Wenger: Arsenal youngster Gnabry ready to make impact

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger believes teenager Serge Gnabry has the best chance out of his latest batch of youngsters to make a breakthrough. As Wenger celebrates 17 years in charge of the Gunners, the winger, who is fittingly 17, has been thrust into the spotlight and started his first Premier League game in the 3-1 win over Stoke last weekend. The German under-19 international filled in for Theo Walcott and with the England man missing for a a few more weeks, Gnabry could make his second consecutive league start for the trip to Swansea on Saturday. "He's still a young boy but he shows that he has quality" Arsene Wenger Wenger said: "It's a good opportunity for him, I have not decide whether I'll start him. He's still a young boy but he shows that he has quality. "To play today in the Premier League as a young boy of 17-years-old, it’s very seldom that they have the body to cope with the impact and the duels. "But he’s ready to do that. We have some other boys who have the technical quality to play in the Premier League but are not resistant enough yet to compete physically."
