This is a forum for posting links to highlights of young gunners (e.G. Lansbury, Miyaichi, Afobe, etc). I'll begin by posting a few links to youtube users that put together excellent game compilations that show every touch of a player in a game. Please post links to newly released highlights of young guns along with a brief description.
Afobe looks like a beast and he just turned 18 in February. I think he has earned Man of the Match in 4 straight games for Huddersfield. I'd love to see highlights of his recent 2 goal game against Brighton. If anyone has it, please post!
The kid works just as hard as anybody else on the pitch, commits everything when he plays and has the technical ability which is often overlooked in English footballers.
Compared to walcott.... Yea he lacks pace.... But overall he aint the slowest player out there.... Imho he needs to beef up like kosy did this season....
That's fair. He seems like the kind of player that runs on confidence. If he can have a few good games early next season, maybe he could end up being our super-sub of 2011-12
Francis Coquelin has been on loan with Lorient this year in Ligue 1 and played against Marseille recently. He played the first half out wide (where he marked Andre Ayew, who is very very good). In the second half he played his more natural defensive central midfield position.

The kid just turned 20. He is tenacious and doesn't back down from anyone in the tackle, but at the same time seems to have a cool head on his shoulders. He also is lightning quick and can run for days. Is he ready to cover for Song next season?
Yeah you are right, he plays right back too. I've heard that lately he is getting looked at as a CDM. Either way, he looks promising. I love the way he plays with pace and endless energy!
This lil' man is gonna' be a beast in 2-3 yrs. Playing with wenger will calm him down and he'll be even more lethal.... Basically I'm glad he's a young sniper with the gunners
Serge Gnabry recently joined the Gunners from Stuttgart. Here are highlights from a U-16 game, Germany vs France. He is #11 and makes a couple incredible passes to release the German striker.
