats true anyway. Debuchy is fly in the ointment.

I'm not Wenger biggest fan right now but whatever he does he will never please all the fans.
I remember 2 seasons ago when Sagna got injured and we had to play Jenko, fans were outraged.
Now suddenly he was worth to keep.
The loan was the right move. He was getting to that age where he needs to play regularly otherwise he won't develop. And he is not good enough to be our main RB

Mate u have it the wrong way round. When Sagna got injured Jenko was playing very well and had fans saying he shouldn't be dropped when Sagna got back fit.

Bellerin has turned into a superstar RB after playing 2 good games at home against teams that don't bother attacking when they visit the emirates.

Bellerin hasn't been tagged with greater potential because of two games. He has better fundamentals. He is faster, better dribbler and covers better (interceptions) ie spots danger. I always wanted Jenko to be given a chance after Sagna left. Whatever you may say abt Wenger, he is still supreme at spotting young talent. Now thats no guarantee to whether Bellerin will develop. But thats true for Jenko as well. I wonder if Jenko can adapt to a different position. But at the moment I think most would say that Bellerin has better end point than Jenko if they both develop at equal rates.

A lot of people finding it hard to read today. I clearly wrote that it was the right move at the beginning of the season but I feel sorry for THE PLAYER, as he would have played a full season at right back for his beloved club due to Debuchy's injuries. I am not blaming anyone for anything or calling anyone rubbish.

So Bellerin might have better potential, but he is not a better player than Jenkinsion for the moment. Why can we only have two players who can play at right back? Is there not room for both Jenkinson and Bellerin at the club? I get the impression that Jenkinson would sit on the bench for his entire career if it meant it was at Arsenal, but would be prepared to give 110% when he gets on the pitch. He's a half decent player too. Those are the kinds of players we've lacked in recent years

When we play you next, you play bellerin rb and we'll play ibe left wing, deal?

The lad is only 22, and to be honest he is in better place at West Ham than if he was here as I don't trust Wenger's capabilities of improving him (example: Wilshere).

Thankfully he is at West Ham during their best Premier League campaign i have ever seen.
