ferguson hype mystifies me. i know he's had his moments, but more often than not he looks anonymous. he doesn't get on the end of a ton of chances and his hold-up and link-up play have long way to go. i know he's got a flamethrower, but so do a lot of players. cant help but think someone is going to dump £120m on him for the next andy carroll.

What he's doing at his age is remarkable.

It's his profile. Tall, fast, strong, smart and projection to get better. He's a PL star at 19 in a role that hard.

But I wouldn't blame you for not seeing it. Usually, his profile is likened to Giroud because many Arsenal fans to date don't get what Giroud brought. So, strikers of a similar profile still rub this fanbase the wrong way.

That's why it's very surprising that people have warmed up to a Xhaka profile early. We don't usually get it until later.
