Who is Gilmour and why is he typed GILMOUR (c) in the video?

Charlie Gilmour. He's been part of our U18 set up for a while now - he had a big injury and came back a while ago. He's a holding player and a very impressive passer of the ball. He captained the side on the day, which is why I assume his name was capitalized and had (c) next to it. He's rated quite highly.

Some troubling news on Chris Willock. Apparently is refusing to sign a new deal - he wants more money otherwise he may leave at the end of the season.

We do not lack for young talents in attacking positions but it would still be a big blow to lose a talent like Chris Willock, especially with his dribbling ability.

This seems to be a running theme with the Willock brothers. All of them stalled their deals for a long time and in Matty's case, he left. I assume Utd were willing to pay more money.

I think not playing would also have an effect. Willock despite his talent isnt as close to the 1st team as he might think he should be.

IMO, he is a very big talent and we should try to keep him. But losing him at this stage is not as big of a loss because we have players his age and younger who are also talented. A potential Willock departure opens up a greater opportunity for Reiss Nelson, who is arguably a greater and more explosive talent.

Zelalem scored for his club where he is at loan in Holland!
Good for him. I like the boy. He is the closest thing to a Carzola or Veretti in my opinion. Incisive forward passes always played promptly. It's like he has eyes behind his head senses when a tackle is coming and dodges it swiftly with a neat turn at the right moment. I hope to see him succeed at Arsenal.

He's 20 and plays at VVV Venlo. I know a lot can happen and he's still young, but Cesc was setting the world alight at that age.

The Eredivisie is bad but this is a league below that.. I honestly can't seem him getting a place with Arsenal if this is the level he's playing now. Might be wrong though, hope I am.

Kid really hasn't been given the fairest of shakes lately. I'm fairly certain he is better than this level. It's purely a mission of minutes.
