I still am reserving judgement on him but he's got to use the championship as a stepping stone as well as take advantage or Norwich's youth development plan. Not go to Chelsea or United and get loan moves to other sides until 2030. He's got to do similarly to what Dele Alli did at MK Dons. My point is, do you just 'scout' players based on when youth players get linked with big clubs? and you didn't mention that he'd been linked with Man U in your first post about him, which suggested that you randomly found him, not that you'd just seen him linked with Man U then googled him for 5 mins. Hardly a genius idea that is it? And how do you plan to 'scout' Adam Idah? The only way of 'scouting' him would be to watch him play (a full game) how do you intend on watching Norwich U18 games?

No. I know its a shock to you given your big vendetta, but I use Youtube or Wyscout to watch Ireland Republic games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you knew about him before Man U were linked with him? You’ve still dodged that question. No way did you watch the full Georgie cIreland u17 game haha how stupid do you think I am. Is vendetta a new word you’ve learnt? Reminds me of the kids I used to teach England that would just repeat new words that they learnt. They were like 10 years old though.

Brian 2018. ‘As a journalist I believe you have a vendetta against me’ Its not that I believe you have a vendetta against me, I know you do. Actually that post kind of proved my point. And no I had no idea Man United was linked to him. I found him on Wyscout, watched a few clips and then saw that game to ses his tactical play and consistency. If you don't want to believe I watched that game that's up to you. As for your other question, I do believe you are pretty stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't say I've seen him a whole lot mate - I don't make reports on players I haven't seen. All I can tell you is that he's played for Argentina in the 2016 olympics which wasn't a very good campaign, but I don't know if he's an exception in that squad.

Guest Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 Here is another one. Saw this lad in the Generational Cup, that youth tournament the MLS hosted. I actually didn't know about his fitness since the game was 35 minute halves, so I put what I saw although that one could be wrong. However, he's a short center back. Tiny in fact, but he's surprisingly good in the air. Unbeatable with the impressive leap that he has. Very good at defending too. Downside is his attacking and ball control isn't great so he's very much a no-nonsense defender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Stan 18,365 Posted April 10, 2018 Administrator Share Posted April 10, 2018 he's less than 5ft tall?! Can't see him getting far as a central defender being that short. That'll hold him back. I know some of the great centre-backs have been less than 6ft, but to not even be 5ft tall would work against him surely.

I know some of the great centre-backs have been less than 6ft, but to not even be 5ft tall would work against him surely. He could work as a simple anchor man then. If he's not working as a central defender, maybe a holding midfielder could do but only that because he's not very good on the ball. Edit: I could have actually gotten the measurement wrong,, 5'8 feet tall, which is 1,47 metres I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 @Stan He's actually 5'8. The measurement equalizer said that translates to 1,47 metres. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toinho 2,210 Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 Can someone explain the graph percentages to me one more time? The highest percentage means that is the players strebgth?

The highest percentage means that is the players strebgth? And it's x amount better than his next highest percentage? Don't try. It makes no sense at all. According to Brian's graph, if the kid gets any better at ball control, he'll have to lose a skill point in some other attribute. Fortunately that's not how the human body works. It would be a good graph in a world where people who get stronger also got proportionally dumber. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
