Midfield Genius Mark 2

Top teams always live in fear of losing their best players to injury or suspension and a few weeks ago if you’d told Arsenal fans that their teenage creative genius Cesc Fabregas would be unavailable, they would have been horrified.

Not any more, though, because as you might expect Arsene Wenger has unleashed another teenage creative genius. This one is Brazilian, his name is Denilson and anyone who saw him in the 3-1 F.A. Cup triumph over Bolton Wanderers at the Reebok Stadium will have no fears whatsoever if he is asked to deputise for Fabregas, because even at his tender age there is very little this boy cannot do. And the good news is, he’s going to get even better.
