Arsenal hero Nicholas slaughters Cazorla

Former Arsenal striker Charlie Nicholas has slammed the quality of midfielder Santi Cazorla.

Nicholas believes the fleet-footed midfielder has failed to pull his weight since joining from Malaga in 2012 for around £16million.

He said: "I'm probably going to upset some Arsenal fans with certain names. Cazorla's been an eye-catcher but he's not simply good enough for Arsenal.

"He's got magical feet, he's got the talent to play at Arsenal but he doesn't turn up in the big games. It's up to the players to show fight.

"Who gets stick? Mesut Ozil, Theo Walcott, Olivier Giroud, Jack Wilshere; never, ever him [Cazorla].

"I expect more from him because he's talented."
