Stating the obvious but this kid is going places. Better than Southampton's highly overrated English Luke Shaw surely! Things look like they're on the up. Ole clearly has a mindset that his team are going to be young and attacking and magnus wolff eikrem fits both. This kid is talent :thumbup: :ayatollah:

What's it like being turned down by Everton's 4th choice centre back? :oops:

Re: DECLAN JOHN

He is not better than Shaw. John is good but Shaw is going to be world class.

Another of your bullshit ITK claims

"Ravel will sign for Cardiff"

"Sven new manager"

need i go on?? Declan will go nowhere unless a BIG team comes in for him, and I'm still not sure he'd leave then. :roll:

Re: DECLAN JOHN

BIG STATEMENT but he reminds me of a young Gareth bale .

Started as a forward before being settled back at left back .
Has fantastic pace
Crosses the ball really well
Takes people on for fun by knocking it past them and out sprinting rather than tricks
Not scared to shoot from anywhere

I can see young Declan moving up the pitch as Gareth bale did in a year or so when more experienced and leaving the left back slot to become a pacey forward player

We will do well to keep him he is destined for the top IMO :ayatollah:

Gareth bale started up front/wings in the youth teams
At Southampton he was asked to play at full back and excelled ,he then slowly made his way back forward and is now one of the worlds best attacking players .

Declan John started as a striker in the youth teams before being tried at left back and he has excelled ,his play and control will allow him to move forward in the future and be a top class winger / attacker

Very similar players at this age
