in a couple years when he gets his first year in the U18's the hype and slagging off of this kid are going to reach all new levels, people will be furious if he is not getting game time by 17
United Signs 9 Year old Rhain
- Thread starter Drifter
- Start date
Does he have a song yet?

You are assuming that he has developed as expected. There is every chance that he is unremarkable in his age group now.
"Davis Rhain on City's Parade" As he secures United the title on the final day in x years time.
Damn you for updating this thread. Got my hopes up on there actually being some news
kinda my point, i don't expect him to be a Rooney or Ronaldo playing at 17 but many will and will complain that he is not playing or not good enough to make it without actually watching him
Purple Rhain
Why does it always Rhain on me?

No chance. Did you watch that youtube video properly?
Cherno Samba scored over a hundred goals in a single youth season when he was a kid...
Rhain is, what, 14-15 now? If he's made it, we might see him next season in some Under-18s fixtures, and the season after that, but he's surely at least 2 years off making appearances for the Under-18s (followed by an inevitable promotion to the first-team and scoring a hat-trick in the Champions League final).
There was one championship manager game where he was insane.
used to always sign him, goal machine
Cherno Samba - £3m from Millwall ... Think it was CM 00/01 or CM 01/02 and he would turn into a beast.
Anyway. This Rhain lad has to seriously bulk up.

Didn't realise he was from the same age group as Marcus Rashford who has a little bit of hype behind him
Here are some expert words from the man who coached Wayne Rooney and some other people in the game of scouting talents.
The man who coached Rooney as a boy, Everton's academy manager Ray Hall, warns there are no guarantees.
Understandably, United have tempered expectations, reiterating that they take on 30 nine-year-olds every year, of which Davis is only one.
Davis must now survive the annual cut at Old Trafford and even if he does that, there is little guarantee he will play for United.
Football agent Sky Andrews says it is impossible to tell which way a nine-year-old will go.

And bouncebackability. Dont forget that.
Yep. Could be "hello love" or "hello sailor". Only time will tell.
Snooty was clearly taking the piss.
Rhain is still with us, he is however a completely different type of player than he was as a nine year old. Not the same amount of hype now, that should be a good thing.
It's good to hear he's still on. No matter what he's probably guaranteed a good football future where he can earn his living. It's crazy how high the standard demands are for a player on this forum. To be able to play for one of the biggest clubs in the world your talent has got to be enormous. And yet that's not even enough to make it to the first team. Players in the first team that we tend to call crap still had enough talent to make it all the way.
Don't tell me he is a defender now?
Or GK?
Not that dramatic, but not as dribbling, flashy type of player. Doing the other sides of football much better and not as reliant on skills.

After all he came to England so skill and dribbling were not going to be emphasized.
Rashford picked for England U16s over him. both are `97s.

Ronaldo Anderson Hargreaves Rhain

Well. This ended well.
