5 best U21 Players at Arsenal according to FM 18

Arsenal v Brighton and Hove Albion - Premier League

3. Ben Sheaf

Young Gunner
Hammer to Gunner Sheaf

Ben Sheaf is still making his way through the Arsenal setup. A central defender signed from West Ham in 2013-14, Sheaf can play in a variety of positions across the pitch. He is currently recovering from a long-term injury and should be fit in a couple of months in the game.

It is almost incredible that Sheaf has made just one appearance so far. His Arsenal debut came as a substitute in a Europa League game against Belgrade last month. Sheaf could be a real star for the future.

What really makes Sheaf stand out in the game is the number of positions he can play in. He is listed as a central defender but has the potential to be retrained literally anywhere on the pitch except as a forward. He is clearly the manager's dream.

However, with that comes the curse of the extremely versatile - 'Jack of all Trades, Master of None'. It is probably for the best if Sheaf is focused on a couple of positions at best at least for the first few years so that he can actually reach his potential and not become a bit-part player suited for the substitutes bench.
