Jenkinson needs to learn or risk falling down the leagues

Submitted by fred149 on Wed, 16/12/2015 - 13:10

Another game gone a decent point against stoke and another clean sheet with Tomkins at right back. Now while Tomkins wont offer you much going forward, he can defend which in my opinion is more important. Think I saw a stat saying we haven't conceded a goal this season while Tomkins is at right back. Now like Cresswell, Jenks loves to get forward now I see many people saying Jenks has just hit a bad run of form. What I cannot understand is how someone who has been given so many chances this season still makes the same mistakes every time he plays. The amount of goals that have been directly at the fault by Jenkinson this season almost hits double figures if it hasn't already. This all started from the Leicester and Bournemouth games where both our full backs has a torrid time. Now what irritates me most is since then you have two ends of the scale from both our full backs. You have Jenkinson who refuses to learn and Cresswell who in my opinion is getting better and better with every game and looks like Bilic has been working on his defensive side. So why can't Jenkinson also learn? Can he not learn? Or do you think Bilic isn't as interested in teaching jenks the basics. Tomkins at right back on saturday was a big statement by Bilic with reid injured. Is Jenkinsons time done at the club? One things for sure he needs to stop making the same mistakes otherwise his career will be short lived at this level.

What is this?? How did you hear about that? Maybe Cress has been the better performer and improved more aspects of his game because he is committed to the club whereas Jenks is still an Arsenal boy

Its tomkins for me at right back,apparently hes played there 4 times this season & every game has been a clean sheet!Jenks had a decent season last year but hes had a mare this season!

I've said loads of times Tomkins in for jenks. Maybe jenks signing a new contract has ruined him. Perhaps his attitude changed when he signed it. Feeling he didn't need to prove himself any more. If He doesn't get a grip he will end up the same as Moses being loaned about to every Tom dick or Harry. Or even worse shining his arse on the bench of arsenal reserves. I'm sure wenger isn't impressed by this seasons displays

Come on Burkie!! you don't know who "The Game" is? 13 time world champion, major player during the attitude era, and married to the bosses daughter. Not bad when the boss happens to be ridiculously rich.
I'll admit I did use to watch the wrestling for a number of years and Tiple H was my fave. Rapt he's a Hammer!

as right-back Tomkins is doing great things. Bilic know that has potential and it is reliable. Jenkinson will have to work hard if he wants his place in the team
