Jude Bellingham

[TonyM]

As good as he is now, imagine how good he was last year. He was only 16 ffs.

 

[Irishblue93]

What sort of money is this guy worth now? Transfer market says he signed for Dortmund for 20million, I taught it was 30. Dortmund probably will value him at 50million already

 

[decmancity]

Best we can hope is Dortmund continue to falter in the league, if Haaland goes and their next striker doesn't work then they could be in trouble. He then might want a move and we have to make sure we are there to get involved.

 

[oldhamblue]

They must have thought a lot of him at Brum. They retired his shirt number.

 

[waspish]

In this climate no one can afford what Dortmund would want

 

[Zabbasbeard]

Saw him a few, times for Brum last season. What a player. Last night convinced me we should move for him. I'd rather him than Haaland.

 

[Dipsis_LTU_MC]

He is the best Dihno replacement I've seen anywhere. Not the same kind of player, but Similar in having multiple fscets to their skillset.

He is most comparable to Fabihno at Liverpool. And if I remember correctly, long before he, Fabihno, became a Liverpoolian trash we all now dislike, he was the one most of us wanted as the Fernandihno successor. Bellingham is a lot like him.

Hence, he is a lot like the successor we once dreamed of.

Agreed, but still not entirely convinced about his defensive side of the game in transition, i.e. reading the situation when to make an interception or intervene. Fernandinho was/is the best at it.

Told you all you can't trust bald people, he's after scalping someone and stealing their hair.

 

[aguero93:20]

3 years on his contract to tap him up and pull a Lewandowski on Dortmund.

Yep. Payback for Sancho too. 20 probably the perfect age to get him, as well as good timing for us looking at our midfielders ages.

He is 17 though .

Fernandinho has mastered his game over many years.

 

[Phil1]

Look forward to seeing his development over the next couple of years.
Carries on with this trajectory I imagine we will be interested when Dortmund are ready to sell.

He's 17 mate, that stuff comes with experience. Dinho hadn't even broken into Athletico Paranaense's senior team at that age, he was playing u20 football.

I’d rather both. Wonder if we could get a two player discount?

 

[Keeper!]

Looks a class act already, if he keeps real and does not believe the hype that will be coming his way, he is going to be one hell of a player.

 

[dcye]

This boy is special, why weren't we in for him last summer especially at 25M

He went to Dortmund to play. He would not have played here, at least not very regularly.

 

[jay_mcfc]

Oh boy. What a superstar in the making.

 

[BlueTG]

By the time he’s 18 he’ll have almost 100 professional appearances. He’ll become quite the player.

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

He visited City and United on the same day with his parents. He's hardly an unknown.

United even rolled out Ferguson at Carrington to really lay it on thick. United were actually willing to pay £35m upfront for a 16-year-old plus £10m in add-ons.

Thankfully, he listens to his mum and that was a let-off for us.

Immense talent.

...and he'll become a crock if they continue to use him the way they do. History shows playing that much at such a young age can't be good for the health long-term

He won't be playing as much once they've a few players back.
