England U21 captain and a very impressive goal record at youth level. If he gets a few more goals in the league this season I think we'll get a decent fee for him.

You send them out on loan, probably to a championship team and go from there.
I think with Saka you saw straight away he was ready for the first team, he firstly showed the technical ability, but more importantly had the character to impose his style on the team. I dont think Nelson/Willock/Smith Rowe for example have that at the minute. They all need a loan to the championship where the onus is on them to win their team games, it will help a lot with their development imo.

It's a shame his loan to Fortuna Dusseldorf didn't materialse last season. I reckon he would've been a starter and played most of the season rather then being backup to Bamford for 5 months. I reckon a team like Bielefeld or Freiburg from January onwards would be a good fit
this is becoming a recurring theme for Arsenal players, sad

i shudder to think what would have happened had we been playing the last few months in front of "fans"

What have I missed? What's it all about?
He didn't score a hat-trick in his last game, so that's reason for people to send him abuse.
I like that the club is at least pushing back on this. It won't make it go away, but at least there's a firm stance of "this ain't it chief".

The Internet was a terrible mistake.

Why's it always the academy players who get the most abuse from this fanbase, it was the same case when Iwobi was here? AMN has got some ridiculous abuse in the past. I don't even know what he's done to warrant this abuse, since he's come back from Leeds he's done reasonable well all things considered.

Some of the criticism this kid gets is way over the line in general.
Not every youngster is a Saka type that bursts onto the scene immediately. In fact he's an anomaly. I'm not comparing them as talents but Kane was a nothing player till he was 21. Young players progress at different rates.
Eddie's done very well so far all things considered. He's cemented himself in the first team squad, scored a few goals and may very well push Laca out of the side permanently in the not too distant future. He's England's all time under 21's scorer too don't forget.
People hype Balogun for a 10 minute cameo. I agree he's a talent, but Eddie shouldn't be slept on either just because he's not the fresh new toy everyone wants to play with.

how fast we forget how sensational Eddie's debut was.

I understand why he's being picked and didn't mean it as a rhetorical question. I don't remember another time a young talent rated this highly had no parts of his game that stood out to me but people have been hyping him up for a few years now so I'm wondering whether they're seeing something I'm not or if they're just looking at his youth stats
say yes

It’s a recurring theme for any celebrity on social media tbh. Nothing to do with Arsenal (though sports fans in general are the worst).
Too many ****s in the world.

Those same people used to hype Akpom.
Country: Iceland
I sometimes read the comments under Kylie Jenner when she is advertising her new cosmetics and everyone is so mean to her and I'm just one man army replying to everyone "no guys, leave her alone, please guys!".
Akpom was more talented though. Nketiah doesn't have any stand out attributes. Nothing wrong with saying he simply isn't good enough for this level, and that is Arsenal as a team that finished 8th. People used to **** on Iwobi more than they have for any current youth and Iwobi was playing for an Arsenal team in the champions league and still finishing top 4.
