Not sure if your being serious or not? When did you see him play?

I've seen him in the last 3 development games and been very impressed as others have, we've got a couple of other good youngsters coming through as well.

Probably 50-60 times since he was 13 , was always going to be a star . All the skill in the world level headed player who deserves everything he achieves .

Only seen him play once, looked pretty good. Good signing by Jonesy if he is that good. :ayatollah:

Saw him at WBA in FA Cup last season. Looked good then. Weren't Spurs after him before he signed his pro-contract?

He might get his chance at Derby on Tuesday with Lappin suspended-depends on Taylors injury.

Jones would leave it to others and concentrate on the first team only . D John is that much quality any fool could see he was a future star as he's that good .

Saw him at WBA in FA Cup last season. Looked good then. Weren't Spurs after him before he signed his pro-contract?

He might get his chance at Derby on Tuesday with Lappin suspended-depends on Taylors injury.

You did not see him against WBA because he wass not playing You are thinking of Theo Wharton

Re: Declan John

Sat Nov 24, 2012 8:13 pm

What a good compact player, reminds me of Arron Ramsey as youngster, with the right coaching and attitude will make it to the very top,I think he could be better than Ben Davies :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

Re: Declan John

Sat Nov 24, 2012 8:13 pm

So you are saying he's better that Martin John? :lol:

No he was not my boy was in the academy with him so I always keep a close eye on the progress of the boys and hope them all well but have posted on a few occasions that if I was to pick one to make it he is the lad I would pick

Tommy Osullivan another class one to watch out for

Theo Wharton got a good chance

Gethyn Hill could be a great striker

A few have chances to make it with city if we stay in tne championship oe go up I think Theo Wharton and Tommy O'Sullivan have a chance I believe they will earn a living from football even if it's not at city . Another player I liked Josh Yowarth but he does not seem to be in the frame at tne moment . For a lot of the boys it is their attitudes that will bring them through they are all talented but some act as if they have made it already and then they go backwards

As a kid growing up watching the city i loved watching the youngsters like Jason Perry, Damon Searle and Scott Young coming through. Shame that Dave Jones and Ridsdale tried screwing up the academy.

Yowarth terrible attitude and thinks he's better than he is - that's what stopped Man Utd going for him

Did not know he had a chance of going to Man Utd That usually does not matter at that age as clubs hope to kick that out of them if they have the talent
however I have heard from within the club his attitude is questioned and that is the thing that will stop him making it The down fall of many a talented player
