    I havent seen that much of him but I wouldnt have thought he's the best youngster in Europe or league

    He's got potential, but best in Europe? No chance. Not on current form. He's not even the best youngster in the premiership at the moment. Hazard will walk YPOTY, and I'd place loads of players above based on their play this season. Barkley? Deulofeu? Sterling? Shaw? I think those players and perhaps a few more have been better than Januzaj. I'm not going to say he's not a huge talent , but he's still only potential at the moment - a lot like Zaha (although Januzaj has been far better than Zaha this season!)

    Does the word of the Italian version of the Daily Star count for anything?

    Unlike the others though this is literally his first season and hes come from nowhere.

    I would agree hes not the very best but cant argue him getting the award. hes exploded onto the scene and been one of our standout players

    Why am i not suprised that 2 dippers disagree with the list. He is definitely the most talented teenager in Europe currently, I wouldn't swap him for any other teenager. Hazard is 23 so it's no suprise that he's better now, but Januzaj will be a lot better than Hazard once he's 23 :biggrin:

    Probably the same reason we're not surprised you believe he is the best in Europe.;)

    We can only assume you've watched every young player in Europe to make your bold statement.<whistle>

    Lets point a few things out so we can disregard some opinions.

    Ronaldo - never the best in the league or the world according to Liverpool fans

    Scholes - not the best english midfielder of the past 20 years according to Liverpool fans

    De Gea - Not as good as mingolet according to Liverpool fans

    Hazard is a youngster...... according to Liverpool fans

    Joe Allen is Barcelona quality..... according to Liverpool fans

    and so on....

    As you can see we can disregard the views of those who support Liverpool when it comes to football matters.

    Draxler and Pogba are far better then Januzaj. Only a year apart.

    Not to mention Lukaku, Shaw, Barkley and Chamberlain. Even Sterling has shown just as much promise.

    Did you do a not606 headcount to come up with those figures?

    Every youngster that signs for Utd is immediately labeled "superkid" or "the next Best", " the next Robson" etc but very few since Scholes and Giggs have lived up to the billing.

    Januzaj is a great prospect no doubt about it, but he aint lit up the league this season, ain't scored a lot of goals and hasn't been deemed good enough for the starting lineup on a few occasions this season.

    Another to add to the list of reasons why the opinion of liverpool fans should be ignored.

    I'd rather Sterling over Januzaj at this moment in time, far more direct and effective


    Januzaj's concentrating on taking chavy girls out to Nandos chicken, hes in danger of ****ing it all up

    Whereas Sterling is a paragon of virtue I suppose?

    With his string of illegitimate kids and his arrest for assaulting a bird and the like

    I doubt you would be saying that if it was Sterling.
