Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger says it won't be long before his first team is dominated by English talent.
"I feel we have produced some good work from the behind as well, with good young players," the Arsenal manager said.
"We have good first year [scholars], and it is a good young English generation.
"It is very promising and very good.
"We hope that in a few years we will have some very strong English players who can of course be a good mixture with players from abroad."
Wenger quipped: "We want to develop domestic players - especially after the result on Wednesday night!"
