"Remaining patient has been a recurring theme throughout Eze's career ever since he was released by Arsenal at 13 and then rejected by several other clubs before finding a home at Queens Park Rangers. Yet having made an immediate impression after a 67.5m dream move back to his boyhood club from Crystal Palace that peaked with a memorable hat-trick against Tottenham at the end of November, the goals have dried up completely as Mikel Arteta has seemingly lost faith in the England forward."
"Eze has made 18 appearances in all competitions without scoring since the 4-1 victory over Spurs and found himself restricted to a bit-part role in the Premier League. He was substituted at half-time after an ineffective display against Brentford last week a first league start for almost two months while Bukayo Saka was preferred in the No 10 role against Wolves in midweek."
Eze's motto is 'It's not about now. It's the long game.' Remaining patient has been a recurring theme since release by Arsenal at 13 and rejections before finding Queens Park Rangers. He returned to Arsenal from Crystal Palace in a 67.5m move and produced a hat-trick against Tottenham in November. Since that match he has made 18 appearances without scoring and been limited to bit-part Premier League roles. He was substituted at half-time after an ineffective start against Brentford and lost the No 10 spot to Bukayo Saka. Kai Havertz and Martin degaard returning increases competition as he seeks to force his way back and earn a World Cup place.
