He's a typical ' football fairy ' - over paid, over here, over rated & self obsessed.
He isn't fit to lace the boots of hard working industrious players such as our Asa or even Saikou in fact every one of our squad that finished up as champions.
Players such as this need bombing out of the game & talented English ( or British if you like ) youngsters given a chance to shine, we've proved we have the talent by winning world cups with the juniors, you don't win these competitions if your crap, and more than likely most of these lads will end up having a pro career in the lower echelons of the EFL.
It's the 'English' way, it seems, why are top flight clubs frightened to persevere with young local talent ?
The likes of Kane, Trippier, Foden, Pickford are proven success stories at the top level & still the clubs are willing to waste good money on the next foreign superstar, who invariably flop !!, instead of using the money wisely in producing their own ' next superstars '.
You would've thought they'd cottonseed on to it by now, wouldn't you ?
