Premier League Round Up: Arsenal and Aston Villa – 1 February 2011
Arsenal
Arsenal youngster http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Lorient-c39153 for the remainder of the current season.
The youngster, who plays mainly as a forward, joins Les Merlus to help them get back to the mid-table spot, which they managed in the last season. Arsenal manager, Arsene Wenger fancies signing Ligue 1 players on a regular basis
and Sunu seems to be going in the opposite direction. However, the manager has no plans for the player to make the switch permanent in the summer, as he believes that the 19-year-old has a bright future at the Emirates.
Sunu hails from http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Togo-c3022, but has played for the France U-20 side and spent a loan term with Championship side Derby County in 2010. In his nine appearances for Derby County, the player could not find the back of the net even once,
but learnt a lot under the management of Nigel Clough. Sunu, however, is not the only Gunner who is on loan to Merlus, as Arsenal starlet http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Francis-Coquelin-c13952 is also spending a loan term at the club. The manager believes that both the players would benefit from
the first team experience that they will get at the club and success in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/France-c2899 can guarantee them spot in Arsenal’s starting XI.
Aston Villa
Aston Villa manager, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Fabio-c13152 Capello, has also showered praise on the right-back and believes that Walker
deserves a chance to prove his worth for the International outfit.
Walker has not been able to make his ground at Tottenham Hotspur and spent the first half of the season on loan to Championship leaders Queens Park http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Rangers-c40314. Since his arrival at Villa, Walker enjoyed top-notch form and caused many
problems for Blackburn http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Rovers-c40385 in their FA Cup clash, which the Villans won 3-1.
"I share Fabio's view that Kyle is a possible http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749 player. I don't think he is the finished article yet. But we have given him the chance to play in the Premier League and he has taken it well. I think Kyle knows that he's got
a lot of areas where he can improve,” stated the Villa manager.
Houllier added that the thing he likes about Walker is his positive attitude, as the player is ready to adapt and learn from the experienced members. The manager labelled Kyle as a complete modern full-back, with the ability to
go forward and defend at the same time.
