    Yep, but only plastic fans of big teams claim other teams' academy players they've stolen as their own. It happens all the time.

    I've heard Man City are having a lot of hotels in town built to accommodate the load!

    1. Ox wasn’t an Arsenal youth player
    2. He’s done alright since he moved to Liverpool

    I shouldn’t really have to point out 1 but it’s very Arsenal of you.

    You paid £5m for that ‘youth’ player, his talent was patently obvious. He made his debut for Arsenal’s first team not long after signing ffs.

    1. He was a teenager when he came to Arsenal
    2. He’s been the same at Liverpool as he was at Arsenal - a decent backup option
