Also WHU U18s have many players already 18.
Yeah, we're a pretty young team. Can't think of many who have significant U18 experience compared to much of this team. We've done well and still have a number of standouts here but this team are really good.

Given the youth of Nwaneri and Lewis Skelly, the average age of our team is easily a year less then theirs.

West Ham so much bigger as a team as well. And right on cue scores from a corner unmarked- about 5 inches taller than anyone for Arsenal

They are a bigger more physical side than us. Lad they have up top looks like he should be playing men’s football, built like a brick ****house.

A shame - we've been really good for much of the game, but errors, West ham being clinical and their greater physical strength (and knowing how to manage the game and play the ref) has been decisive

You don’t get points for having younger team. Arsenal like to have younger player each age group which means for years these kids has lost a lot against older kids. It’s important kids learn how to win to progress

Think they've been a bit more in sync as a team aswell. We have talent but it's been very individual-like at the moment. That's the next step for our best.

No actually it's not that important at this level. Consider how few players we had progress from the team that actually won in 09. Coquelin and Wilshere. Could count Ayling aswell. The development they get from playing against teams bigger and stronger than them is far more critical.
