Imagine 2years of Bruce and Ashley with him, ugh poor lad would be that dejected with football he'd probably quit and rather work at McDonald's.

Ben Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 I heard last night that some dickhead (probably makem) pull the wing mirrors off one of the cars outside his house and that was the final straw so they moved. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NUFC91 Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 (edited) Hard to put a finger on who to compare him too but way he recieves and plays ball reminds me of Michael Cartick at times, Carrick was like that at West Ham and Spurs then obviously dropped deeper under Fergie Edited December 3, 2023 by NUFC91 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lush Vlad Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 I don’t know how to word this without it making it sound like I’m insulting him and saying he is slow. But it is as if the game and the ball moves a lot slower for him than everyone else. Looks so calm and measured with everything he does. Never seems flustered or rushed. Does the simple things really well and effectively. He certainly plays beyond his years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wait until he fills out - you have to be careful with him until he stops growing - then watch him go - he’s so good on the ball - so clever - learning with every second he’s on the pitch Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 (edited) He's too relaxed to be compared to any player at 17. Not idea how it ends up for him, but Carrick wasn't anywhere near this level at 17, no Lampard, or Gerrard. Only player at 17 which looked this good was Bellingham (who was better in the Championship) and he's got it in him to be the worlds greatest. Whether he gets to those levels is mainly (sparing injuries which hampered Carrick) up to him. He'll grow with the club and at a point his limit will be reached, but hopefully with England caps & club silverware, who knows, might even be playing alongside Bellingham for club and country Edited December 3, 2023 by Dokko Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OverThere Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 This kid is the real deal. Very calm and measured in the pass. I hardly remember him making a bad pass or giving the ball away which obviously is a very good trait. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 Really pleased we're getting good results whilst he's having his run in the side, he absolutely deserves the shirt on merit at the moment. It'll be good to get options back from injury again but I'd like to think he's now forced his way into the matchday squad and will be in there somewhere even with a full compliment of fit players now. He's come up against some big name, big money players and looked totally unfazed. Looks like he was made for the big stage. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought Anderson would be the next academy product to make his mark but unfortunately he’s permanently fighting niggly tweaks and muscle injuries. Miley has the chance to give us the depth in Longstaff’s position we’ve missed. Bruno and Tonali (Phillips interim?) Longstaff and Miley Joelinton and Willock Almiron and Murphy Gordon and Barnes Isak and Wilson I think the above highlighted shows where we need to get the next recruits in. Miggy to challenge whoever comes in for Murph and a third option to cover for Cal’s gammy hammy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is also good, was impressed by him in the first leg. Could Miley be on the same level? Genuine wonderkid if so. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ryanegg Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 First time I seen him play in the flesh was Saturday, he looks a lot taller than what he looks on the telly😂 definitely gonna be a handful once he fills out a bit. Like many have said, he looks so confident all around. Movement, communication, everything is beyond his years. Seen Gordon having a good chat with him just before kickoff, looks like they’ve got a good relationship. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 He's made the loss of Tonali seem less damaging for our season, we really needed a midfielder to step up. A lot to ask from a 17 yr old but his laid back style makes it look easier than it should. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
