Premier League 2

So a hat trick for JJ Gabriel today on his UEFA Youth League debut.

He scored and made an assist on his Premier League 2, so his under-21 debut.

He's definitely outgrown the 18s, although at 15 that would be his natural place.

He is on the extended squad list for the Premier League, so he didn't have to be registered.

So if you're looking to Chelsea alone players, you know the standard of an 18, 19-year-old is probably better than what you get up here.

but no they are playing at a better level of course but again I've watched a lot of Premier League 2 games as well especially when I was at Sunderland and it's no real football either so it's very very difficult to judge but if you're taking a chance on two 18 year olds from Chelsea the chances are they're going to the chances are they'll probably be half decent players because they're in that system and I think Muka just signed a new deal didn't he before he came to Celtic as well so they obviously do have high hopes for him whether or not that's going to be at Chelsea or they're going to filter him out of loan clubs and then eventually he might get a move somewhere that's kind of Chelsea's model Terry I'm just going to say

I'm a strong believer I mean rather than bringing guys up like 18 17 18 19 20 I mean we're obviously developing players do you know what I mean

I'm

He was there for 11 years.

Then he went to Liverpool for a year where he played most of the season in Premier League 2, which I guess is like the reserve league.

But, you know, you imagine that's quite a good standard.

And then he's since then had spells in Scotland where he played in the Scottish Prem.

Have you watched it? Did you see this? No, I did not.

John McGinn said, have you seen that Premier League two? It's not even football.

Half of them don't even tie their laces when they play.

Wow.

One more thing on this.

At League One level, far more likely than you're going to see in PL2 or whatever level he's played at, Scottish Premiership.

May as well be PL2.

No, I'm kidding.

Scottish Premiership.

Tommy made his FA Cup debut in February this year as a substitute in our 4-0 win over Wigan Athletic.

As well as his senior appearances for Arsenal, Tommy has also played regularly in the Premier League 2 and UEFA Youth League games.

Thank you, Fabio.

Fabio Vieira has joined Bundesliga side Hamburger SV on a permanent transfer.

Andre rescues under-21s.

Arsenal under-21s 1.

Crystal Palace under-21s 1. our under-21s opened their Premier League 2 campaign with a 1-1 draw against Crystal Palace on Saturday, August 22nd.
