Arsenal boasted the youngest starting XI on the opening weekend of Premier League this season as Mikel Arteta’s youth revolution continues. The Gunners included 20-year-old Bukayo Saka, as well as 21-year-olds Gabriel Martinelli and William Saliba, who made his top flight debut in the 2-0 win over Crystal Palace. Martinelli headed Arsenal ahead before Saka’s cross was deflected in to ensure Arteta’s young guns made a far better start than the did 12 months prior when they lost to Brentford. Arsenal and Southampton were the only two teams to have an average starting XI age of under 25, with the north Londoners just pipping the Saints by 0.1 of a year at 24.7 to 24.8 years. Arteta is in the midst of a squad overhaul which saw experienced striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang shipped out to Barce...
