This has been going round for quite a while now, he's a very talented 17 year old in the first team for Crewe. Only seen one game of him which was the other night in the play offs and he did impress me, took his goal well to.

Only real solid link I could find, but just seen on twitter now that the race to sign him is pretty much between us and Chelsea so we should win this! Would be another top youngster to have at our club.

The sad thing is he might be the only player we buy in the summer. :lol:

Didn't get the chance to obvserve him yet, heard great things about him though.
FYI, posting rumours with The Sun as source don't exactly make it sound credible, just saying. ;)

Not really going to get many sites flowing with info over a 17 year old until he's officially signed.

but anyway, this is probably the most credible source I can find:

City's watched him this year, pretty sure I heard Man Utd, Everton and Spurs have as well.

He's a fantastic player.

Sounds a good one. Get him signed.

I'm going to go out on a limb and guess somewhere in an advanced midfield position, playing off the striker.

:lol:

Haven't bothered with the links... wish people would just quote and post the article!

Also, far too drunk to be reading entire articles. A couple of sentences in and I'm thinking "what the f**k is this about again!?!"

Yes. He can cover the whole of midfield if needed though.
