Arsenal's recent success has come down to many things, with one of those being their implementation of younger players in the squad. While some of that has come from talent scouted and signed for the future, it also comes down to the famous Hale End academy.
The likes of Bukayo Saka, Emile Smith Rowe and Eddie Nketiah have graduated from the youth setup, showing there is a pathway to the first team. While that generation is spreading its metaphorical wings in the Premier League, the next set of youngsters watch on in wait for their chance to emulate that success.
"It’s part of our identity, to raise players," Manager Mikel Arteta said on the Hale End academy last year. "We have a great academy, we have coaches that deserve so much credit for the education that they are giving those players, and for how they have been coached."
