Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain vs Willian

There are no players on Arsenal that are more primed for a breakout year than the man they call Ox. Using the preseason as his canvas, the Ox painted an incredibly vivid image of what we can expect from him this year.

This guy literally has everything. He can dribble the ball with the best, he can compete in any assorted footrace, his foot is a rocket that allows him to score from distance and he has the build and physicality of a defensive midfielder. While the Ox has struggled with injuries and has not managed a consistent season because of that, he has a wide open right flank to dominate all year, and dominate he will.

Willian is not that. He is fast, he is technically sound, but he is not as versatile as the Ox. The one area that Willian has the upper hand is passing, as he is really quality at picking out his team mates and sending them to goal.

Willian is good at a lot of the same things that the Ox is, but when it comes to all-around contribution, the Ox has it. If you needed more proof, just remember that Jose Mourinho was trying to filch the Ox this summer.

Verdict: The Ox. Get ready for a huge year.
