Five youngsters Wenger could start for Arsenal against Sheffield Wednesday

Arsenal are in a good place at the moment. Joint-top of the Premier League and still on a high from a much-needed win over Bayern Munich in the Champions League, there is much to be positive about.

Next up for the Gunners is a Capital One Cup clash against Championship side Sheffield Wednesday, who are also in great recent form, though Arsene Wenger might identify this as a useful opportunity to field some of his talented youngsters.

With that in mind, we take a look at who exactly is rolling off the Emirates production line and which five youth stars Wenger could present with a chance to make the step up against the club’s South Yorkshire opponents, in a competition, where he has traditionally blooded youth.

Another who burst onto the scene in Arsenal’s annual summer tournament, the club hold high hopes for the 17-year-old. Having joined from RC Lens in the transfer window, it shouldn’t be too long before the goalscoring midfielder makes the same step up into the senior team that recently successful youth product Hector Bellerin has. Definitely could feature against the Owls and is 10/3 to score anytime.
