He's had his share of stinkers for Leicester this season as well in amongst the decent performances. And Keown was right about his lack of mobility though it's not going to be that much of an issue if you're playing three at the back compared to the typical Wenger setup where the CB's are left exposed.
I agree, Chambers is a right back anyway, that's where he played his 22 games at Southampton, what made us think we could turn him into a CB? Holding was plucked out of a lower division from a side that got relegated, there's no real evidence he's any good. It reminds me of the Jenkinson signing, people were raving about him for a while until they realised he was not much good.

Hard to change the majority of the young players that had to play under Wenger. Ruined psychologically, physically (most are injury probe) and none have matured tactically. Every last one of them were tactically naive.
I agree, they've had to conform to certain methods, train a certain way, be played out of position, often players whose confidence is ruined never comeback to what they were before. I personally think we needed to start again in a number of departments, I'm not convinced many of these players can recover/adapt to the new methods, this wasn't some normal club where managers came and went, one guy was here for 22 years deciding everything.
Not a surprise the guy still doesn't have a job despite these reports that everyone was after him.
Juve are very close to signing Ronaldo.
