在arsenal-land上看到一个枪迷叫"FR"的关於镜报这报导的回文，挺有趣的，他好像也知 道一些事情 虽然有些事版上转贴的新闻也提到过 http://tinyurl.com/ynvqlj Good article, it neatly ties up the current crop of young-but-matured talent in the first team, and the teenagers now breathing down their necks for a starting place. What the article can of course only allude to is the relentless search which is even now going on. The Academy is, if anything, ramping up it's operation. Blatter wasn't wrong when he said that Arsenal hoovers up young talent. The club is usually watching at just about every major international youth tournament in the world, and many of the national ones. (FR：这篇是好报导，这文章交代了几个年轻且渐趋成熟的一队年轻球员，还那些等着要 与这群一队球员竞争的青少年的故事。当然这篇报导只能说球会一直在努力寻找有才华 的年轻人，而枪手青训部门也正在做这方面的工作。FIFA主席布莱特关於枪手一直在觊 觎其他国家的年轻球员这说法是没错，兵工厂一直都监看着各大洲主要国际青少年比赛 ，甚至到成年国家队这层级。) Contrary to the impression left by press comments about Fabregas and Merida-Perez being 'snatched' from Barcelona... not every player is kidnapped and smuggled across borders under a blanket. Plenty of clubs are perfectly happy to let Arsenal look at their young charges. Some clubs actually prefer to know that Arsenal are watching a player, so that they can help in giving the club's scouts every opportunity to assess a youngster. After all, for a club living more hand-to-mouth than Arsenal, the sale of a youth team player for a decent fee now can pay for an experienced player to go straight into the first team. (但不是所有的例子都像媒体所描写法布与梅里达的案例那样夸张，枪手是用绑架与走私 的手法把这些小球员给抢走。很多球会都乐意让兵工厂评估他们自己青少年球员的能力 潜力，甚至有的球会一旦知道枪手有在观察他们该队的小球员，还会主动帮忙枪手的球 探到当地去评估该球员。毕竟，对於一些财务并不宽裕的球会，如果能把小球员卖到兵 工厂换取一笔可观的资金，再拿这笔资金去签成年有经验的即时战力，何尝不是好打算？) For example, Gilles Sunu was signed after Chateauroux sent their youngsters over to play a friendly against Arsenal so that le Boss and his coaches could have a proper look at him. Ivory Coast's u-17s and u-19s (including Eboue) played closed door friendlies against Arsenal at the training centre in 2001. Arsenal have a strong relationship with Northampton Town FC, who have over the years put several young players Arsenal's way, including Mark Randall. Those are a few historic examples, but it's going on more than ever now. (例如，Chateauroux在送该队几个有希望的小球员们到枪手青训举行不公开的友谊赛後， 在温格与几个教练的审视评估後，该队的Sunu便被签下。2001年时，象牙海岸U17与U19 (当时Eboue在阵容里)都到过枪手训练中心举行过非公开的友谊赛。枪手与北安普顿有 深厚的关系，在过去数年当中已经把几个青少年放在枪手青训系统训练，像是 Mark Randall。还有其他几个过去的例子，但是现在这类的活动更加频繁) Plenty of players also train with Arsenal for a few weeks as a trial, with the full agreement of their clubs. Arsenal look at many players, but sign very few. Lots goes on at the training ground - it's where Arsenal go when they want to be alone. (许多小球员们都曾在枪手试脚数周，这些都是先经过该球员母会的同意，但是枪手只签 下其中极少数，其实训练场上有很多这方面的事，只是球会不愿意多做声张) 接下来这段有点在卖关子... There are plans afoot for a closed doors friendly in the near future. If the opposition is as rumoured, the prospects are potentially mind-blowing. Neil Banfield nearly blurted it out the other day apparently. If the club reports it, fine I'll say more, but until then... rest assured that the Academy are not sitting back admiring their handiwork. (近期内还会有其他的非公开的友谊赛计画，如果对手真的是如谣言所说的，那这些赛事 日後对枪手的影响将会很大。预备队教练Banfield日前曾经差点说溜嘴。如果球会提及 这件事，我会在这论坛上说更多，但是在那之前就不便多说。我只能说青训部门不是只 关着门，看着自家的小孩子们踢球训练。) --
