I like the man and wish him well, but his consistency really lets him down.

I disagree, he's been playing well since the start of the year.
Like I say, he takes some getting used to and Arteta uses him well IMO. He's not a midfielder, he's a forward of some type but not a number ten and definitely not a winger. Hence why people are so confused by him. He's surprising physical and wins more duels that he should considering how skinny he is.
The Ben White goal on Monday sums him up. He makes a striker type run, pulls the ball out of sky with great control and lays it off to Benny Blanco to apply the finish. Arteta uses him as a target and decoy and he doing well in the role
