No pal. I hoped you or 74 can give me a bit of insight into the potential of the lad. We've got a decent lad in reserves who's name escapes me at the minute.
He's a winger/striker with Jamaican descent, so the comparisons to Barnes will start, but he's all about speed and agility over power. He looks a cut above at that age, especially when you consider he's not long turned 16. Technically he's decent, but wouldn't say he oozes with end product. He can pass and cross quite well, shoots very well and seems to be good on either foot. Not sure what his best position is yet, when I first seen him he was on the right and he reminded me of SWP, but he's also been on the left cutting in like a forward. Unsure how he'll develop, but he'll draw comparisons to other British wingers like SWP, Young and Lennon, but the potential is there for him to be better than them all. We have another young lad called Toni Silva, he's Portuguese, I've not seen too much of him, watched highlights of him and he looked a big lad, but many say he has shed loads of talent. The view seems to be that our young Spaniard 'Suso' is the 'one', though, keep your ears open for him.
