He was a rafa signing for 600k but add on mean £5 million could be paid for him.
I just dont rate the kid, I dint think hyping up people who have 3 kids at 17 years old is a good thing for the younguns
His ability is a bit like Pacheco, Looks good at a lower level but has shown nothing to suggest he can be a solid player to me.
He constantly runs into trouble, Doesn't score enough... Just what do people actually see in this boy?
Coupled with the fact he didnt come out and say I want to play for England and he hasn't signed a contract and his ridiculous wage demands I think he should leave.
We can save £4 million by restricting his appearences and not having to play the add ons.
18 months time he could leave for free, If he's not signed up by 2 weeks he should be sold.
£10 million would be a fair price for an 18 year old England prospect with no end product. Walcott went for £5 but £12 including add ons and he had achieved much more at his age.
We're kind of dammed either way..
If we dont sell and keep him he could leave for nothing..
If we sign him up to a riduclous contract all the others will want the same
If we sell him people will outrage.
I think selling him is the lesser of all those evils. It would set a president to all the other players... We will not be held to ransom.
Just who the hell does this kid think he is?
As the poster above has stated. A lot of your gripe is from the Internet media
1) Three kids?? Internet whispers.
2) Will sign a contract within a few weeks. Media again blowing it up.
3) Played for England at every level and now thinking about Jamaica? Media again blowing it up.
4) Scored 1 set-up 5 so far this season in his FIRST full season so far.
5) HIS ONLY TURNED 18 not 28
