"Profesor" blames "heavyweight" Chamberlain for leaving Arsenal to join Liverpool

VIỆT HÙNG |

Before the highlight match of round 19 of the Premier League between Arsenal and Liverpool, coach Arsene Wenger had a few messages to his once beloved student Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.

Before leaving Arsenal to choose Anfield as his destination, Chamberlain received very sincere advice from coach Wenger. According to the "Profesor", the English midfielder needs to clearly determine whether he can take an official position if he comes to Liverpool.

Chamberlain will meet Arsenal again tonight for the first time since he left the Emirates in August. The midfielder once shared that he left Arsenal to go to a club ready to give him the opportunity to play as a central midfielder instead of playing on the wing.

However, life was not as dreamy, all hopes of the 24-year-old midfielder before they could shine quickly died. Since the beginning of the season, he has only played 5 times in the Kop squad in the Premier League.

In those few appearances, Chamberlain's performances have been consistently rated as average or poor.

As for coach Wenger, he shared that he himself was not surprised when Chamberlain moved to Liverpool. However, "The Professor" also sent many words to his former student with the intention of reprimanding him.

"In a big club, you have to compete a lot with big players, that's normal. How will you become a big player if you just sit on the bench and say you don't want to fight? ", Wenger shared.

The French coach also admitted that selling Chamberlain serves mainly the club's financial purposes. The English midfielder is one of only four players with 12 months left on his contract in the summer transfer window, including Alexis Sanchez, Mesut Ozil, Jack Wilshere and Oxlade-Chamberlain.

"To be honest, the club still wants to create conditions for him to stay but his decision is to leave, we have to respect that.

And then we have to do something to make the club make the most profit with the best transfer fee. I think he is still developing and will become a mainstay of the England team in the future," Wenger shared.

The match between Arsenal and Liverpool in round 19 of the Premier League will take place at Emirates Stadium at 2:45 a.m. on December 23, Vietnam time.
