Arsene Wenger backed Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain for a chance at a place in Fabio Capello's Euro 2012 squad, and the Arsenal manager hopes the winger will continue to impress at the Emirates.
Oxlade-Chamberlain impressed in the 2-1 defeat to Manchester United last weekend, and fans are hoping that the player will soon become a first team regular for the Gunners.
Now his manager Wenger has surprisingly linked "The Ox" with a call up to the England squad.
"You cannot rule it out and it is not because you are young that you cannot play. We will see in the next three months and if he does well, why not?" said Wenger.
"We live in a world of immediacy. I would not have expected him to be so mature in September because he still looked like a boy. Now suddenly he looks like he can take pressure and that he has the personality to produce under pressure.
"But he has only really played one game at the top, so let's see how well he does."
