Nwaneri became the youngest player in Premier League history but Murphy isn't convinced Arteta made the right decision. AFC
but Murphy has questioned Arteta’s decision to bring him on, and claims there must be players “further ahead in their development” who could have been used instead..
“I have seen superstars come on the scene at a young age and thrive and go on and carry on, but there has also been a lot who have fallen by the wayside. “He is obviously a super talent, doing well in training and impressing everybody, but surely they have got other 18, 19 and 20-year-olds who are further ahead in their development who could have gone on the bench.Speaking after Arsenal’s routine win at Brentford, Arteta explained why he decided to bring on Nwaneri.
“It’s one step, one experience, so enjoy it and congratulations! It’s just one step and all the steps in your career are not forward and you have to know that. “You can go forward then backwards and then forwards. You fall, you go back – that’s, unfortunately, this industry and the football career of any player.”
