    Good to see, another prospect to add to what seems like an evergrowing list of midfielders coming through.

    He would probably improve that Chelsea midfield to be honest. Presuming Sheffield Utd go down, I bet there will be a few trying to sign him during the Summer.

    Arblaster is now captaining Sheffield United. What a season he has had. Loaned to League 1 to now the captain at Old Trafford in the PL.

    Didn't see the game last night but Arblaster put in some big defensive numbers with 7 tackles and 5 interceptions.

    I don’t think they would any non U17’s youth matches this summer.

    Been on the bench a total of 20 times for Arsenal but still yet to debut. A number of those games were either dead rubber or saw Arsenal winning easily.

    Can't blame anyone else other than themselves (Arteta, mainly) for losing him.

    It is really weird with Arteta because he does a lot of stuff very well and then creates his own issues with things like this.

    You potentially risk losing an elite talent down the line because they will look at the senior team and see or assume options are not getting what they deserve. Cedric and Elneny getting game time this season over youth options is ridiculous. You need to show there is a pathway for the youth players.

    Abu Kamara is a great inclusion. He's looked really good the few times I've watched Portsmouth this season. Striker/winger profile with a nice skill set.

    To be fair there lots of players missing from the last squad, it's pretty experimental. No Alabaster or Iroegbunam either for example

    A lot of players are going to duck these u18s & u20s meetups. At the end of a long season plenty would rather rest up than go and play in these very low prestige games, not worth risking any niggle.

    Yes, it's nothing to do with form, most of the current squad hasn't played much at senior level.

    I think it’s more of a case of the FA using it as an exercise to bring options into the set up. Or give extra time to options that have been on the fringes. Doubt they would have bothered making squads to fill them with regulars at this point in the calendar.
