The best players under 21 in the English top tier.
Age is the one thing that footballers can’t stop catching up on them and there is always a fresh young face ready to take their place.
Here are the top 10 best under-21s in the Premier League.
10. Luke Shaw, Southampton – 18
The defender is now the established first choice left-back at St Mary’s and with impressive performances this term, several teams are on the teenager’s tail.
9. Ross Barkley, Everton – 19
By breaking into the Toffees first team on a regular basis and also earning a call up to the senior England squad this has been a great season for the midfielder so far.
8. Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Arsenal – 20
As a regular face in both the Gunners and Three Lions first team it’s easy to forget that this former Southampton man is still so young.
7. Adnan Januzaj, Manchester United – 18
Not many had heard of the young winger before the 2013/14 term started, but after impressive displays in the first team the teenager is now earning a great reputation with United.
6. Mateja Nastasic, Manchester City – 20
With seemingly endless transfer funds it’s great credit to the young Serb that the defender has kept a consistent place in the Citizens starting XI.
5. Phil Jones, Manchester United – 21
The defender is still being tipped as a future leader for both club and country and Jones generally impresses when taking to the field for either.
4. Christian Eriksen, Tottenham Hotspur – 21
It’s been a steady start for the Denmark international since making the £11m transfer from Ajax to north London in the summer and could be a real talent for the future.
3. Jack Wilshere, Arsenal – 21
The midfielder is recognised as one of Arsene Wenger’s key players and it’s also easy to forget the Englishman is still so young.
2. Romelu Lukaku, Everton – 20
The on-loan Chelsea man is once again impressing with some fine goal-scoring form for the Merseyside club.
1. Philippe Coutinho, Liverpool – 21
Just top of the pile is this Brazilian starlet who is impressing for the Reds once again this term and is forming a great relationship with striker Luis Suarez.
