Arsenal v Manchester United: The wonderkids who will be hoping to make an impression at the Emirates
Arsenal host Manchester United on Friday night at the Emirates in the fourth round of the FA Cup.The historically entertaining fixture, which kicks off at 7.55pm, can be heard live on talkSPORT as we bring you live and exclusive commentary of the clash in north London.8

Solskjaer is working extensively with the next generation of Manchester United wonderkids

While both sides will want to ensure they progress as far as possible in the oldest cup competition in football, the chance to rest players is an enticing prospect for both managers.Unai Emery faces the prospect of being without Hector Bellerin for nine months already, while Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has an extensive injury list of senior players.It is entirely possible then that both managers opt to try to blood in some younger plays for the tie.Against Blackpool in the previous round, Emery gave starts to three recent academy graduates and Solskjaer will be keen to adhere to the unwritten policy of giving youth a chance at Old Trafford.8

Arsenal smashed the Tangerines earlier this month

While the Red Devils boss has promised to give Alexis Sanchez game time against his former club, the experienced Chile international could well be tasked with guiding a few of the next generation a helping hand at his former stomping ground.But just who could get a game on Friday night?Scroll down to see talkSPORT.com’s in-depth guide to six of the starlets who could feature.

Charlie Gilmour (Arsenal)

8

Gilmour is a firm favourite of Under-23’s coach Freddie Ljungberg

Statistics

• Age – 19
• Position – CDM
• Height – 5″7
• Debut – November 2018 vVorskla Poltava
• Nationality – Scottish

After signing for the Gunners at the age of six, Gilmour has slowly but surely made his way through the youth ranks at Arsenal.A holding midfielder who looks up to former Gunner Santi Cazorla, the 19-year-old has massively developed his passing game.Under the guidance of Under-23’s coach Freddie Ljungberg, Gilmour has established himself in the team and has even captained the side.

Angel Gomes (Manchester United)

8

The talented teen in action against Huddersfield this season

Statistics

• Age – 18
• Position – CAM
• Height – 5″3.5
• Debut – May 2017 v Crystal Palace
• Nationality – English

The midfielder became the youngest player to feature for Manchester United in the Premier League era in May 2017, but is yet to kick on.Perhaps stifled by former coach Jose Mourinho, the winner of theJimmy Murphy Youth Team Player of the Year for 2017 has an eye for goal and has captained England at Under-16 and Under-17 level.Academy graduate Danny Webber said of Gomes in 2017:Gomes is still very small, but he sees the game seconds before others. Angel is like Paul Scholes; he can dictate a game with his intelligence.”

Bukayo Saka (Arsenal)

8

Saka in Europa League action for the Gunners

Statistics

• Age – 17
• Position – RW
• Height – 5″10
• Debut – November 2018 v Vorskla Poltava
• Nationality – English

Born and raised in London, Saka is of Nigerian descent and made his name at Arsenal’s Hale End academy before signing professional forms and being promoted to the Under-23’s side.The winger is blessed with pace and skills, but has the ability to play at left-back as well – something which could well stand him in good stead as that is the exact same transition Ashley Cole made.Having made his full debut in Europa League against Qarabag, Emery handed the 17-year-old his Premier League debut against Fulham earlier this month.

Mason Greenwood (Manchester United)

8

Greenwood made the bench for United’s final Champions League group game against Juventus

Statistics

• Age – 17
• Position – ST
• Height – 5″9
• Debut – N/A
• Nationality – English

Tipped as one of the brightest talents in the Red Devils academy, the striker is reportedly close to making his first team bow after impressing with his skills and confidence in training.Initially an attacking midfielder, Greenwood is naturally two-footed and was the top scorer of theUnder-18 Premier League North in 2017/18, while still a schoolboy and being eligible for Under-16 level.Solskjaer has already said of the starlet: “Youve got to remember that hes only 17. Hes knocking on the door to get his first appearance.”

Joe Willock (Arsenal)

8

Willock celebrates scoring against Blackpool

Statistics

• Age – 19
• Position – CM
• Height – 5″10.5
• Debut – September 2017 v Doncaster Rovers
• Nationality – English

Perhaps the most likely starlet to get a game on Friday night, Willock has already made a name for himself with a brace in the competition in the previous round.Arsene Wenger handed the midfielder a shock start in the Premier League clash away to Newcastle United last season and he has continued to progress.Using the advice of his father (who uses analytical and video analysis after all of his games) the 19-year-old has the ability and guidance to make it to the very top.

Tahith Chong (Manchester United)

8

Chong is a Netherlands Under-19 international

Statistics

• Age – 18
• Position – RW
• Height – 6″1
• Debut – January 2019 v Reading
• Nationality – Netherlands

Like Greenwood, Chong has been mentioned by Solskjaer as potentially making his breakthrough into the first team this season.

After suffering a cruciate ligament injury in January 2017, the winger came back in devastating fashion and impressed on the club’s pre-season tour this summer.With the pace and skill to get fans off their seats, the 18-year-old has the ability to make a place on the right-hand side of United’s attack his own.Listen to talkSPORT on Friday night for live commentary ofArsenalv Manchester United, with Sam Matterface, Stuart Pearce and Alan Brazil bringing you all the action and analysis from the Emirates
