http://www.arsenal.com/article.asp?thisNav=news&article=391511 Reserves Week: The 05/06 season in stats By Mo Khan These days, the words ‘Arsenal Football Club’ and ‘entertainment’ go hand in hand, and as the 2005/06 Reserve League South campaign illustrated, it’s a trait extended to their second string. The Gunners were the division’s top scorers - amassing 60 goals at an average of 2.3 goals per game. And having led the table for long periods, they ended their season in third place with 14 wins from 26 fixtures, 12 points adrift of eventual winners, Tottenham. （枪手预备队本季在预备队联赛里虽然最终第三名，但是进球最多总共进六十球， 积分落後榜首的热刺十二分，第二名为南安普顿） However, as their manager Neil Banfield stresses, at this level, "performance is more important than points". In other words, the team’s education will inevitably encounter defeat as well as victory and the players are better off for both experiences. （但是在预备队教练Banfield的理念里，他认为表现比积分还重要，输球难免，但是 年轻球员们要学到东西才行 [长大就不一样了，积分跟表现一样重要]） Some teams opt to use the Reserve League mainly as a stage for their first-team fringe players. Arsenal prefer to blood their academy players — some as young as 15 — and use a core of reserve players who have little or no first-team experience. （跟其他球队的预备队不同，枪手的预备队主要是拿来练青训球员，有的年纪甚至 只有十五岁，且多半枪手预备队球员们只有很少没有甚至是全无打一队比赛的经验） First-team stars returning from injury such as Ashley Cole, Sol Campbell and Robin van Persie are exceptions to that rule. All appeared for Banfield’s outfit last term but made a combined total of seven appearances between them. Indeed, one of those, Cole against Spurs at Underhill, lasted all of seven minutes. Generally though, the spine of Banfield's side consisted of 18-year-old central defender, Matthew Connolly (20 starts), defensive midfielder Fabrice Muamba (20) and striker Nicklas Bendtner (22). Other reserve-team regulars included Kerrea Gilbert (15), Sebastian Larsson (15), Arturo Lupoli (15) and Anthony Stokes (18). （以先发次数来说，预备队的主干球员为这些） Several Arsenal Under-18 stars also made the step up to reserve-team football with distinction last season. Winger Jay Simpson, 17, netted six times from just eight starts. （少数几个枪手U18的球员也曾被拉拔至预备队联赛，例如边翼十七岁的Jay Simpson ，他先发八次就进六球） Right-sided midfielder Giorgos Efrem, 16, showcased his versatility by producing a man-of-the-match performance at left-back against Watford at Underhill. The Cypriot youth international scored twice from seven starts. （右中场的赛浦路斯籍Efrem，这季也在七场先发里有两个进球） Paul Rodgers, 15, was another debutant at this level and excelled at right back, producing a string of energetic displays that defied his tender years. （十五岁的Rodgers，这季在右後卫也有不错的表现） The top goalscorer mantle was predictably a two-horse race between Lupoli and Bendtner and the former looked like claiming the bragging rights having scored 17 times from just 15 games by the end of February. （枪手预备队的进球双王当然是Lupoli与Bendtner，其中Lupoli到二月底止，十五 场进了十七球） But a foot injury ruled the Italian out of the remainder of the campaign and Bendtner edged ahead of his team-mate at the death, with a brace at West Ham — taking his end-of-season tally to 18 goals in 22 starts. （但Lupoli之後不幸受伤，结果Bendtner以二十二场先发进十八球得成绩，成为预备队 的本季头号射手） Reserves' top appearance-makers in 2005/06 Name Reserves appearances Reserves goals Nicklas Bendtner 24 18 Fabrice Muamba 23 1 Anthony Stokes 22 3 Matthew Connolly 21 - Arturo Lupoli 15 17 Reserves' best new-comers* in 2005/06 Name Reserves appearances Reserves goals Jay Simpson 12 6 Giorgos Efrem 9 2 Paul Rodgers 9 - Marc Elston 8 1 Vito Mannone (GK) 7 0 * NB: this refers to players who may have made an appearance in the reserve team in 2004/05, but are still considered academy players. Bendtner已经跳级，被擢拔到丹麦的U21，也参加近日在葡萄牙办的U21欧锦盃。 http://www.uefa.com/competitions/Under21/Players/Player=92996/index.html 不过丹麦已经在小组阶段出局了。 这季看预备队比赛精华，我认为Bendtner比Lupoli更有希望日後能打进一队。 --
