Ex Arsenal midfielder praises youngster.
Arsenal hero Ray Parlour has congratulated youngster Robbie Burton on his performances in pre-season.
Parlour sent a message to Burton in response to his message about how much he enjoyed being a part of the USA tour.
Burton missed a penalty in the shootout against Real Madrid, but simply being there to take it was a sign of his progress.
Burton, 19, is a Wales youth international who began last season with Arsenal’s under-18 side.
It’s unlikely he will feature much for Arsenal this upcoming season, at least in the league.
He has a chance of some Europa League games, with manager Unai Emery giving game time to youngsters in the competition last season.
Burton’s efforts in pre-season give him a chance, with the talented midfielder showing a glimpse of his potential.
