Jude Bellingham

[Saddleworth2]

Good player. Was very wound up last night but seemed to prosper from it. Would benefit from Peps coaching, no doubt about that. A true box to box midfielder would be a good asset to the team and this lad looks quite a bit further on than Tommy Doyle.

That's an understatement if ever I saw one. Chalk and cheese. Doyle would benefit from a loan where he will be playing all the time. At the moment Bellingham is probably the best under 18 English player anywhere in the world. Would love him at City in two or three seasons.

Magnificent player already, Doyle at this moment is nowhere near this level, if Jude keeps his head , keeps learning , he could go on to be one of the greats.

Did he play second half, must have missed it

I think he did 90 minutes worth of running in the first half alone.

I think with experience you learn to curb that sort of youthful eagerness.

I doubt it's possible to put in that much effort over a full game.

But what a wonderful prospect he looks.

 

[Wretched Vengeance]

Speaks with incredible maturity.

17 I would have him tmrw

Contract expires in 2023, so Dortmund have to sell next summer or lose him for free if he holds off on another contract.

Now has to be the time to get the hooks into him, make sure he holds off on that deal for at least a year.

The problem for Dortmund IMO is they've paid him too much to begin with. They paid £30m and gave him about £50k/week - that's insane money for a 17 year old so he's got no pressing need to sign a new deal.

 

[buhz]

would be the heir to gündogan, when gündi starts to slow down. Imagine him and bernardo running the midfield with energy and creativity infront of rodri.

 

[Tugay One Cup]

I didn't see what he did to piss Gundogan off so much.

I like him though. Aside from being incredibly talented, he's absolutely fearless without feeling the need to prove it.

 

[MCFC1993]

Pep raving about him post match too, seems primed to take over from Gundogan in a year or so. To be honest he could probably come in this summer.

Get him in, gets to play alongside De Bruyne and coached under Pep.

 

[Turner92]

Brilliant player and only 17! Hopefully he stays a couple more years at Dortmund and continues to developed

LOL we are rich but Jude and Little Alf in one summer is too much even for us.

 

[handsofstone]

Absolute no brainer getting him in in the 2022 summer (if it's possible)

Going into the 22/23 season Gundo will be 32 with a year remaining on his contract, might be time to over him on plus Dinho will be gone (he needs to stay for 21/22 season)

So we'd have KDB (31) and Rodri (26) in addition to Bernardo who I can't see leaving as natural central midfielders

Hes got the blend of athleticism and technical ability to be a huge player for us

Especially at just 17, he was 100% nailed on to be subbed around the hour mark. Very exciting prospect.

 

[supercity88]

Was blown away by his performance last night. Physically he's something else for a 17 year old. Gave it absolutely everything and was everywhere. Completely blew up as a result in the second half but that's natural. Give him another few years and he could do that for 90 minutes. Got great touch and awareness, great pace and is an exciting player.

He is definitely someone we should look at. He could be used as a replacement for Gundogan as a more box to box player, as Gundogan has been this season.

 

[EekC]

His contract runs out in 2023 and he'll be 20, perfect time for him to move to city

 

[Rhapsody in Blue]

The scouting has been done in these two games :)

Wow how good he's been. Also how he dictates and speaks with his player. Really impressive.

One we'll keep an eye on for sure - The goal was with immense technical skill as well

 

[Mayor West]

Haha Adu's career wasn't cut short, he just wasn't good enough.

Yeah, adu was a little tongue in cheek

 

[jaiguruKun]

Can't see us ever signing him, Dortmund would want silly money. I think he will end up in Italy or Spain in a few years.

 

[PannickAtTheDisco]

Very talented and athletic. My concerns would be his lack of game management (hopefully unlike so many players he picks that up) and being over exposed too early in his career and once the injuries whether he'll lose his USP.

Nobody in Italy or Spain is spending silly money on Bellingham. We will up against the rags, dippers and chelsea in a few years.
