That name is a Moutha-full
What about that one with the giant head?
I have seen him a lot for Standard Liege u16. Incredible talent, potentially world class. Nice physique, very good reflexes and very good with the ball in his feet. Typical leader as well. He should work on his physicality, he's a bit weak imo. He'll have to improve on controlling the ball with his feet too, he's a bit shite sometimes. Otherwise a very humble lad. Sometimes a bit arrogant. He's usually shite and I don't think he'll ever make it for us.
A form player clearly.
How many keepers do we have now? Didnt we buy a big Serbian kid recently?
Can never have enough keepers.
It was obviously a joke
Make your mind up!
why on earth would I watch Standard Liege U16 games? Never seen the lad play.They're different age groups. We only had 1 u18 keeper and I think we've signed 2 so we'll have 3 now, could be wrong though
Only 2 at U18s level next season (this lad and Oliver Byrne) and a shedload at U21s level.
We only has signed this lad who's an U16.The Portuguese GK (Virginia) hasn't signed yet and he's U15.
Ah, so I was wrong.
Is he gonna?
What a name!! Welcome, mutha.
Keepers are always a difficult one. We have some outstanding keepers in the lower age groups, but if you don't develop physically, you're going to struggle regardless of talent. Therefore, I can totally understand why the club bring in lots of keepers around the 16-18 age.
Ilias my name in Arabic
my name in ArabicI'd think it's likely but we have to wait until January (or so) for him to turn 16.
Next Courtois.
That's Mike Svilar.
Next Svilar.
It was obviously a joke
No idea. Genk U17s are far more entertaining.
feck that's right. I should switch team.
Yeah he's waiting for clearance. He played for Belgium u17s in a 1-1 Draw against Norway yesterday. They had a penalty shootout afterwards and he saved 3
Is he our player already or we are yet to sign him? I think based on his recent performance Woody might bid 15 million for him though.
1.85 according to that player profile page but only 16 (birthday was in April) so a lot of time to grow. Anyone seen this lad at all?
This is getting boring. Can we not turn every thread into the same thing
Okay. Can you give some info on his potential then? I think right now we have been signing too many goalkeepers and do you think he can realistically make it here?
Considering he still hasn't played any match for our U18s, how can anyone possibly answer your question?
Well, there is always a chance of someone having seen him play for the previous team though, isn't there? Also he played tonight apparently, I tried to find links to see his game but couldn't but then again someone might have seen that and given their assessment. I was hoping along those lines.
Phew, we were getting short on goalkeepers...
Is this a new thing for us, signing a number of keepers at that age group?
We might finally see a world class homegrown GK come through soon maybe.

We were actually.
