It looks like we'll be holding Holding

He's not one of my favourites because of his inconsistencies and lack of actual defensive abilities but the I must admit that the guy has improved in recent times to become a mainstay in the squad. He's not the best around but he's top-level quality and a decent squad player that has at least kept David Luiz out of the team, so that's a positive.

Rumour spreading on the internet is that Rob Holding has penned a new contract at the Ems, thus extending his time with us. I like the idea of rewarding important players in the team and I also think that he's on the right trajectory to becoming a solid and dependable defender for the team.

When Saliba returns at the end of the season, we'll be stocked with a plethora of young and capable defenders. A part of the field that was once lacking quality and depth suddenly seems to be packed with efficient hands(legs?) for the job.

Rob was signed from Bolton when he was only a teenager, so he's been in and around the team for a while. He has a lot of promise while coming up but that has been stifled by a series of injuries. Now fit and playing regularly, he's finally showing us what Wenger saw in him from the start. Until we meet again, Up the Arsenal.
