18 year old Arsenal attacker Gedion Zelalem and 16 year old Tottenham defender Cameron Carter-Vickers.
Zelalem has played for the 1st team in FA Cup and UCL matches. Carter-Vickers plays for Spurs junior teams, but word is he will get a look for the 1st team next season.
Granted, this list means nothing, but good recognition all the same.

Would be pretty sweet if they wind up playing against each other in the North London derby someday. Or for that matter, Zelalem vs. Yedlin.

Carter-Vickers has featured in the U-21 matches. I know in one match he was assigned to mark Radamel Falcao and he marked him out of the game. He's a serious prospect. We have three really solid young centerbacks in the U-20s. CCV, Matt Miazga who has been starting for the Red Bulls and Erik Palmer-Brown (SKC), who just turned 18, supposedly Juventus has been trying to buy him for about a year now, but I think that would be a dumb move for him.

CCV is a solid looking 17 year old (just turned 17). He's 6'1".

Hope he comes good. It's a shame he has to play for Spurs. :cool:

Hopefully, I'll be able to celebrate St. Totteringham's Day, later today. :D (Hopefully)

FWIW, it was mentioned in a couple of places. But Jurgen Klopp recently told Jurgen Klinsmann that Christian Pulisic has "best player in the world" type potential.

Imagine a USMNT midfield in a 4-3-3 with Hyndman, Pulisic and Zelalem. That would be pretty sweet if those players pan out.

Pulisic highlights at the 4:30 mark.
