    But will Pulis play him?

    Stoke City have signed young Arsenal academy product Ben Glasgow on his first professional contract.

    The 18-year-old right-back had only been offered a one-year extension of his scholarship by the Gunners.

    And he has consequently elected to relocate to the Britannia Stadium.

    The Essex-born Republic of Ireland Under-19 international was restricted to four Premier Academy League starts last season before a succession of injuries ended his campaign.

    Well, he's from the Arsenal youth set up! I guess he's got some potential. We are short of right backs/full backs. As they say, IF they are good enough, they are old enough to PLAY first team. Arsenal are renowned for finding and improving excellent player's. I guess it's up to Tony Pulis give the lad a chance.

    Not sure on this one. Only played a handful of accademy games and struggled with injury! However, if Arsenal were willing to let him stay on for another year he must have potential?

    The only thing I will say is, I dont like the Irish link that TP likes with alot of his squad, its almost like he views it as a sure fire way to have an international player within the squad!
