How special does this kid look

[hector]

Mrs H and the doctors all tell me that I am speshul too.....

[Smudge3920]

... he's only 18 holy sh********t... he will fit right in, has major pace, all over the park..imagine Kalvin feeding him and Pablo when he is on... and can he take it there was some major tackles taking him out there, no diving love it ... he will get us a pile of free kicks just outside the box... get working on the set pieces.... In answer to your question '64... He looks very very very special ...

[The Subhuman]

A much better Ryan Kent? Looks from the above clips he could play the ten as well

His mouth closed is a good start, plus an intelligent steady gaze.

Hopefully he'll be as unfazed as he looks.

Our U23’s squad is beginning to bulge with talent and Summerville looks a serious talent.

Some comments I saw from Feyenoord supporters reacting on Twitter were disappointed to see him go but doubted his ability to play at senior level as he is potentially too small and light yet. Bielsa’s pals in the staff canteen need to get to work on him.

[danhirons]

grot, ekuban, cibicki all looked great in the videos....let's see in reality if he's any good

another under 23 player. we need senior players to survive our first year.

A few seasoned heads can be useful but to say younger players can't compete is just plain false. Last season alone some of the best players for their respective teams were U23s, players like Alexander-Arnold, Mount, Pulisic, Tomori, Rashford, Abraham and Rice consistently showed up more experienced players and this is just off the top of my head.

Sorry but talent supersedes experience. Experience only means you've been doing something for longer, not that you're better at it.

[Chilli D]

If you're good enough you're old enough.
Mason Greenwood is proof of that.
However, as we already have Costa and Poveda I'm not sure if we'll see him in the first team this season.

[Scoobychief]

yeah totally agree if youre good enough doesn't matter what age you play 1st team, the likes you mentioned arnold haaland etc when young 17 18 and they definately are good enough, but i would imagine that the player in question would be for the under 23 and not ast team. thats why i said we need senior 1st team players.

Ah fair dos, I misinterpreted, sorry.

[Cjay]

Will join up with the u23s

Shame that.

But welcome Crysencio

Shame you didnt sign this time last week, probably be in the squad tonight.

[1964white]

Welcome Crysencio

Hope he is as good he looks on the YouTube clips

Aren't McKinstry and McCarron wingers as well?

I think Sumerville is better. Plus I saw McKinstry on Monday and he was playing much more central. Summerville definitely looks like he'll be the best winger outside of our first team squad

[Chilli D]

Fair enough. I have no idea how good either McKinstry or McCarron are as I haven't seen them play but for some reason I thought they were both wingers.
I understand McKinstry in particular looks really promising.

[weasel]

I think Bielsa is trying to convert McKinstry into a ball carrying no.10 in the Saiz mould. Think that is what he would have done with Dan James too and he also tinkered with Jack Clarke in that role last summer but was presumably not impressed.
