Arsenal under-21s were excellent against Northampton Town on Tuesday night as Mehmet Ali's side came back from a goal behind to win 3-1. The victory means that the Gunners go joint-top of their Papa Johns trophy group.
Lino Souza was particularly impressive for the young Gunners down the left-hand side. He wasn't afraid to receive the ball and was a constant threat when in attack, as well as a defensive presence for the Gunners.
He showed that he was ready for first-team football on a physical and technical level. With Mikel Arteta's options packed at left-back currently, a loan move could be the ideal option, as Souza has shown that he could be ready.
