Arsenal Plot Move for ‘New Jack Wilshere’

Quote
Arsenal have set their sights on talented young Aston Villa midfielder Dan Crowley according to the Sunday Mirror, with Arsene Wenger being linked with a move to make a lucrative offer for the 15 year old starlet.

Crowley has been dubbed the ‘New Jack Wilshere’ and has been capped seven times by the England Under 17 national team and could be picked up by the North London club for a small compensation fee and it may well be a move the young midfielder is all the more likely to consider given that his side has struggled all season and still face a fight to stay in the Premier League.

Aston Villa have a host of young talents peppered in Paul Lambert’s first team set-up and though some may believe Crowley would have a better chance of breaking into the Villa Park side it is also worth noting that Wenger is certainly more than willing to trust to youth.

Arsenal fans will be glad to hear that Jack Wilshere himself is now fit enough to return to training after recovering from another ankle knock.


Can't say I've ever heard of this kid. Glad to hear we have some highly rated kids coming through.

Didn't we bum Arsenal when we took Samir Carruthers off them?

Happens all the time, and in plenty of different directions, at that age.

It's what Arsenal do. 

Generally there's not many players that come directly through their ranks from 10-12+

They just cherry pick the better players from other sides from home and abroad, and offer the family of the player involved incentives (not bribes, not bribes at all).

He'll always be known as "Sweet Boy" to me, Riss.

Pathetic piece of journalism there. He's a few years away from even attempting to become a first-team regular.

Yes agree with you as I find this line particularly pathetic. And anyway Arsenal can f*ck off.

You obviously didn't see him play for England against Brazil, or you'd know better.
