Yeah I saw this on ITV news and he is one talented boy but I think you can't really sign someone that young...it reminds me when Barca signed Messi at 11 and pulled him out of his life in Argentina...sometimes it can work but it can backfire.
saxondale.
wow, he's incredible.

He's going to be burned out by the time he's 16.

Anyone remember Sonny Pike? blink.gif Got to admit he's got brilliant skills but seriously needs to work on passing.

He is pretty amazing and I am sure he would have done better at Arsenal.
