Wenger Hails “Unbelievable” £10m Starlet

Arsene Wenger has hailed Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain’s performance in their Carling Cup victory over Shrewsbury on Tuesday.

The £10million summer signing marked his first senior debut with a fine strike and Wenger was quick to praise the 18-year old.

“He grew through the game and became stronger and stronger,” Wenger said.

“What came out was unbelievable – you didn’t expect it after the first half.

“You could see that he will be a first-team player here, that is for sure. He has still things to work on but, very quickly, he will be knocking on the door.”

Arsenal had to come from behind to beat the League Two outfit 3-1, you can watch extended highlights included Chamberlain’s goal here.
