Wenger delighted with his young guns

ARSENAL manager Arsene Wenger believes the emergence of the club’s young Gunners may threaten Chelsea’s current stranglehold next season.

Wenger has not been afraid to trust his instincts and play the likes of Cesc Fabregas, Philippe Senderos and Robin van Persie.

Aged just 17, 20 and 21 respectively, with Fabregas turning 18 today, the burgeoning trio are commanding places in the team ahead of the more experienced Edu, Sol Campbell and Dennis Bergkamp all on the bench for Monday night's 2-0 victory at West Brom.
