Banfield Praises In Form Freeman

Published on February 16th, 2010

Neil Banfield has heaped praise on in form striker Luke Freeman after he found the net for the Reserves against Chelsea on Monday night. The former Gillingham prospect has been in form this season term for the Under 18′s, but he’s yet to hit top gear for the second-string.

Many hyped up FA Cup record holding Freeman when he made the big money switch from the Gills in 2008, but his transition from Football League to Premier League has been tricky. Luke’s improvements have been steady yet noticeable, and now Banfield believes he is on track for a career with Arsenal.

“Luke is progressing nicely. He’s got the enthusiasm, a good attitude and he’s giving himself the best chance. He’s done well tonight but we don’t like to get too carried away with one performance.”

“I think Luke was well aware [when he arrived at Arsenal] that he was one for the future and has to work on his game. He has applied himself really well.”

The England Under 17 international is expected to feature strongly in pre-season next term.

    J, I just read the Wellington Silva profile and it says Arsenal paid 3.4 million for 65% percent of ownership but I believe it was actually….Arsenal agreed to a 3.5 million pound deal with 65% percent of the fee paid upfront and the rest paid when he is able to join the club. I could be wrong tho.

    Neymar is the same size as Robinho and doesnt have the foot skills of Robinho. Good player but is better suited for Spain.
