Spare me. Let's see this lot week-in, week out against EPL & CL opposition if their that damn good.

Would love to see this midfield against our powerhouse midfield of Mikel, Essien, Ballack & Lampard.

They're very very good youngsters, and 2-3 of them will probably become 1st team regular starters in the next couple of years, but right now they're no world beaters.

I agree. They would be dominated by the best midfield in the world.

One touch, ball still moving away from goal, running at speed under pressure from defender and running sideways.

Such a difficult technique.

I appreciate it. Djourou, Ramsey & Vela impress me. Wilshere & Song are good too. The rest strike me as players who'd be $h!t without Wengerball.

Amaury Bischoff is coming on. Must be World Class. £5mil worth already!

Ray Parlour: "Their so good, that their now being rested for the next round, lolz." Mad

I dont have the joys of Ray Parlour.

I imagine youre probably right there but at the same time, it wouldnt suprise me if randall (and possibly simpson) had a career like Sidwell.

Of course they are. Every CC game is a cup final for them.

These kids have more bottle than Henry, I give them that.

Im going to be incredibly, annoyingly, fair now and say:

Parlour is a tool, but no matter how much spunk he dribbles over these kids, it shouldn't deflect from the fact that they are pretty $h!t hot.

This is Wigan after all- not some 2nd or 3rd division outfit.

Still, we did beat these little harlem globetrotting fuckers 5-1 last season....(cant be that nice about them)

What a result that would be If the youngster hold on to that scoreline.

When talking about Ramsey's qualities, the focus of the discussion should be, what can't the boy do? really, what does he lack?

Wilshere is just unbelievable for his age.

Kirkland has been class.

Where are Quincy & Lupoli now

He is on loan at Birmingham City and has fucked up with the Black Stars. Left his club in plenty of time, but reported late and has been disciplined by Ghana's new coach. Was dropped from recent squad over it.

Why is it such a shock - Arsenal kids have been spanking lower mid-table/Championship outfits for years!

I know this Wink

You'd have though he was going to be Abide Pele's heir from the hype he received 4-5 years ago. We've been here with Arsenal's kids before.

Only caught the end of the game. Beautiful chip from Vela, and fantastic save from Fabianski to tip the ball onto the crossbar. Obviously the Carling Cup is a completely different situation to playing regularly in the league, but some of the squad players were impressive again. The likes of Vela deserve more of a chance in the first team from what I've seen.

We're through !!!

Vela's finish was awesome but the idea of him being world class right now is laughable beyond belief.

Also none of these Arsenal kids look 6ft yet they'll be the team of the future Rolling Eyes

Wigan with a very realistic chance of relegation.

Zaki can't even score with an open goal now the temperatures have dropped - they should put him on his camel and send him back.
