Romeo Lavia

[Holcombe bloo]

Just that Camavinga have 55 league matches at age of 18

Yeah much easier in french league though.

Many talents come out from Ligue 1 becouse they get much game time and develops in a good direction. Must belive in our talents, cant get a new Abdul Razak, Bruno Zuculini etc.

This kid's a real player

If Lavia stayed at Anderlecht, he would have got that kind of numbers in the Jupiler Pro League.

Class every time I have watched him.

This lad was extremely highly rated when we signed him wasn't he. Any one to that's seen him play regularly think he'll be taken into consideration as a fernandinho replacement?

There's a mere 3 pages in this thread, that should answer your question.

Given his current development,yes,eventually.....whether that is in 6/12/18/24 months,i wouldnt like to guess.

He will be on the preseason tour and promoted to training with the first team next season i suspect,which will tell us much more.

Indeed. He reads the game superbly and has excellent positional sense so often doesn't seem to need the athleticism he has. He is also able to receive in tight situations and pass accurately. This is at U23 level though and the step up is large. I hope he'll be added to the squad because his potential looks vast.

Must be a geo location thing presuming you are in Toronto. If you have a VPN enabled browser such as Epic browser, change your location to the UK, that should work.

Edit: there's actually not much there at all.

Cheers. I think I'll just wait until he's get spit roasted on the matchday thread. : )

Anyone who knows what the plans are next season with Lavia?

Another year with the U23's? Or will they send him on loan?

What do you guys think?

I think he could be in line for a move to NAC Breda or something, he has only been with us a short time though but its been a great start for him.

u23s, I think. He's too good to be loaned out. Like Foden, he will benefit the most by staying at City and learning everyday from the best.

Yep, he was fast tracked from the U18s at the start of the season to the U23s at the start of this calendar year. Keep him in the U23s plus training sessions with the 1st team and maybe the odd appearance in the domestic cups and CL dead rubbers. I can see us playing more kids in the LC next season after winning 4 on the trot.
