Jobe Bellingham - Signed


Yes I did think that. One thing that stood out was his touches in the attacking third are higher than our boys. He may well play higher up, and he's more of a Pritchard type, but hopefully that means he has more ability to get into the box to support the striker.

I see Bellingham as a Pritchard replacement over anyone in the centre of the park. Comparisons to Michut don't seem right to me as I think they are different players, playing in different roles.

Not sure where this Pritchard should leave thing comes from mind, important he stays
 
I doubt anyone would be paying £3m for him at this stage of his career if not for who his brother is and how similar he looks to him.

However, for the same reasons, if he's even half decent the hype will be off the scale and he'll be worth a fortune!
We are not paying 3m quid because of who his brother is mind. Our coaching recruitment team clearly know him really well and he is really highly, he does not just get picked/captain England at youth levels because his brother is good or play first team football at his age. When this rumour was kicking about last year I thought there was no chance.
