PL: Southampton vs Arsenal | Tuesday 26th January | KO:20:15 | BT Sport (Maybe)

England are staring to produce some serious players tbf. Foden, Sancho, Saka and Greenwood is an unreal set of U21 players.

Yeah but I Portugal and France been doing it for a while, I can see why they were finalists in last Euros still got more coming through. Feel like Spain, Germany and Italy fell off though.

Memberships to Pepe hive is closed.

@Lady_Gooner used to be Miss Elizabeth but she revoked her membership now she’s in the mud too.

Side effect of the vaccine. I’m back

Ffs if we beat Palace at home we’d be right in the mix.

Beating Burnley and Palace would've been good enough to be 4th

 

[berric]

Boggles my mind Saka is only 19. Unbelievable really.

 

[junglist57]

Man City FPL asset owners, where are you?

:bounce:

 

[GoonerJay24]

English coaches don't try to improve players skills just get the best ones physically and get them to run all game. It's why so many young English players have injury problems.

Yh I did a university dissertation on this and that's exactly what happens at most of these English academies.

 

[Riou]

Laca rebounded from that horrible miss brilliantly, tbf.

Worked the defenders nonstop, in the rain which makes a difference (per my boy Ty) and capped the half with a lovely assist.

 

[Mrs Bergkamp]

Dennis wasn't fast but what he lacked in speed, he made up for with raw strength & a combative style of play.

I loved the fact that, most of the time, opposition defenders would come off second best in their battles with him on the ball.

He looked so fragile too especially with those baggy bottom shorts

We win the league if we won our home games.

[DUFFMAN]

Why does ESR need a rest but Saka doesn't?

I'm still thinking ESR is been overhyped.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

With Saka he look so dangerous everytime he has the ball knows how to score goals the boy is entering elite level

 

[MikeVinna]

Think he's already better than Wilshere ever was

Could very well be. Doesn’t mean Jack wasn’t special though.. Gonna look up his goal later.

Definitely. They also seem to produce top draw CBs as well which is something England haven't done in a while. That being said though England's forward options are insane. I think those 3 teams will be the ones to beat in the next few international tournaments.

When I look at those little Spainish players that dominated international football from 2008-2012 I wondered how many of them would have made it in English academies. Xavi would never got the chance.

This is a debate I do not wish to engage in .

Dennis could turn on the pace if he needed it. Remember the goal away at Birmingham? Henry put him through and he outran the covering defenders and chipped the keeper.

Saka not injury prone ESR suffered too much with injuries overplaying him not good for long term

Yeah not detracting from what Jack was but Saka is out of this world
