Aarons has been a sensation in his limited appearances for Newcastle. The 19-year-old winger saved his manager's job with various goals, using his frightening pace to score past Manchester City in the Capital One Cup. In a 16-minute cameo against Crystal Palace, Aarons scored, hit the post and set up Mike Williamson's dramatic late goal. Aarons could be hindered by being at Newcastle United, who aren't exactly known for developing youngsters. If they can resist the temptation to replace him with a cheap French or Dutch alternative, Aarons could develop into quite the player. Another potential problem is the recurrence of a hamstring injury - something that ruins so many promising careers. Predictably, those impressive performances have seen him dubbed the new Raheem Sterling and linked with Arsenal, but there's no foundation to such rumours. In August, Aarons declared his interest in representing England rather than Jamaica and has since played for England under-20s.
