Last year it was Alex Iwobi, the year before it was Hector Bellerin and Francis Coquelin. Every season, it seems, one youngster takes an opportunity in the first-team, usually due to injuries. Could we see big seasons from Chuba Akpom or Serge Gnabry? Maybe it’ll be Yaya Sanogo…
Benik Afobe and Callum Wilson have the potential to fire the Cherries further up the Premier League table if they stay fit. And Jordon Ibe could be an inspired signing on the flank to provide the assists for them.
He’s shown in pre-season he could terrorise Premier League defences with eight goals in five games.
