Kieran Gibbs
Kieran was the hero for Arsenal during the Youth Cup run last season, scoring in both legs against Man Utd, but he couldnt prevent Arsenal from going out of the Cup.
Starting out at Wimbledon, he was invited for a trial when their academy disbanded and became Milton Keynes Dons. He impressed and Arsenal snapped him up.
Given a start in pre-season in the Emirates Cup match against Inter Milan he was excellent and unlucky not to get on the score sheet against the Italian Champions.
Kieran who prefers to play centrally has been learning his trade as a left midfield for the youth team but showed his versitlity by starting at left back for the first team against Sheffield United in the Carling Cup run, chipping the ball over the back four for Eduardo to score.
A silky winger who loves to drop his shoulder and come inside is one of the more experience players in the Reserves this season.
On September 10, 2007, Gibbs signed a two year professional contract with the Club.
