Arsenal currently have nine young players who might genuinely make the grade (Nketiah, Willock, Saka, Nelson, Guendouzi, Balogun, Martinelli, Saliba and Emile Smith-Rowe). Of those, there are at least 3 with genuine world class potential. I'd argue 4, if Nelson can finally begin to kick on. Chelsea have a similar number.

Youth is being handled better than a decade ago, with much less focus on hype and early lucrative contracts and 18 year old super Jack's playing 45 games in a season. Doesn't mean the talent isn't there.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Lol I actually forgot Ainsley Maitland-Niles. 10. We have 10 players who should make the grade. And that's ignoring the talents lower in the youth ranks like Azeez.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
What grade are you referring to as other than Martinelli and perhaps Saka no one else will get in a PL CL team squad.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I suppose you've watched a lot of Arsenal's games at a senior level as well as having followed the youth players for years in the development squads and you've been keeping up to date with the likes of Leeds, Huddersfield, Saint Ettiene and Hoffenheim?

Or perhaps you're just posturing. Hard to tell.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
No need to get touchy. If we had hopes of Ainsley Maitland-Niles making the grade in my team I would be very worried.

Brewster in a month has already matched Nketiah championship goal tally while playing for Swansea.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
If there is an other good youth prospect playing for another club, that means there are no other youth prospects in world football.

And Amn has an awful lot going for him. The biggest question is finding his position and letting him grow into it.

Trent is the only one that's proved himself at the highest level...the rest are still pretty much raw potential.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Trent is the best in the world in his position. No other player can say that on this list.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Behave, he can’t defend. Tonight proved that, he was fecking shocking, as was his pall on the other side.
