Liverpool U18 & U21

Did Arsenal play their u7s or something?

Morrison will go on to have a career like Wilson, they're pretty much exactly the same type of player.

Arsenal U21s suffered their heaviest defeat in Premier League 2 history as they were thrashed 7-0 away to Liverpool today.

There were some mitigating circumstances, with some players such as Ife Ibrahim and Jack Porter unavailable after featuring for the U18s in the FA Youth Cup last night, but it was still a hugely disappointing defeat.

Arsenal gave starts to schoolboy midfielders Mishel Nduka and Emerson Nwaneri, with the latter becoming the club’s youngest ever stater in Premier League 2 aged 15 years and 152 days, beating the record that was set by his brother Ethan.

There were further debuts in the second half with schoolboy Angleinou Pedro and first year scholar Saurap Sampang featuring
but it was another deeply frustrating occasion for the Arsenal academy.

Remy Mitchell made his first start of the season in goal, while Brayden Clarke was given the captain’s armband following Louie Copley’s departure on loan.

Seb Ferdinand, who usually plays as a winger, started in midfield with Charles Sagoe Jr up front.

Francis Hernández, the new sports director of the Honduras National Teams, is already aware of the case of Keyrol Figueroa, and once the new head coach is appointed, they will schedule a meeting with him in England to try to convince him to play for Honduras. Among his various projects, Hernández will seek out more Hondurans who are playing in other countries and hold dual nationality.

Francis Hernández isn't wasting any time and already has his first "Mission Impossible" in Honduras. The new Sporting Director of the Honduran Football Federation (FFH) has marked his first major objective in red: to travel to England and convince Keyrol Figueroa to forget the Stars and Stripes and wear the Honduran jersey instead.

The strategy is clear and ambitious. Just as he convinced Lamine Yamal to choose Spain over Morocco, Hernández wants to apply the same formula with the son of the great Maynor Figueroa. Several reports confirm that the Spaniard is already aware of the situation and considers bringing back the Liverpool youth striker an absolute priority due to his elite training, something that is scarce in the local league.

According to journalist Julio Cruz, the plan is already underway. Once the new coach is appointed, an in-person meeting with Keyrol will be scheduled in the UK. The Dutch Football Federation (FFH) knows they can't continue to embarrass themselves by losing national talent, and Hernández will try to entice him with a serious sporting project, just as he did with the Barcelona star and with Dean Huijsen (who chose Spain over the Netherlands).

“I did my job by conveying the project to Lamine and his family… we managed to convince him to choose Spain,” Hernández recalled about his past success. Now, Honduran fans dream that this same persuasive power will work with the heir to the Figueroa dynasty, who currently plays for the United States.
