Looks good. Wins the ball often and can play too despite his young age.

£12.5 million sounds very unrealistic though
 
At least put a decent picture of him.

Showing the lad showcasing his arm pit to the masses is not a good first impression.
 
Birmingham were docked 9 pts in May 2019 for breaching EFL rules regards FFP. Currently they look like they're gonna face more punishment from the EFL for the same reason.

I think Birmingham are gonna accept the reported proposal because they are left with no choice. They're perilously close to the drop and a points deduction could be extremely detrimental for their survival in the division.
 
Disappointed 2nd page and no YouTube compilation yet.

Jude Bellingham is a player like Pogba and Gravenberch (Ajax). I think he's the most talented of England's 2003 generation that includes Liverpool's Harvey Elliot (just bought this summer from Fulham). If we wanted a Pogba understudy, Bellingham would be a great fit. That's actually a very talented generation drawing comparisons to the 2000 generation (Sancho, Foden, CHO, Gomes). I've seen him play for England u17s (as the #8 of the side) and he's the best one on the team. They've outplayed teams off the park similar to that 2000 generation.

Not a particular work horse, but will get stuck in when needed. I think he'll be a good dribbler similar to Pogba from the middle of the park, and can provide some through balls, but also link up well in and around the box. He's still only 16 so it's a bit harder to see that quality against men compared to his time for the u17s.


We'd do well to get Sancho and Bellingham, which would set us up for the next 10 years to play alongside Greenwood, Gomes, Garner, Levitt, Rashford, Williams, Laird, Henderson, Mejbri, and Tuanzebe.

This is exactly how he has been described by people i've spoke to. Very cultured player that would be described as a artist on the continent.

@Devil may care This post from Rainbows seems to be that best that describes him as a player mate.
 
Pogba regen judging by the highlights. Get him, get him now!

Again, if it's something Birmingham actively want then I'm all for it. But I just get the feeling a lot of posters are fabricating a scenario where it's United insisting on loaning him back as a deal sweetener when Birmingham may not have even asked for it. If the latter is the case, they may sign a replacement and move on as Jude would no longer would have connections with the club, they would have no reason to develop a United player, they'd have every right to let him rot. If they do want to make use out of him then it's great for all parties.

The deal will have a lot off add-ons so they will have big incentives to develop him.

Sceptical the deal will happen though as his family have rejected moves to big clubs for years and see Birmingham as the best place for him to develop.

They’re 8points clear of Barnsley, wouldn’t call that perilously close, I think they will stay up as they always do.
 
Seems equally happy using either foot, strong lad, not sure how good aerially, but no little skills. If we get this lad, we would probably loan him back to The Blues, definitely for this season, and if depending on how he performs in pre season, possibly for another, but more likely to a Premiership club for a season. Swap with Lingard? Jesse famously scored 4 goals for Birmingham in one match, not sure if it was his debut for them or not.
 
Him with Mejbri and Garner in 3 men midfield, Rashford Greenwood and Sancho forward line = pushing for the Champions league for ten years strait.
 
My concern with buying him and loaning him back is the over reliance Birmingham have on him already! Playing so much as a 16 year old kid who’s body is not fully developed is not a good thing! I’d rather put him in our youth set up and gradually introduce him like we have done with our kids this season!
 
There's no chance we get him for 12m that's for sure. Does look unbelievable for 16 years old.

They have another points deduction coming their way it seems. Last season they were docked 9 points and this season they might even be handed a even severe punishment in comparison to last season for failing to adhere to league rules for a second time.
 
He looks great, let’s get him. The goal is to perpetually have a potentially great team in about 3 years at all times, but never actually get there.

Ah right. Maybe.

It's only press talk anyway so could be anything IF we're really interested. I guess his age would impact on any fee.

Yeah. I mean we paid around £20 million for 19 year old Dan James and Bellingham is one of his team's best 3 or 4 players at 16 years old. Would expect a fee similar or slightly above James

Tbh he doesn’t even have a pro contract yet so not sure why we’d pay that much. Compensation surely?

James was 21 when he signed for us
 
Signing this young kid would give me greater joy than signing Fernandes if i'm honest.

I am assuming that this compilation doesnt show the best of him. Because if they do then comparisons with Pogba at the same age are well wide of the mark. Pogba was doing outrageous things in the academy.

Pogba was hot and cold in the academy with Ravel Morrison the big star if truth be told.
