Arsenal’s Top 3 Youth Prospects

Hector Bellerin

Hector Bellerin is currently on loan at Watford, which is a testament to the progress he has made as an Arsenal youngster. His abilities are of the prototypical Arsene Wenger wing-back; consisting of deep-runs into the opposition box, technical ability, attractive passing, speed, and a bigger focus on offense than defense, that is the Arsenal way.

A Spanish native, and a former Barcelona youth product, Bellerin possesses the technical passing ability so revered by both Barcelona and Arsenal.

Although he won’t be knocking new Arsenal signing Mathieu Debuchy out of the Right-Back position just yet, you can be sure Arsene Wenger will be keeping him close for the future.

As for weaknesses, Bellerin is suspect to getting caught too far afield in the attacking half, leaving opportunities for opposition counter-attacks to exploit. He will need to work on this element of his game in order to successfully take over the starting position in the Arsenal squad in the future.
