We're always in trouble, nothing new there.

He's 16, therefore not eligable for a professional contract yet. I'm pretty sure it's up him who he meets up with and talks to... Maybe not the smartest or most loyal, but I doubt it's 'illegal' as such. Unlike someone who is contracted to another club i.e. A. Cole.

arsenal have created an entire outh set up by doing this. fabregas, flamini and a couple of lads playing on loan in spain were secured like this. so nothing illegal, though not sure about the moral issues.

No no, its different, what arsenal do is called incredible forsight and marks wenger out as a geinuis!

Well this sounds familiar. A youth player who we snatch from United. Wonder if United will come out and claim that we owe them money for him!

realistically though, it will be interesting to see if he will even make the first team, as we don't seem to be developing much into the first team from our youth ranks lately
