Amato 3,016 Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 The 50 greatest youngsters in world football La Gazzetta dello Sport’s Luca Bianchin and Giulio di Feo bring you the best young players currently making waves in all corners of the footballing world by Gazzetta World Staff, @GazzettaWorld27/01/2016, 17:00 30. Gedion Zelalem | Rangers His early years took him from Germany to the United States before he found his place with Arsenal, with the Gunners sending him out on loan to Rangers to gain experience. The midfielder has already caught the eye with his technique and creativity, but he will continue to develop his game in order to improve in other areas such as his decision-making and his physical attributes.

Blueshoff 11,799 Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 There must be a world wide shortage of talent He can pass short balls with the best but can't go by a player, can't shoot and can't tackle. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlBear. 8,499 Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 These things are always ridiculous. The boy clearly has massive potential though, that can't be ignored on here even if you don't t rate him this season. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Potential aye, i've not seen anything to suggest massive potential though, maybe this league simply doesn't suit him? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Essandoh 21,207 Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 He's had a drop in form. He deserves criticism. That's as far as it goes. The boy has talent and there's a reason he's been put on loan to Rangers to work under Warburton to improve. Only just turned 19 years old last week. But people know he's pish and shite and will never go anywhere. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RD.1872 890 Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 The only reason he's on that list is because he's on Arsenals books. Anyone remember the next Bergkamp - Nacer Barazite? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he's a class act mate, it's all opinions. Considering he is only 18 I see a big future for him. But, as always that is largely reliant on the players commitment and work ethic.

Misteral 2,932 Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 He is a fine footballer in the making. ATM, he has a good eye and awareness but as we know can be a bit sloppy at times. if he develops physically he'll be a bit of a star methinks.

Buy yourself one of these wee clickers that cabin crew use to count passengers then you won't lose count and it will give your fingers a rest. There's a player in there not sure we are getting the best out of him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheMotor 2,208 Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 If Zelalem adds 10kg, learns to tackle and gets a role sitting deep he may turn into a real player. Playing right up the pitch, I just don't think he has the speed of thought or movement to thrive. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's being out-performed on his productivity, in terms of goals and assists, by every other midfielder at the club who is getting any game time. That includes Dean Shiels and Nicky Law, who a number of fans do not rate at all. I don't believe for a second that there aren't at least a hundred young players worldwide who are better than Dean Shiels and Nicky Law. He may have potential (I think he has, others don't) but he is not delivering just now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
