my mate was his PE teacher a couple of years ago. He says he was built like a brick shit house when he was 15 and so scored against weaker defenders in the youth set up, but he's got a touch like a trainee rapist and won't make it in the top flight unless he concentrates on skills, skills, skills. He's no Roon-kee that's for sure....
If he thinks that he's ready for regular first team football at 16-17 and doesn't see that 18-21 year old players are the backbone of Pearson's plans if they are good enough then he's a f*cking idiot.
A, it could be hime trying to get a slightly better professional contract, in a bad way.
B, he could not be rated by the Pearson camp.
Either way i don't care. Tony Thorpe had one 30 goal season and then did nothing for the rest of his career. Kitson - similar. if he doesn't want to earn it for us, he'll go the same way as them.
