Arsenal were notorious under legendary manager Arsene Wenger for hoovering up the best talent across the globe with a view to giving them first team minutes at an early age. That didn't stop the Gunners from missing out on one individual who is now shining at Real Madrid, though there was nothing they could do.
Cesc Fabregas, Aaron Ramsey and Gabriel Martinelli all joined Arsenal as young players just about to make the step into senior football, with all three developing into fantastic talents under the tutelage of Wenger and in Martinelli's case, Mikel Arteta.
