    I heard that Cedric Evina is a real talent, and that Conor Henderson has chosen to play for Ireland ahead of England. Are they both good players?

  2. jeorge9 Says:

    yeah they’re both good, but i thought conor henderson was going to play for england?

  3. eduardo Says:

    Do you know anything about schoolboy Graeme Hegarthy.

    I think Conor Henderson and Oliver Nicholas have chosen to play for England over Ireland

    One other question, Warren Barton the ex Newcastle player said on SKY a while back that his nephew is a schoolboy with Arsenal and I was wondering have you any info on the lad

  4. jeorge9 Says:

    i’ve heard of hegarthy but don’t know too much about him to be honest. Yeah i think your right about henderson and nicholas and hopefully they’ll get more chances at arsenal. as for warren barton’s nephew, i’m not too sure, i’ve probably heard of the player but wouldn’t know if he’s related to him or not.

  5. Jon Says:

    Do you have any idea who these two 14 year old schoolboy players were that Arsena Wenger referred to this week when he said they were complety players and there was no more that they could be taught technically?

  6. Malcolm Says:

    Is a Frimpong a quality player? The only things I’ve heard of him is he has been called up to England U-16 and is a big center midfielder. What are his strengths and weaknesses? Does he have what it takes at Arsenal?
    PS This site is great a big help to a Gooner curious about the future.

  7. jeorge9 Says:

    Frimpong is a player in the Patrick Vieira mould, he uses his physique to bustle past players and can score the occasional long range strike. He gets tired quite easily though

  8. Rocky4everGoooonaaa Says:

    I’ve heard thatr Rhema Obed haver left the club…

  9. jeorge9 Says:

    yeah i’m not sure if that’s true or not, but i think he’s still here

  10. revolter Says:

    Who is Rorie Deacon?

  11. jeorge9 Says:

    he is a winger who plays for the u-16s

  12. Anonymous Says:

    conor henderson is a year above me at school (Colfe’s School) and he is choosing to play for Ireland over England. Real talent has been playing for our school team with boys 3 years older than him at times and has dealt with the physical aspect of the game really well. Should be one for the future! gotta try and convince him to play for england now!

  13. Rocky4everGoooonaaa Says:

    How old is that Deacon guy?

  14. JAYDONE Says:

    Igo to school with deacon he’s sixteen fast, atheltic and has tremendous passing ability

  15. Malcolm Says:

    Is Jack Wilshire a left or right winger? Do u think he could he the future right winger after Hleb leaves/retires? Cuz Wenger has said Walcott will be a striker, and Hleb has said he wants to retire at Arsenal which i imagine would be at around 33/34, which would make Wilshire about 24. If you don’t think this will happen, who will be the next right winger? Barazite? Randall?

  16. jeorge9 Says:

    wilshere generally plays more centrally but can play wide-right as well. I think watt has done well when he has played there and ogogo can push into that position too, having said that, i feel it is very unlikely that a youth player will fill the role because by that time we probably will have bought somebody else. Jonas Rasmussen can play there too, by the way. He did today.

  17. SANDY Says:

    Theres speculation that fran merida wont make it at arsenal because his loan move can be made permanent, which if wenger thought highly of him, wouldnt be included.

    its a shame because he was touted as the next fabregas

  18. Sean Says:

    Frans loan move can not be made permanant.AW has said that he will be part of the 1st team next season.

  19. johnjo Says:

    have you heard of jason banton as he is on the fa page but not urs

  20. jeorge9 Says:

    banton signed for tottenham last month

  21. johnjo Says:

    why did he sign for tottenham, do we have a good replacement

  22. jeorge9 Says:

    yes, we have luke freeman who came in just after banton left and we got £100,000 for Banton which was a good deal to be honest.

  23. johnjo Says:

    who is better freeman or banton

  24. jeorge9 Says:

    freeman has more potential, but banton is a powerful out and out goalscorer. it’s difficult to say at this early stage, but i definitely think that freeman has the potential to be a top quality player. As for Banton, will he turn into another Rohan Ricketts?

  25. Paul Witham Gooner Says:

    What age group is Benek affobe in. How good is he.

  26. jeorge9 Says:

    benik plays for the u-16s. he was born in 1993, so he will be a scholar not next season, but the season after that.

  27. Malcolm Says:

    So what would you say the first team is for the U-18s is with everyone fit? Seems to me that it is this:
    GK:Szczesny
    LB: Evina
    RB: Eastmond
    CB: Hoyte, Rodgers
    LW: Watt
    CM: Thomas, Frimpong
    RW: Wilshire
    ST: Sunu, Murphy
    Am I right about this?

  28. jeorge9 Says:

    i think you’re close, but i think the actual team would be:

    ———–Szczesny——————
    –Eastmond—Bartley——-Cruise—-Evina
    –Lansbury—Frimpong——-Wilshere—–Thomas
    —————Sunu———–Murphy

    However, sometimes players like ogogo, hoyte, rodgers etc may play to boost their fitness. sanchez watt could be played ahead of sunu perhaps.

  29. Malcolm Says:

    So Frimpong is defensive and Wilshire attacking?

  30. jeorge9 Says:

    yeah, exactly

  31. Jack Says:

    Conor Henderson has been valued by Arsenal at £1million, as aparently Chelsea and Tottenham made inquiries for him

  32. jako Says:

    do you cormac heegarty plays 4 the 16s

  33. jeorge9 Says:

    do you know anything else about him?

  34. jako Says:

    yh he goes to my school he has played a few games for irland

  35. jeorge9 Says:

    what position does he play?

  36. jako Says:

    left back he has been injred lately but he told me he is back soon

  37. johnjo Says:

    is it true jason banton is back????

  38. deepak Says:

    Jason Banton scored for Arsenal U16’s today

    3-3 draw, as did Benik Afobe

  39. johnjo Says:

    have u heard of someone with the second name glasgow

  40. jeorge9 Says:

    yes, ben glasgow is a full-back for the under-16s

  41. johnjo Says:

    is he good?

  42. jeorge9 Says:

    he’s a decent player but very young so he needs to be given time

  43. cliff thorburn Says:

    word on the streets says that this wee fella jack wilshere is pants-fillingly sensational. more titbits of succulent gossip on him please, including home vids uploaded to youtube and details of his exploits on the training pitch. word

  44. Young Gunz Says:

    Deacon’s english not dutch

  45. Johnny Maverik Says:

    Wenger said that a couple of the U16s had nothing left to learn technically in his opinion, any idea who he mite have been talkin about?

    Wilshire is great, he’ll go on to be a premier league player at the very least, but i think he easily has the potential to be a great Arsenal and England player, he just needs to keep progressing like he is. Whats great about him is hes the compleate package, great shot, great passer, can take men on and goes looking for the ball aswell, although his defencive attributes arent quite as impressing and at only 1.70m and quite slight i doubt hes physically ready for a first team start just yet, but hes not far off i dare say.

  46. jeorge9 Says:

    young gunz, i was referring to nacer barazite. i did a post a little while ago about who the players wenger was referring to. one of them is zack ansah, whilst the other is unknown but it could be anton morgan

  47. Jamie Says:

    Ben Glasgow is a quick, mature right back or centre half with excellent tackling ability.

    Has anyone heard of Josh Reece????

  48. jeorge9 Says:

    i think you’re referring to josh rees, he’s a left-winger with an eye for goal.

  49. Jamie Says:

    Josh Rees it it. Captain for Essex u14’s county side. Plays centre mid for them. How is he progressing for Arsenal??

    And what about his centre midfield partner Callub Webb??

  50. Jamie Says:

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^

    Callum Webb!!

  51. jeorge9 Says:

    webb has excellent passing ability and has a fantastic work-ethic, whilst josh rees scored for arsenal in the nike cup.

  52. Joe Says:

    Is Tommy Twelves good

  53. jeorge9 Says:

    he has potential but he is still very young so we’ll have to wait and see how things turn out.

  54. Joe Says:

    is he the best in his team and where does he play

  55. jeorge9 Says:

    he is a midfielder but i have only seen him once so i’m not sure if he’s the best but he showed flashes of brilliance.

  56. Joe Says:

    what game did you see him play

  57. dont mind Says:

    come zack ansah !!!!

  58. Joe Says:

    who is the best player in the under 14s

  59. jeorge9 Says:

    at the moment i would have to say zack ansah, he is rated very highly.

  60. sean Says:

    who is the best player in the u13s?
