So Lookman started ahead of Izzy Brown. If it's the same bloke I'm thinking of, Isiah Brown signed for Chelsea from West Brom after making his West Brom debut at 16yo and has failed to do anything with Chelsea thus far. I believe he was on loan to a Dutch club (possibly Vitesse).0

Surely if/when he goes to a Prem club this summer, it makes most sense for all parties to be an instant loan back. He wont be starting for a Chelsea / Spurs etc yet - and would learn more with a season starting every game for us. Front three of Novak flanked by Ajose and Lookman.1

Yeah thats the fella... Have worse contempt for him than Kasey Palmer!!RugbyAddick said:So Lookman started ahead of Izzy Brown.

Thought it was. Another one who saw the pound notes. Two seasons at West Brom could see him being a Premier League starter for a bigger club -'d even capped by England. I know Dele Alli gets a bit of stick but his route to the top is an example Of how things should be done. Two seasons playing regular football for a club where he can make a name for himself (still with interested parties from the Prem). Then sign for Spurs before going back out on loan.ForeverAddickted said:

Kasey Palmer could have done the exact same as Alli or even Joe Gomez. It will be interesting to see what Lookman does as he seems to have his head screwed on.2 -
I see that Kyle Walker-Peters plays for Spurs, and is a full back. That could get confusing if he ever reaches the first team!1

Solanke was recently rumoured to be asking for £50,000 a week to stay at Chelsea.

Unbelievable isn't it? - they should tell him to piss off.iaitch said:Solanke was recently rumoured to be asking for £50,000 a week to stay at Chelsea.
The other one was iheanacho at Man City - reported to have asked for £150k a week. Did alright last season and no doubt will be a good player, but what a piss take.
Mind you Raheem Sterling is on 200k so Iheanacho should probably ask for 700k.
No wonder players don't give a shit about playing well for England.2 -
I've just spent three days up at Troon with a friend and his mate, who is coach for the FA for the North West of England. He has coached four of the England U19 side. We talked about Lookman and whilst he's not seen him play, he's heard very good things about him - but only in the last five or six months - says he's come from basically nowhere to be noticed by the England coaching set up at that age group.0

Just goes to show that we are capable of producing talented footballers. These U19s beat Spain in qualifying and have now beaten France and Holland in the past few days.
Somehow it all goes wrong when they get to senior level.2 -
Speaking of Kasey Palmer, he's just gone on loan to Huddersfield for the season.0

A lot of it at these younger levels is physicality. We tend to build big strong boys who can bully the opposition.Chris_from_Sidcup said:Just goes to show that we are capable of producing talented footballers.

Once they are all grown up and it comes down to technique we are sadly lacking.
Lookman is the opposite. He's all about technique and that's possibly why he wasn't noticed previously.

Ade had a goal chalked off for offside, apparently it was marginal if he was.0

That can't be right. Moore plays in France, Ojo is at Liverpool and there's at least 2 Everton kids there too2 -
Fry is at Middlesbrough and Woodman at NewcastleChris_from_Sidcup said:Lincsaddick said:9 of the England starting 11 are signed to London clubs .. where the money is alright

Watching the highlights on Eurosport 2 now. Clear to see he is comfortable playing with those at Liverpool, Chelsea, Spurs and Arsenal. He would be a cut above in our league but would probably get kicked to shit0

Scored one and set one up.13 -
Looking very hot property. Will probably clear a years debts when he eventually goes in January. ):0

We'd be lucky to have enough to cover NightMeire's security bill for the Coventry game.3 -

what a great ball for the second goal ... surely Ajose would thrive on that type of service ? ... IF selected1

I think Lookman and Maginnes would be our best combo.Lincsaddick said:what a great ball for the second goal ... surely Ajose would thrive on that type of service ? ... IF selected
