Folarin Balogun
It is possible that we bag Tyreece for another season of course, but Mikel Arteta did suggest he was close to a first team chance. even if that doesn’t come, there’s a possibility he could end up being loaned to a club higher than us next season to progress him further. If so, we might be compensated with 18-year-old Folarin Balogun, an England youth international forward with a great scoring record at Under 23 level.
He bagged 25 times in 18 matches for their Under 18 side and has represented England and the United States at that age group, as well as qualifying for Nigeria. He appeared in the 4-2 defeat against Manchester City Under 23s witnessed by Marc Tracy, bagging both goals.
“The clubs sending players out on loan have to be assured their prospects are going to get regular football”.
Assurance are one thing, the reality might be different. Do we know why TJ Eyoma is not playing?
It’s not different with Tyreece, Morrell or Hesketh. I think there is some impetus on the player too.
Because he is only here as cover?
I’m confused who is cover for who! Is Alan Sheehan cover for TJ? Or is TJ cover for Alan Sheehan who is cover for Jason Shackell?
TJ will now be cover for Sheehan. Shacks won’t be appearing again.
Wasn’t Ben Sheaf at Stevenage last season?
Always plenty of talented players in Arsenal youth teams.. It would be nice if clubs will continue good relationship and we can land one of those talents here.
We were bit unlucky this year with TJJ but next time it might work out better for us.
