Glasgow_Saint Posted 17 November, 2013 Share Posted 17 November, 2013 Do any of you have experience with this? Spotting a young player and tipping him for the big time, only to see it happen? Last year I tipped Ryan Gauld of Dundee United for the big time, he was only 15 when i first saw him and tipped him immediately for the top. No guarantees but man united and real madrid are now watching him. Some of you will also remember me tipping Wanyama after just a couple of Celtic games. Likewise I saw Barkley playing for Everton vs Saints 5 years ago and posted on here about his potential and star quality. Any similar stories? Or any stars in the making?

Turkish Posted 17 November, 2013 Share Posted 17 November, 2013 You may recall a few weeks back I posted a copy of the email I sent to tellrupert@saintsfc.co.uk recommending a young French midfielder called Morgan Schniderlin to the club after seeing him play whilst holidaying in France.

Toon Saint Posted 17 November, 2013 Share Posted 17 November, 2013 My ex-girlfriend's step-dad had a grandson in the Birmingham academy, so used to go watch their youngsters train a few times. Probably at least four years ago now, but Foday Nabay was about a foot taller than the other kids his age - think it was the u11's - and had some serious ability to go with the physique. Used to play up front when I watched him but now converted to a midfielder, I believe. He has also been transferred to Fulham's academy but hotly tipped for the future and has been playing for England U-16's. http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11681/8836944/ *Realise this probably wasn't meant to be a serious thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kpturner Posted 17 November, 2013 Share Posted 17 November, 2013 Your such a tit I think you mean "You're such a tit". Anyway, personally I am awestruck but GS's fantastic talent spotting skills - and modesty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandwichsaint Posted 17 November, 2013 Share Posted 17 November, 2013 I spotted a Mr A. Lallana come off the bench at the Hawthorns for a 15 minute cameo (not sure if it was his debut?) and score a fantastic goal, mental celebrations which ended with me putting my foot through the back of the seat in front, I've still got the scar on my shin. I told anybody that would listen he was going to be the real deal based on that 15 minutes. Does this count? I also fore-saw that a young Nathan Dyer looked like a future Prem player. Got lots wrong too, I used to think Tandanari Lee was decent and a part of me still wonders what we could have made of Antonio ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tokyo-Saint Posted 17 November, 2013 Share Posted 17 November, 2013 The term is flushed Turks. Welcome everyone. I take 100% credit for wade Elliot's success and should probably be a hero in Burnley. Wade was about to quit football and go to 'camp America' instead. I drunkenly spoke with him in ikon and diva and told him he had too Mich talent to be a camp American. After a while he saw sense, bought me and drink and we both agreed I was the greatest. The rest is history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buctootim Posted 18 November, 2013 Share Posted 18 November, 2013 Saw Nathan Dyer in the championship and confidently predicted he was too small and lightweight, ran into too many dead ends and and had too bad an attitude to make it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bearsy Posted 19 November, 2013 Share Posted 19 November, 2013 eww. I spose the main thing I really like is symmetry, I care more bout that than even the size. You really cannot tell when birds is bra how much of a discordance you are going to find in comparative size and shape between left boob and right boob. It always comes as a bit of a surprise to me, I spose cos the fake boobs you see in tv+porns is always so perfectly symmetrical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
