Ellis Harrison is a player I wouldn't mind us bringing in the future think hes going to be a real talent.

When will O'Sullivan get a chance for us?
He's a player who's supposed to be the real deal, won Welsh youth player of the year didn't he?
How come he's been overlooked by 2/3 managers now?

It always irks me that we can have very positive news like this (about two of our up and coming players) and hardly a response from the members. Then we get a (very poor) rumour regarding Tan selling up and it goes into melt down (the same as with the Jazz Richards debut thread) :roll:

Sven,

one of the reasons why many people think it's no big deal is that at their ages both players should be pushing for the full squad....if they had been handled better by our former manager maybe they would be!!!

Can't disagree with that :thumbup:

But it is still good for the players to get any international recognition, as it means they are in peoples thoughts :ayatollah:
