Which of our players tried to tackle him there? [emoji38]

Absolutely no idea how I’ve managed to put this in the Miley thread. Apologies!

Was quite fitting, it was Miley who blocked him at the end.

Not seen pre-season but glad he looks to have talent.  

Unless it’s a super elite talent I don’t think he should be considered as part of the 25. At that age players should get luxury minutes (league cup, 3-0 up) or injury crisis minutes. Not 1 or 2 injuries.

Tbf the lad looks a generational talent. Get the 25 point though - I mean he is entirely free for any squad in any competition we're in this season. He won't be taking the spot of a more senior pro is what I mean.

 

But if he's ready, and he looks it, I wouldn't want a player who's already hit their ceiling standing in the way of Miley getting minutes.

HIT THE BAR ON HIS DEBUT MAN (maybe, I can't remember I just pretend to know things on the internet to seem popular and cool)

Played as a striker at the academy in his early years. He was playing up in the next age group in my lads team. Was a hell of a striker as well.

I've heard stories of PL players that compared to others that are seen as workhorses, unskilled, players that just put in the effort, absolutely dominating players of lower levels.

 

I'm sure I heard an anecdote of John Terry playing 5-aside with some friends and he played for one team in the first half scored 5 goals making it 5-0, then in the second half played for the other team and scored another 5 and it ended up 5-5.

Yeah, my mates wife used to go to school with Peter Ramage and at age 14/15 he just used to take the piss out of everyone, dribbling past them like prime Messi.

Love how he's still got a strong opinion having watched zero friendlies an' all. Classic TCD.

[emoji38] It’s the way everything has to have a negative spin. Just can’t help himself.

“Generational talent”, “kid will be world-class” etc. is putting a lot of hype and pressure on a young lad who’s just had some promising run-outs tbh. I hope he’s insulated from all of that as the minute he has a bad game you’ll hear “not ready”, “next Bigirimana”- which isn’t very helpful for him.

 

He does look like he has the athleticism and poise so far to go far though. Excited for his development!

Wasn't aware it's acceptable to push a player off the ball from behind, must be because he's a machine. Clear foul in my book.
