Generational talent?
Phenomenal.

Apart from the assist, I thought he had a bit of an off day today and Rodon needed to do a lot of mopping up for him.
However must not forget he is only 17 and he is being played out of position. Also he has played nearly every game.

I didn't realise that he still isn't allowed to use the same changing room as the rest of the team until the other day, thought it was only when he was under 16 (the Arsenal game).
Even Mateo Joseph is changing with the big boys.

He's going to be a real star of the game in the none-too-distant future. Given the family connection, I'm sure he's Leeds to the bone. If we go up, I think he'll stick with us. If we don't, and Liverpool or Arsenal come calling, you really couldn't blame the lad for strutting his stuff in a top-notch Prem club.

At 17, nothing looks too much for him. What I mean is,
Farke has asked a 17 year old to hold the fort at RB
after looking brilliant alongside Ampadu, and he just
goes out and does it. Plays beyond his years. I'm at
a loss for words for him every time I see him play.
What a future.

It's unbelievable to see his class, and to know he is only 17.
What a talent. What a player. His father, and grand father, and add to that Eddie, well... that is what genes are all about

Thought same, thought both our full backs had a torrid time, but just goes to show how one flash of inspiration can change a game and what he's capable of.

I’d like to see him in his ‘natural’ position … maybe a bit daft to put it that way as he’s only 17, but I think he needs to decide/discover/agree which position he’s going to play in his career and stick to it.

He stated he would aspire to be a box to box midfielder which fits in with LIW's view of a young Gerard.

has everything to make it, but needs to be coached the right way. kids need to know what it means to be the best, talent is not enough, has to be ruthless, and angus (who is god to me) willing stays injury free. i had trails a 2 teams, i had skill / guile but i did not have enough power strength brutal passion to make any more than the youth teams. took up athletics and again had talent but not the full on commitment to go to the top. was in the same welsh youth team as hayden wood, simon taylor & colin jackson. had a crack with them all, all was so talented
but colin had this special drive. haydon & simon were running 10.6 as 16 years olds but did not have what colin had. it amazed me he was such a great kid, time for everyone................history speaks for itself. archie has it all & needs he needs to make his future work for him
