Was one of the best I heard, everyone is comparing him to Deco which is never a bad thing. Who knows he might be good enough to pull some strings this season for us! ( Doubt it but you never know).
I remember watching him and thinking he was a great youngster - looked head and shoulders above the rest.
If he is anything like Deco he could be a steal, but was N'gog the same? I hope he turns out better and that we have a player with real quality and ingenuity.
Ya, saw him too, but his was a trial and he is hoping to get picked up. not sure if that is a good thing or bad thing or the level he is at. 20 right?
well... 1. n'gog was very convienently sold by PSG. they were delighted. 2. the moment i saw n'gog play i could see he had nothing about him in terms of drive. 3. lets give this kid the chance in reserve level etc to show us something. Sterling was day one you saw him you could see the player he would be... suso you could see had all the skils but no position to play in so IMO this si why sterling will play first team before suso... it could be upon the viewing in the nextgen alone this kid could be i nthere too.
mito, more or less just not jumping to conclusion that he is great and the high high level of talent as I just haven't seen him play at all and N'gog came with u-20 caps and the like as well, only comparison really. You can barely find pictures of the kid or any information!
he really does have barely any information out there! Especially being the new Deco and all, there is not much to go off or try to research.
Yeah I know ive been looking myself the best thing I could find was a picture of him on google images I was watching that press pass (you might know it) on ESPN a while back and they were saying that the top European club's are starting to be very secretive about their top young player's because of all the prem club's sniffing around them, not sure if it's true but it would make sense, a lot of youngster's from European club's are being poached for next to nothing by prem team's and I heard Platini moaning about it a few months ago.
Ya probably this..... so what does platini do to hide the star players? Creates a CL style competition for the prem teams to poach from
It's probably down to exposure of the Portuguese league too. From what I gather, Carlos Teixeira would be the equivalent of a Suso or Sterling to us, and it's only because of our club's exposure that there is info on them besides the club site.
The Echo posted a video of him against us along with their take on the proposed transfer. http://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/live...r-joao-carlos-teixeira-video-100252-30149993/
His agent is also a representative of the Arcturus Confederation, the Rigellan Federation and the Ambassador from Mars... Clearly off his tits...
http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/en/joao-carlos/profil/spieler_132214.html Best I can do I'm afraid. 13 appearances for the Portuguese U17 squad, but curiously, and slightly worryingly, none for U19 or seniors... That said, the website does say that he did appear as a 90th minute sub for the U19 squad against France U19. Looks like the fee was £880,000 - again according to the website...
Kenny has confirmed that he expects it to be a quite window for us, but a busy one for the Academy which would suggest a few younger players coming in this month. Not really what we need right now but I guess building for the future. I hope he's just playing it down as I think everyone agrees we need a new striker.
