Very good player just lost his way and had the ability coached out of him.
He was making adults look like fools before he was a teen.
what, like, 12?
Yup.
Decent players too.
Ah, right! Thought that was a typo
Did you know people that played against him as a youngster then?
Yes, he grew up a stones throw from me.
We used to play in the local park together (when Leeds would let him)
Nice, is it a case of too much too young?
That said, it's not as if he's tumbled down the leagues.
