LONDON —Arsenal has secured the futures of five key players, with Jack
Wilshere, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Kieran Gibbs, Aaron Ramsey, and Carl
Jenkinson signing new deals. Patrick Willis Super Bowl Jersey . Arsenal
has lost a string of top talent in recent years, including Robin van Persie and
Cesc Fabregas. But Wednesdays announcement of new long-term contracts for five
players comes after Arsenal rose to fifth in the English Premier League by
beating Reading 5-2 on Monday following its worst start to a season since Arsene
Wenger took charge in 1996. “We are delighted that these five young players have
all signed new long-term contracts,” Wenger said. “The plan is to build a team
around a strong basis of young players, in order to get them to develop their
talent at the club. “Jack is certainly the best known, the leader of this group
—but the other four players are exceptional footballers, and were very happy
that we could conclude their new deals at the same time.” The 20-year-old
Wilshere, one of Englands most exciting young midfield prospects, and the
23-year-old defender Gibbs rose through Arsenals youth ranks. Ramsey, the
21-year-old Wales midfielder, has been with Arsenal since 2008.
Oxlade-Chamberlain, a 19-year-old winger, joined Arsenal from Southampton in
2011 when the 20-year-old defender Jenkinson arrived from Charlton. “I believe
when you have a core of British players, its always easier to keep them together
and thats what well try to achieve going forward,” Wenger said. But Arsenal is
yet to resolve its drawn-out contract stand-off with Theo Walcott, whose
contract expires at the end of the season. Steve Young Womens Jersey . The Tigres

cent” of the snaps with the first team on Thursday. Pittsburgh is tied with
