The Steven Pienaar appreciation thread

Was all over the pitch today, incredible engine.

I like the fact that he works so hard on the pitch but sometimes I feel he is wasteful with his energy. Was amazing last season, this season, only in patches. Still scored some important goals and assists. When he plays well, we play good football.

When Baines plays well, Pienaar plays well and we play good football.

Pienaar is overrated. It's no coincidence that since Baines' form has slipped, Pienaar has been in all sorts.

I've lost count how many times he gets the ball with open space in front of him, only to turn around and pass the ball backwards. Lacks genuine pace.

Get rid, we need another Mirallas.

He's been on the opposite side a lot since Kev came back, Baines not getting Forward anywhere near as much, it happened when arteta came back from injury & then when Baines was carrying an injury.

Quite late on yesterday before they started doing Their Thang.
