Sorry to one and all if this has already been covered,but could he make it big with us.
Just been watching the 10 minute clip of him for Breda and he certainly has a great engine on him,can beat a man and can find a man pretty much every time.
Or am I seeing too much of him at a lower level ?

Mentioned him a couple of months ago in the Agyepong thread

Devine has been doing quite well and having Enes Unal there will help him. They link up pretty well and Enes has scored 4 in 5. Although they have been scoring for fun since Enes joined and Verbeek has been dropped to the bench.
Devine breaks up play well but has not really been the attacking midfielder, Brands has been doing that. He has supported well though and could well develop in that defensive midfield role that breaks up attacks and keeps the ball. More De Jong but not as aggressive [more] a deep laying playmaker.

His 18 months are up so he will be reporting back into Manchester this summer. Yes it will be difficult to see where he is without having weighed him up against the other Academy lads.
Has though had a decent number of minutes under his belt in a pro league.
He has been patchy and both coaches Dijkhuizen, he did not play him much when he joined in October but credit to Naah he got back in the team and stayed and former gaffer Maaskant (interesting translation) had the same initial doubts before playing him regularly. Seems Mallam, as he is known, must have some good mental strength.

It seems his passing has been picked up, just need to settle him in somewhere. Cannot see him jumping over Brahim or if he dropped a bit further back, Byrne will be there. Interestingly they have both played in relegated teams. Nooit opgeven altijd doorgaan,Aangenaam door vermaak en nuttig door ontspanning, Combinatie Breda being slightly a better team than Cambuur.
 
Why not? I just hope he will be finally officialy taken to City's pre-season so he owuld play friendlies and Pep would take a look at him.
