We know Their weak point already and we’re going to show them tomorrow’: Sheffield boss Chris Wilder delivers His honest verdict ahead of their EPL clash with Arsenal

Chris Wilder is cautious about burdening young Sheffield United talent Oliver Arblaster with excessive expectations, although he acknowledges that the England U20 international will have a significant role to play for the Blades in the future. The 20-year-old player was brought back from Port Vale in January and is set to be the newest Premier League debutant to emerge from United’s academy by the end of the season.

Wilder is considering when to allow Arblaster to make his debut in the top flight, possibly during Monday evening’s match against Arsenal, following in the footsteps of his academy teammates Will Osula, Andre Brooks, and Sydie Peck. Arblaster is considered one of the most potential players to emerge from the Shirecliffe system in many years, but Wilder is focused on finding the correct balance.

The United chief stated that Ollie will manage the situation if he is chosen to play against Arsenal. He comprehends it and will grasp it. He has a promising and lengthy future ahead, yet I aim to avoid placing excessive pressure on him. He is widely discussed and has participated in many English teams.

He has earned the privilege to be there and must cope with the pressure. It will not perturb him. His career will not be determined by his participation in Monday night’s game. “We have to make that decision for all the young players, but I believe he will have a successful career at Sheffield United,, and I am confident he will succeed.” He will be a significant contributor to our team in the future.

Other clubs outside United also have a promising group of young players, like Liverpool and Leeds United, where Archie Gray, who will be 18 this month, has been impressing with his performances. “I believe the game, from an academy perspective, is currently at its highest quality ever,” Wilder stated. There have been exceptional generations of talented young footballers throughout history, but the current talent pool is particularly impressive due to their enthusiasm for playing the game.

They are not content with merely playing in the under-21s and being mediocre footballers. They are eager to engage in hands-on activities, and I believe they have been actively doing so for the past four or five years. You have observed the performance of the under-21 teams at the international level and the progress of England across all age categories from the perspective of an English individual.

They are developing talented football players and successful teams. That seems to be the logical progression for everyone. However, there is exceptional work and remarkable talent emerging.
