ffs

lol a wild Diaby appears

by Jay29 Fri Oct 17, 2014 12:22 pm

@theowalcott skips past four and crosses to @SergeGnabry whose shot is blocked 0-0 (4)

@AbouVDIABY and Crowley combine well to find @theowalcott in the box but he shoots inches wide 0-0 (20)

Iwobi replaces Walcott at half-time.

Zelalem replaces Gnabry after 60 minutes.

Diaby subbed after 67 minutes.

GOAL FOR ARSENAL!

Dan Crowley beats his man inside the box and finishes well to equalise (11) 1-1

GOAL FOR ARSENAL! Crowley again!

The ball falls kindly for Crowley in the area and he coolly dinks the ball past the keeper. Arsenal ahead! (19) 2-1

Frank Mikal puts Anderlecht back ahead, squeezing his low shot inside the far post (36) 2-3

Goal for Anderlecht. Andy Kawaya finishes a good move with a first-time shot from the edge of the area. (39) 2-4

Highlights of our 3-0 win over Stoke:

Maitland-Niles casually curling one in from 30 yards.

Also, is it me or does Gnabry look a little chunky? hmm

I really really wish they didn't show a damn replay of every play no matter how shit it is, they could try and fit a few more clips in instead Rolling Eyes

Niles has a good shot judging by that but it's always the same with him, shoots from a million miles out every time when we have a 3 v 3 or other similar situations. Our youngsters play very greedy, he is by no means the only one. Iwobis goal looked good.

by Jay29 Fri Oct 31, 2014 3:22 pm

Another two goals for Crowley tonight, including a last minute winner.

Crowley's goal: https://vine.co/v/OO3AmJ3mFrZ

Another game another goal. This kid's on fire. Wonder how long it'll be before he's considered, seriously, in the first team.

by RealGunner Sat Nov 08, 2014 6:35 am

Meet Ryan Huddart. Our 17 year old GK standing next to Wilshere

Afobe will return to Arsenal after his loan spell

10m at least if he scores 30+ ffs

by urbaNRoots Fri Nov 14, 2014 9:43 am

Would be interesting if Afobe can turn it around and have a career at Arsenal. Man was hyped back at the days, wanted by Barcelona and all that.

by EL Patron Fri Nov 14, 2014 11:21 am

Arsene will say but I have Sanogo who is a fantastic striker Laughing

by Sri Wed Nov 26, 2014 5:35 am

Dobson, 17, is a regular for Arsenal Under-18s and the under-19 Uefa Youth League side.

The Havering-born youngster also made his debut for the club’s under-21s this term, in a 2-1 defeat by Newcastle in September.

A composed centre back, Dobson can play as a holding midfielder too.

Everyone at Arsenal would like to congratulate George on his first professional contract. We look forward to his continued progression with the club.

In before he is possesed by Song.

Where is Gnabry ?, don't tell me he is injured as well

by Jay29 Mon Dec 01, 2014 1:57 pm

Arsenal U21s beat Brighton U21s 4-0. Chuba Akpom scored a hat-trick. He now has 28 goals in 38 apps for the U21s.

by EL Patron Tue Dec 02, 2014 3:08 pm

Akpom should be playing senior football somewhere, would be a waste if he spent the entire season in the reserves.

Noooooo
pls keep him

by Jay29 Mon Dec 15, 2014 6:26 am

Our U19s will play Atletico Madrid in the UEFA Youth League last 16. The winner play the winner of Zenit/Chelsea.

by MJ Mon Dec 15, 2014 1:12 pm

Akpom dangerous according to Arsenal Twitter. A few chances, assisted one, had a goal ruled out for AFC U-21 vs Bolton U-21

Wonder why he's behind Sanogo in the pecking order, even if the Frenchman offers physicality, surely his form would warrant a loan move to a competitive side?

Ainsley Maitland-Niles - The New Generation:

by RealGunner Fri Dec 19, 2014 1:32 pm

Goal for Arsenal! Crowley buries the penalty into the bottom corner. A deserved lead for the young Gunners (65) 1-0

Arsenal Vs Reading Youth cup match

by Sina Mon Dec 29, 2014 8:26 am

Daniel Crowley - The New Generation:

by DuringTheWar Mon Jan 05, 2015 1:01 pm

Arsenal twitter: Goal for @Arsenal Under-21s! Crowley sends a powerful free-kick into the top corner from 25 yards (43) 2-0

Another goal for Crowley, sounds like a special one. Seen him play this season and I can understand why he hasn't got his chance in the first team yet like zelalem, Maitland niles, ect, he is very talented but physically weak and where he plays in the final third you have to handle defenders.
