Boy done good today. He's looked good in every game I've seen him in this season, even the defeat in Dortmund where the whole team were poor, Bellerin was a shining light that night. Since then when he's come in he's done really well and looks strong, quick and inventive. That RB berth is looking quite competitive now with Debuchy, Chambers and Bellerin all more than capable of claiming it as their own.
Don't forget the Corporal as well! I like the look of Bellerin, and his attacking play is very good, I still think he needs to improve his defensive side for when we get a sterner examination, but his progress is awesome!
Told you ****s ages that this kid was the real deal. . Only problem is can we keep him out of the clutches of Barca? Alves is getting on, so they are going to be looking for a RB soon.
Would you play Jenkinson ahead of Debuchy, Chambers or Bellerin at the moment ? I love Jenks, but he's got a big step up to make if he's going to claim the RB starting berth.
He's been fantastic for West Ham. I wouldn't play him over Debuchy but he's in the mix with Chambers and Bellerin
Jenks is a great lad and has the right attitude to succeed, but in terms of pure talent, Bellerin is miles ahead. He is so quick and his final ball is always quality. Needs to work on that defensive side of his game, but his pace allows him to get away with mistakes. Like all Barca products, the kid is pure quality on the ball.
Still see our future RBs as Jenks and Bellerin. Chambers will either be shifted to CB or adapted to DM in the future. Both good young options to have
Doubt it. Both will want to be first team players and after having a taste of it this season, doubt Jenks is going to settle for a place on the bench next season, especially the case with Debuchy still having another few years at the top level.
Wenger has said that he eventually sees Chambers as a DM (but I hope to God that doesn't prevent him from buying one or a CB if he switches him to CB) so you might be right about Jenks and Bellerin (after Debuchy) as our future RBs
+1 I feel exactly the same, and if Debuchy is out for a while (like this season) or suspended/in need of a rest, then I reckon Jenks could def make a strong case for being a starter, with Chambers CB. It's a good situation to be in.
Have to trust Wenger when it comes to fullbacks. Bellerin looks very good. He's a quick little bastard.
Bellerin and toral are both players I've taken an interest in since we signed them from barca and it's great to see one of them starting to get opportunities in the first team and looking good. He is so fast, he gets up and down the pitch all game and at great speed. He has quick feet and can go round his man and put in a decent ball. He also doesn't look lost when he has to come in field like lots of full backs do. He has done very well for his age and I look forward to seeing more of him.
Apparently he's clocked a quicker sprint than Theo. I know there's more to fussball than pace but...damn.
Has been picked for the Spainish senior squad, and for a 20 year old, that is some achievement when you consider the amount of very good players Spain have. This kid is unreal.
