I've likened him to a young McNamara before. Sometime back, I recalled a young and exciting Liverpool player who tore a gaping ar*ehole out of the Sunderland defence on a day the lads looked second best, May 1992ish.
He hasn't shown very much of what we saw of the final third of last season, when he was carving up experienced defenders on that right hand side. Good find Comm, the sum 20 million being mentioned and all.
Jeezus we got some ****ing numbnuts on this forum - the clamour at this time was that he wasn't good enough for the first team at mid-table Sunderland. Now people are screaming we should have kept him if we are to have our carpet and eat it, like a more ambitious Liverpool side.
Why do I have the impression they're the same people?
