No rumours this time of year
So a little question for anyone that still reads this site :
Which of the youth players in our current crop could or will start making an impact on the first team this season?

My opinions are: most likely, zelalem, akpom, eisfeild, gnabry and Bellerin
With players like jack jebb, Isaac hadyen, Jon toral, dejan iliev, Dan Crowley and Julio pleguzuleo all eventually making a break through over the next two seasons as players like sagna arteta podolski and rosicky fade into retirement

So podolski wil be 30 and your talking about his retirement at the peak of his career

Zelalem is unreal for his age, gnabry is also good and I think would be getting the same praise if he was 16 too. Crowley will be a few years away still, isn't he 15?

For me them 3 are the best prospects and Akpom deserves a mention with the pre season he had.

Zelalem, Gnarby Apkom will get starts this season - Carling Cup - that is for sure and if all 3 continue with their development each will be regulars, within 3 seasons. Zelalem is the one that has me most excited however, the boy can see a pass and more importantly, make it

I've not been impressed with Zelalem or Gnabry when I've seen them play, yes I'm aware they are still pups, I bet you all that they'll end up playing at some lower league club somewhere across Europe by the time they are 23.
