Youth team development

Asterix

I would hope to see Patino in the Prem next season, but it could also feasibly be as a loan player at another club. He does look very talented so good luck to him.

I am Arsenal Till I Die

For anyone interested, Wilshere's under 18s are playing City U18s in the FA youth cup live on Arsenal player right now.

City are down to 10 men and Rosiak has just scored the resulting freekick to put us up 1-0.

In the build up to the move that resulted in Samuel getting sent off, Cozier-Dubery was brilliant. Reminds me so much of Saka.

i started watching the game from the 25' on and it just finished with us winning in stoppage time of the extra time (121'). we did not look good at all. attackers were absolute shit, city looked better than them with 10 men for most of the game.

banduan

That forward line is not gonna make it here 😐

Meatwad

i like lewis-skelly though, developing into a nice press-resistant 6/8.

Big Willie

Meatwad like lewis-skelly though, developing into a nice press-resistant 6/8.

Yeah, been impressed with him every time I've seen him. Kinda going under the radar a bit when being looked at next to some of the flashier guys but he looks really interesting.

Cozier Duberry too. Very interesting talent

Meatwad

not for me.

Meatwad why not out of interest? Criticism seems to be that his decision making isn’t where it needs to be, but he has a great ability to turn players inside out

Meatwad Cozier or Skelly?

lorddulaarsenal
he just seems more interested in turning players inside out. a lot of young players can do that. freestylers too. i'm more interested in decision making when they're that small.

Meatwad soz, didn't scroll up much.

out there looking like ben arfa and that's not a compliment.

Tbf you see that a lot in youth team football but you’d expect more from supposedly one of our biggest youth team talents.

Not been that impressed by him relative to the hype but he’s only 16 I guess.

QuincyAbeyie

Arsenal fans talking this way about a 16-year-old kid would've never happened if it wasn't for the rumors that he might leave. 😆

goon

Nothing to do with that. He’s being judged critically because of the hype, reputation and his record breaking first team debut. The 2 youth team games I’ve watched since then have been specifically to see him in action.

There’s plenty others I’m not particularly impressed by but then they don’t warrant any comment.

I don’t actually think our current crop of youngsters look great.

goon including Lewis-Skelly and Cozier-Duberry?

I've barely seen much of those two even, so I'm curious.

Lewis-Skelly looks promising tbf so he may be one to keep an eye on.

Duberry looks good in flashes but I always think if you’re going to make it you need to be tearing it up in youth team football at this stage. Nelson was a force of nature at the same age.

Could be wrong though, it’s quite unpredictable how players adapt to the first team.

Ok Nwaneri looks quality in those highlights.
