I think this lad is immense for his age and will obviously get better.. but i've had a thought for the past couple of days since he played against Coventry.. He is only 5ft 7... Does anyone feel he will be bullied because of his size??
he will need to beef up in strength but heigh wont be a problem but look at scholes - he aint exactly big yet plays similar to w-p
That's something to be proud of.. From our youth set up!!! Potentially.. we have a LB/CM in 4/5 years time playing for England! if only we can get in the prem and show our accountability
David silva,aguero,villa,messi,xavi,scholes are pretty good players aren't they?Not that tall aswell...
I feel that it's good to have at least one tall central midfielder. That's what Football Manager has taught me anyway.
I think we can all list little fellas who have made it at the top of the game and it should be much easier these days as it is pretty much become a non contact sport
See a little fella in any team and you know he's probably got something. He is probably still growing at 17...I believe that men of Anglo-Saxon descent don't reach their full height as early as other Europeans (read that somewhere).
