So how can you say he's notHe has played less than 10 hours of professional football in his entire career
Because that's not how it works. You can't just presume someone is world class until proven otherwiseSo how can you say he's not

691 minutes plus pre-season, and it was his pre-season form that created the excitement. He was doing dribbles and seeing passes that no one else was.He has played less than 10 hours of professional football in his entire career

He’s the best prospect from our youth team for sure but has a long way to go yet. He could do as well as Palmer if all goes well.Bobb isn't world class, but the potential is world class. He's a special talent.

…. The rags and the dippers have loads of world class talent in their youth ranks who’ve hardly played… I know because the media tell me … : )
I think people are confused.
Bobb is our Pedri, and is already world class.
I'd argue there is nobody in the squad right now that has this combination of ball control, dribbling, and weight of pass that Bobb does. He is our David Silva regen.
If Bobb can be fit and hasn't lost what he was before, he will reinvigorate our season.

Buzzing that he’s back. Hopefully the second half of this season is similar to the 16/17 when we picked up form and the new lads like Sane and Jesus brought some life to the team.

It's a better attitude than assuming someone is shite until they prove otherwise.
He is a special talent. Haaland, Marmoush, Foden and Bobb in our current system will tear things up.

If you like, we have a hundred youth players at the club that you can pretend are Messi aswell

Excited to see Bobb, he's coming back right at the end of his estimated recovery time so hopefully he has been built up slowly behind the scenes and is ready to go! He's such a natural footballer who understands the game, as long as he's physically ready I feel the sharpness will come back quickly for him.

Can we all agree that he’s the most exciting Norwegian prospect that we’ve had since Omar Elabdellaoui?

Was expecting to see Bobb named amongst the subs last night going off Pep’s pre match comments. Hopefully this weekend.

Scoring a great goal at Newcastle away and being best player on the summer tour does not put him in the world class bracket, far from it. He has hardly played any games for us for a start.
When he's been playing consistently great at least two seasons influential in games, scoring and assisting in the PL in Europe and for his country he may be considered as World class.
As much as I've liked what I've seen of young Oscar so far, right now he's still an exciting prospect with a lot to prove.

To be world class I believe it means you would be wanted by all the elite clubs
