his effort and flaw is consistent since day one. Like I say, his learning curve is stagnant, the way he plays now is exactly the same as the way he debut.

All round game hasn’t improve and certainly in no way becoming an awful player compare to last season.

There are many aspect he can improve for sure, but do we have a management team to guide his next stage of development is another story.
 

He was pretty terrible in possession but without the ball he was excellent with his work rate and willingness to make runs. Think he needs a run in the team to show his best.
 
Stop moaning everyone. The kid is 19 and out of form. He came back in for the first time last night after a long break out the side. He played ok and we got a win most of us didn't really expect.

I'd much rather see a kid make errors trying to do the right things, than an experienced pro coasting through and hiding for large periods. He is aggressive, carries the ball, and can take it on the spin. These are attributes Schneiderlein can't do. His passing is not at the required standard. I accept that. But it will improve if he is grounded and works hard. It is no surprise to me that the team as a unit perform better when he is there. Not to mention Gueye is twice the player than the crab he turns into alongside Morgan.

You moaners deserve the Gueye Schneiderlein axis of doom.
 

I think he refreshed a bit yesterday after being out of the squad for a while. He will improve defo. Is 19 and was out of form and knackered back in December.
 
I'd rather he played every game behind / next to the striker than Rooney. At least he is actually quick enough to get back into midfield when it's needed.

I think he actually has better decision making than Barkley, I know he can lose the ball pretty quickly but at least he's making that decision to try and start something quick, whereas Barkley would just hold onto the ball far too long.
 
He was the quickest player on the pitch last night (on average) and covered the most ground (12.4k) for us. That's 1.05 km more than Gana, who was nearest to him.

That midfield three we played last night is the one that should be starting the majority of games. It's got balance and a bit of everything.

And Klaassen, now he's here, needs to be given a chance when any injuries come in - especially to Davies.

Him and Davies should be the ones rotating in the box-to-box role if needed.
 

I don't know what game the moaners were watching. True, I'm biased since I absolutely love the lad. But he's been trying to be positive all game and with that there'll necessarily be mistakes, especially at 19. And in the last minutes he was absolutely marvelous, played all the right passes to keep Leicester off the ball, took that silly foul by Albrighton like a veteran, made fools of their players when he was showing the ref that they were within 10 yards during free kicks. He ran his heart out, closed down Schmeichel with a sprint in the 94th minute. What else do you want from him? He's a 19 year old playing central midfield in a team that's been god awful for most parts of the season. When I was 19 year old I would've been a mess, bored or frustrated off me head. Good on him. Kick on, Davo!

These. He gets stuck right in, combative, draws fouls and gets us on the front foot constantly. He deffo is filling out. I love seeing him in the side, I think he’ll turn into a beast over the next couple of seasons.

Play a midfield three consistently as it gets the best out of our players:

Schneiderlin or Gana for the sitting role (Gana first choice)

Davies or Klaassen for the box-to-box role

Rooney or Gylfi for the playmaker role

We've also get Beni in reserve.

I have no doubt Schneiderlin will play at the Emirates and in all truth, that doesn't bother me as such.

But in the vast majority of games, where we should be getting on the front foot, the players who started last night need to play.

Schneiderlin came on and did well and if that's his role, that's fine. If he wants to be starting again he needs to work harder.
