I really hope this is his breakthrough year. With our midfield options being a bit poor he should be in and around the first team squad.
Sorry for the late bump, but had to share this. I have my heart set on his breakthrough this year, even with someone like Ceballos coming in and Guendouzi somehow stepping up his game tremendously, Torreira somehow coping with the physicality... even in this unlikely case we're still one classy midfielder away from being ready for CL football.
Willock brings in everything you want, if he hits the gym considered he's pretty lanky I reckon he's gonna make it this year.
Other than that I was very pleased with Martinelli, his work ethic and the fact he's been given such a low shirt number, miiiight be an indicator we do plan to play him for the first time right away (as we should)
Also Saka looked so strong for a player his age physicality wise.
Whoever said our youngster's aren't technical or whatever enough, this is by far the best crop of young players we've had in age.
Would be so nice to have a decent core of English players that are amongst the one featuring for England in the big tournaments, even for someone who doesn't cheer for England.
