Although Arsenal's past players have thrived after leaving, Rob Holding's experience at Crystal Palace highlights the challenges he faces after his transfer. Initially expected to start, the defender has fallen out of favor with manager Oliver Glasner, facing a fallout over a refusal to participate in a warming down session. Since then, Holding has been training with the youth team and not considered for the first team, showcasing the difficulties players can encounter when changing clubs.
Holding's struggles at Crystal Palace starkly contrast with his previous success at Arsenal, where he enjoyed two FA Cup victories. This underscores a significant transition as he moves from being a part of trophy-winning teams to facing challenges with team selection and managerial relationships. He was brought into Palace hoping for revitalization but instead found himself on the sidelines, demonstrating the unpredictability of player transfers and the football career trajectory.
