    He's got plenty of time to develop and already has the physique to challenge fully grown strikers.
    His technique didn't look too shabby when he played that glorious 50 yard ball from RCB to LFWD for Origi to nod back for an assist in the cup game, he played a few of them too

    Yeah, of course. Also had a few first touches to rival that cross field ball in length too.

    Not to mention at times getting the ball fully under control took him around 12 years. But he's aware of this and I'm sure he'll be working on it.

    what ever happened to the 1970s footballers that were baldies in their 20s?. They looked like old men. It was only when you saw their face up close you realized they were young fellas. Guess footballers have more hair these days and the like to show it off

    Ha ha, that reminds me of a fella back in the 80's who played for someone like St Mirren in Scotland and I mustve got about 50 doubles of him for my painini sticker book. Everytime was the same response, "not that baldy fucker again " 😃😃

    Oh yeah, And the 1980s and 90s games shows where peoples glasses were almost half the size of the persons face.
