I don't see Suarez as outstanding but the fact he is now playing for Barca should be a warning to those on here who write our kids off at 18.

Denis is an outlier. Every other young players that left our club have shown that they just didn't have the quality to be in the first team.

Suarez hasn't got the quality to be in the first team. But he could do a job occasionally to keep players fresh. As could plenty who have left & plenty who are about to leave without getting a game in their City careers as it's now too late.

Please, please, please let us sign this kid. He looks insane on YouTube for such a young player. The ball control, balance, technique, awareness, ability. He looks like a potential world beater.

So does every other fooker on utube :)

'Plenty who have left' - I'm curious who these are?

I think he looks fantastic.

Same, I still think he'll be the first one to break through

Maybe he would not have become that good if he had stayed. City would not have been able to offer him the same amount of playing time to develop in. It's a bit of a catch 22 with these young players.

Another young one coming

Well if that twitter is correct, another excellent youngster on our books.

I think you are absolutely spot on, & that barca etc have a much better system. which is beyond our control due to regulations etc, but then I also think we have had two managers who don't give a toss about anything but themselves, which has made it far far worse for any kids involved & i'm glad he pair of them have fucked off.

And now i have to make the effort to be up in the morning, to see the U19s & It's not convineint, to say the fucking least.

To clarify, I'm not saying he's an outstanding player, it's just in 3 out of the 4 or 5 matches I saw him play in he was outstanding.

In the first match I had to look him up in Google to double check if it was the same player. He was Silva-esque in his skill and technique and stood out in a decent Villareal side. Barca are no mugs so the fact they've signed him backs up the displays I saw last season.

As for Lopes, albeit everyone was raving about him I couldn't see what all the fuss was about tbh. I hope the talent most others saw in him comes to the fore and he realises his full potential, but based on what I saw of him I can only see an average career ahead. I hope he proves me completely wrong.........
