    Re: Where's that kid gone?

    Andreas Pereira: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PGtQfmeh-jI Good video of him playing in a European Tournament u16's at the beginning of 2012. Looks immensely talented,tall,strong with great shooting and dribbling but he's a bigger ball hogger than Ronny. Great potential,will be interesting how he progresses. Van Velzen has the potential to be a future World Class player. Hard to find wingers that are so tall,strong and fast, that also can dribble shoot and cross. Kids got the full package. Unfortunately, I doubt he has the hunger/work ethic to fulfill his talent. I personally don't think he's going to make it but I hope he proves me wrong. In my opinion,players to watch out for in the academy this year: Pereira, Mats Daehli and James Wilson.

    Andreas Periera? Well he has been featuring with U18's so far, so another season with the academy and then see how he is doing and promote him.
    What about that kid we signed from $hity last season?
    He's had a few apps with the reserves, needs a full season under his belt really.

    never die:
    Anyone know what's going on with that 17 year old kid we supposedly signed from the dutch league last year?.. Think it was P.S.V but i wouldn't be all sure... His name escapes me but i do remember there being a fair bit of hype surrounding him
    Nah, ur on about Andreas Pereira not Van Valzen. He's only just turned 16 so will be in the under 18's next season....he is pure class, watch out for him!
    Is he signed up? Couldn't find him in the player profiles, Academy or otherwise....

    EDIT: Did find this though: http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story/_/id/981236/belgian-teenager-andreas-pereira-confirms-man-utd-move?cc=5901

    Nice little tidbit....should be required reading for the Negative Nellys who say our scouting and youth setup is sh1te.

    i found this on the net .... it could b who u mean "Several weeks ago, rumours surfaced on internet boards that Manchester United were on the verge of signing Dutch winger Gyliano van Velzen."
    We signed him. Hes like an untalented version of Pogba, who plays on the wing,
    City bought the title
    City have ruined football with the money
    City are the devil

    We need to buy Falcao Lucas and Modric though
