What is Zelalem's best position? Seems to play all over the place. I don't know if that's because they don't know his best position or if it's to develop his game. He looks a centre mid to me.
It's neither, it's "the Arsenal way" 🙂 .
I also think he's a center mid. And DC to me is way more likely to break through. Hope he doesn't suffer wilsheritis when he's 20..
Zelalem looks like he'd be best of as the middle man in a midfield three

Impressive to be getting a CL game at 17.
Might aswell add his CL performance to that.
Looks to be a talent. Lovely feet, crisp passing, looked good defensively against Gala. We could do with a good deep midfield player coming through.
Is he actually a deep midfielder though? In Rayman's video he's very advanced.
He was a winger/attacking mid until recently, I think. Doesn't matter all that much where you play in the youth team though. He played midfield for the senior team.
Gibbs was a winger/midfielder for our youth teams and I think Ashley Cole was actually a striker at first.
Really good skill set and passing ability. I thought in the same game Zelalem looked much more lightweight.
Frimpong was better at the same age coming though but the 2 ACL injuries really killed him.
His moustache looked on point versus Galatasaray.
Like the clips. He certainly knows how to find the back of the net (as well as the framework).
Only youngster I'm completely sure of at the moment is Bellerin. That kid is going to be a star.
You seen Danny C Klaus? He's mega
Nope. Read good things about him though.
Olsson gone permanently

Gutted.
Hope we've claused it up
olsson was never going to make it here, he lacked the physical attributes. a lot of people are too easily impressed by good technique, not realising how common it is. good luck to him, though.
Apparently Zelalem decided to go with the US team, and it makes enough noise there (with Klinsman twitting, talk about fast tracking, etc.).
Some also take the opportunity to mock him/the whole affair. (all over soccernetfc.com, eg.)
Don't think the kid will make it here.
Might upset his German passport playing for the US, if i I remember correctly.
