The Top 10 Football League stars of tomorrow article covering the talent around and young ben gets a mention..

Ben Purrington (17, defender, Plymouth)
60-second story: Exeter-born left-back Purrington joined local rivals Plymouth’s youth system aged nine, and signed his first professional contract with the Pilgrims last May after only completing one year of his apprenticeship in the club's academy. On Boxing Day he was gifted a full debut by manager John Sheridan - a 3-2 victory at Oxford - and has gone on to feature regularly since. The 17-year-old has recently been nominated for the League Two Apprentice of the Year award, and looks set to win a call-up to England's U18 squad soon enough.
Purrington’s quick rise through the ranks has not gone unnoticed, with a host of Premier League and Championship clubs rumoured to be tracking the youngster. Argyle won't be keeping hold of him for much longer at this rate.

The longer he stays 'under the radar' the better.

What really shocks me is how we still have Curtis Nelson with us, and thank goodness.
