Remember him holding ball up with back to goal turning his man and skipping through about 7 tackles before being brought down. This guy has serious potential to be a big star for us.

Don't forget Matt Connolly who is highly rated centre back just gone out on loan to Colchester.
I'm a huge fan of Matt as well...I know this is said about any defender over 6 foot tall among Gooners but he really does remind me of Tony Adams. Lets hope he can have an exellent season at Colchester and then come back and repalace Gallas next season!

Agreed, even if he shuts up in the media for a while, a whispered word into the ear of another player is enough to cause disruption.

Fix him or send him packing.

I think Lansbury is the person to watch the boy has looked good in the youth/reserve games ive seen him in. I think in a few years he will be the new Bobby.

Arsenal starlet to join Osasuna

Arsenal youngster Carlos Vela has agreed to join Osasuna on loan next season.

The Mexican teenager is yet to play for The Gunners as the Under 20 international does not quality for a work permit.

He has already been out on loan at Celta Vigo and Salamanca, and was wanted this summer by Levante and Almeria.

But Vela's agent Eduardo Hernandez has revealed the forward has agreed to join Osasuna for a year, with the option of a second season.

"It is a fact, the player goes away to Osasuna," Hernandez told Marca.

"The negotiation has been closed for a loan for a year and with the possibility that it is extended to two, but an option to buy has not been contemplated.

"For Arsenal, it interests them that he plays regularly and he will do that in Osasuna.

"Vela is very happy, it is incredible what he has done. At 17 years, he played in the second division and at 18 in the first with Osasuna."
