jamboinglasgow Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 I remember hearing Tim Vickery, the journalist who covers South American football, talk about how he learnt after covering many U17 and U20 international competitions, then if you want to get a better idea of who will make it you dont pay too much attention to under 17. He told how there are so many players who stand out so much at aged 16 then too often others catch up with them or overtake them in the next few years. So does explain why so many tagged as wonderkids below the age of 17 just dont reach their potential. At the moment I am not holding my breath that this transfer will happen as there has only been one person who has said it (and thats not a dig against the OP as I am sure he has been told this by someone else he believes, just I always look for collaboration of info to confirm.) I always want the best talent at the academy. One thing I did find was that I always thought FIFA rules on Under 18 transfers were that player either had to move to the new country because of his parents moving for non-football reasons or that the new club is a maximum of 50 miles away from his home (so say Belgium 15 year old could sign for Feyenoord.) But found out a player aged 16 or 17 can move to another country in the EU/EEA provided the club he moves to provides certain things for the players well being and development off and on the pitch.)

They all had full beards and their kids on the sidelines. Never U19. I was at that game, massive queues to get in. It was an under 16 tourney, remember a gasp in the crowd when the Saudis walked out. Some of them looked reasonable, but there were 5-6 that looked mid 20,s at best. Was the nearest thing to a genuine men v boys I have seen. The Scots lads actually did pretty well but just got out-muscled. A number of questions asked at the time, and some serious doubts about birth certificates.
