Young Guns celebrates a special anniversary today, as it’s one year, one month and one day since the website’s very first article, and i would like to take this opportunity to thank everybody for their continued support.
We’ve been dedicated to providing you with the latest news, views and updates surrounding Arsenal’s Reserves & Youth for over a year now. Indeed, we’ve been so committed, we actually missed the official date of our anniversary.
See below for some stats:

We’d just like to take this opportunity to thank everybody for their support, encouragement and opinions. Young Guns has come a very long way since our first article – which was an exclusive update on Nacer Barazite’s fitness – and that’s mostly because of our desire to bring our loyal readers the very best product possible.
A big thank you must also be sent to Alex Zimmermann over at Carlos Vela News, as his graphics have helped the site develop a professional look and feel. Also a shout out to all my fellow bloggers who helped me settle in, and now I’ve subsequently returned the favour with.
On a personal note, I hope you have enjoyed the past 13 months, and you’ll stay locked for more updates. Here’s to another year, and beyond!
Kind Regards
The Young Guns Team.

well, I’d just like to say thank you.
Great job whit the site!
Congratulations J, the website has cme so far in the past year and has really improved.
Keep up the good work
Well done. We’ll be here to congratulate you in a years time. Keep the good work up
Congratulations! It’s my pleasure to be one of those 92!
yeah, thx for the site, its the arsenal site i visit most, which is quite incredible really, considering its for the youth. testament to how good this site is – cheers!
Happy Nelson Day mate.
I’m an old fart with a very low boredom threshold so there’s very very few Arsenal sites that I bother to look at. This is one of them so in my book you’re doing a damn good job here matey.
Totally off track – Frimpong. You know more about them than many but I saw him at Sunderland where he was very very good, apparently he was MotM in the previous round, and since then he’s replaced Coquelin in the Euro squad and got a new contract. What sort of level do you reckon he’s at?
Well done, a very good website……….most of the time.
Thanks very much guys.
With regards to Frimpong – I think he can do big things, but he’s very raw and must learn a lot. But I think in the future he can be a big player for the club, but has much to learn.
Happy sort of birthday and Congratulations J. An excellent site.
Thanx N congrats on a very very successful year J, keep on keeping on!!! We’ll be here to support you till the end :-)
So would a fair call be maybe one of the unused subs a few times this term, League Cup team level next year and shoot for the first team squad the next season?
I was seriously impressed with him at Sunderland though. Coquelin was scurrying around to great effect but Frimpong just seemed to stand in the middle and draw everything toward him. If we went forward the ball often went through him and if they went forward the ball often stopped near him – I remember one of their fans described our central midfield as an oak tree and a terrier which seemed kind of apt. Afobe was great when he came on as well – scared the hell out of them.
WOOOOHOOOOOO IM ONE OF THE 92 SUBSCRIBED.;)
I have to say JS that this is my main source for quirky facts about the young talent coming through that I can use to impress my fellow arsenal friends. Love your work and long live youngguns.
I’d also add that I’m absolutely delighted that your best day happened to be my 18th birthday! 23/06/08 was a good day all round then!
Same here.
I’m proud to say I’ve been here since the first day.
The work you consistently produce is quite magnificent – especially with the quality that comes out of it.
Long may Young Guns continue!
Happy Birthday JBM. :)
