I'm struggling to understand where all this hype is coming from surrounding him. 15m price tag on his head apparently! Today is probably the 4th or 5th time I've seen him play and to be honest I think any club paying 15m for him are crazy. Good on the ball but anything else?
Says who? So many other English players have been tipped to be the future for England and nothing at all has come of it:
I've watched him in u21 and he is the best player on the park most of the time, a box to box midfielder with a great talent.
There's an old daily mail article floating around from 2007 showing players who would be starting for England in 2014 World Cup given their hype as youngsters. Think most of them play championship or lower....
Totally agree......IMHO he dosen't look as good as butts did when he was here......I don't see that Hughes getting goals 15m is laughable
£15m is excessive but I guess that football today. For me his big asset is his movement, he always finds space, if he's marked he drifts wide, goes deep, he drags players all over the place & makes room for others. Very rarely gives the ball away & his passing is largely forwards & sideways. Hope he stays at Derby & they go up. They've done things the right way. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
