Scored for England U19s

Edit. He has 2 now. Nelson and Willock are also playing (well, I might add, Nelson is waltzing past everyone)

Edit: hat trick.

It just hit me that South London is a literal breeding ground for young footballers.

Joe Gomez
Ryan Sessegnon
Nathaniel Chalobah
Ruben Loftus-Cheek
Jadon Sancho
Patrick Roberts
Reiss Nelson
Ademola Lookman
Jordon Ibe
Tammy Abraham
Eddie Nketiah

That's just 'up and coming' players, haven't even added current players or retired ones. In that case you'd have to throw in Wright, Ferdinand, Rocastle, Zaha, Moses, Smalling, Antonio, Bertrand.

Thing is though, if you convert west and east London into North London then North London dwarfs that

South London seems to have a lot more diversity (especially those of African/Caribbean descent) than the rest of London. Sport is huge and talented footballers are treated with a lot more respect than you'd think (I know examples of guys who have been exempt from gang wars because they're talented) more so in these parts where for some of these kids it's the only way to make it out of the cycle of crime, gangs and prison (blame the system etc).

Or maybe I'm chatting sh*t and it's just the water.

His stock might be quite high right now... £25m? I'd take it.

More chance of it being the water than your Pembury Estate crack den inspired theory tbh

You might know the life, hell you might have even lived the life. But you haven't lived the life. Belee that.

Arsenal Quotes

When I am asked why I stayed at Arsenal so long.. my answer is simple; I never wanted to be anywhere else. I could have earned a lot more elsewhere, but that wouldn't compensate for all the good years at Highbury.
