Players you've got scouted for the future


Recommended Posts

Is Bojan going to become the player everyone thought he might after his goalscoring exploits as a kid? I know very little about him other than he's absolutely tiny and regularly on the bench for Barca.

 

I was about to bring Bojan up on my above post (we had Haruna Babangida already, silly goalscoring record as a kid, nowt as an adult). I think Bojan has it for being a successful striker at top level though, he holds the record for most goals scored in La Liga in a debut season (10). The problem is that he will have a hard time capturing the 9 jersey for Barça (Eto'o had an injury-ridden season the year he achieved that 10 goal figure), and that can stagnate his career. Even Raúl started his career on the wing...

Was going to say Bojan actually. Remember seeing him a few seasons ago in pre-season against Dundee United & Hearts and even at 16 he looked a class above.

Diego Capel as well. Lived in Andalucia when he made his debut at 17 I think back in 2004 and saw him in a game for Sevilla 'B' against Real Jaen and he was quality.

Read about Romelu Lukaku in World Soccers excellent "Player to Watch" feature  which was  a few months back & today there  was  full page article in the Daily Mail about him. Bottom line he is being billed as the next Drogba. Scored 8 goals already for Anderlechet, natrually every major club in europe is hovering

Dominic Adiyah was awesome at recent U20 world cup

Giuliano played at the U20 cup for Brazil was captain & wore the 10 shirt so he was worth keeping a eye on

 

A name I came across this week who I will be keeping a eye on is Lewis Holtby

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_Holtby

 

Lewis is Germany U21 captain & it seems England may be trailing him now,

Alexis Sanchez was pretty sexy in the WC n all. Can't imagine it'll be long before Sakho moves up to the big time either.

You make him sound like a murderer, it was only a car crash was it not?

 

Aye but he was driving and therefore fairly responsible.

 

Anyways, it being South America, he is back playing now. Interesting to see how his career pans out.
