Don't think I have ever seen a kid like this before either. Kompany was also pretty strong for his age back in the day, but not like this.


On a sidenote: Belgian media are reporting that Anderlecht has recently (no more than a few days ago) received an offer of 21 million €.

Can anyone guess which team made the offer?

I'll give you a few tips: filthy rich team that collects strikers and is currently top 4 in the EPL.

It was before the Dzeko thing was official so unless Tevez really leaves, I don't see this happening.
Also ManU wants him, better to head there then to City, I think Fergie will give him more chances and has more patience with him then the people at City will have.
Ideal of course would be Juve but we aren't linked with him so I guess that is just a dream of mine.

Now that's the news i wanted to hear Dus

I didn't know Huntelaar came with Asian fanboys. Imagine the merchandising we'd get.

I can't believe people want this idiot.

Man City is already unraveling.

 

[JuveJay]

We aren't going to sign that bender anyway so no worries.

 

[ALC]

Well, they better hurry and buy a couple other strikers and midfielders before the Arsenal game or they won't be ready.

blah blah

For the typical stuff of questionning Lukaku or any african teenage athlete who isnt a midget basically, the growth rate and physical maturity (earlier start, hence usually dominating youth footie by african NTs) between africans and others are quite different to state the obvious.

The almost bigoted BS starts when you judge on same standards as others. Plus Lukaku is simply a extreme physical specimen (and he would be regardless of what continent he was born on).

I've never seen a club with so many mercenaries. It's like every_single_player they have has been at several clubs and makes big bucks. The only exception I can see is Micah Richards who developed in their youth academy.

Many have said the same about Freddy Adu. But you could tell he was quite young just by talking to him back in the day.

I'm sure there are some cases of fraudulent paper work from Africa, but it's not every player. And after all, Lukaku was born in Belgium.

Taye Taiwo's contract is expiring next summer and he still haven't signed a new contract with Marseille. Could be a great signing for us.

Yes, true. Unless they are older of course

I know he`s at Marseille since 2004, but still - does he possess an EU passport (french maybe) other than his nigerian?!
He would be a solid move though, and with his expiring contract...

Hey guys! how are we all today?

Hopefully Dzeko see's that and realizes the "Shit" show they are running their.

Magnusson sounds like a nice kid. Told him on FB to post here. Don't think he will though.

No, he's non-EU.

There IS (also lots of lack of record keeping means alot of unnecessary confusion), but the main BS is mainly expecting a black teenager to look as "young" as a white/asian etc teenager of same age. Simply dont at all.

I don't know about Lukaku, but Asamoah Gyan is 43 years old.
