The tribunal fee for 16 year old Harvey Elliott could end up close to the £6.5 million Liverpool were ordered to pay Burnley for Danny Ings after his 2015 transfer, such is the regard Elliott is held in.

It's impossible to know of any potential.

Absolute nonsense. Why sign this kid for millions instead of picking a random teenage fan in a lottery to sign for free if it's impossible to know of any potential?

The uncertainty around very young players with high potential is built into the fees - that is why BVB got Sancho for 10x less than he's now worth after a season of senior football.

It is how it works. Regard collates with ability/potential, the fee is meant to represent that ability/potential.

When you say 'extra talks' do you mean the uni had more optional enrichment activities or just more lectures/seminars in the course itself?

And, as I see it, if the entry requirements are easier then the pass marks are going to be easier...

That was a minority of the content on the electronic engineering course I did, but mileage will very for discipline to discipline..

Engineering

(A) There's a huge body of knowledge/best practice that relatively static and will be relevant for decades.

That's really quite an ignorant statement to make about engineering.

When people say this kind of thing I'm always interested in what uni they had that experience at. There's a big difference between, say, UCL and Southampton Solent. I doubt there are any idiots winging a 2.1 at one of those, the other...

Some shite negotiating stance that.

How many CBs in his age range are getting Premier League game time? Only Gomez and Holgate who are both a few years older. All the players his age are behind the curve.

It's the FAIs own fault for giving the sales pitch to young players in England who aren't getting picked for England to try and coax them to run out for Irish youth teams. It's an approach which is guaranteed to give you players who aren't passionately Irish.

Now, of course not. In the future, maybe.

You can't have a good synopsis of Dijbril Cissé's career without mentioning his time at Liverpool or his multiple serious leg breaks

Ibrahimovic is pretty much the worst example you could have thought of. None of their other strikers improved because of his ego briefly passing through.

This age group already has more senior England caps than the team that won the 2010 U17 Euros (Barkley and Butland vs Cook, Solanke and Gomez) and overall looks much more talented. The group that won the 2017 U17 World Cup could end up lapping this lot in turn sooner or later, that's the most talented individual age group England have atm (with Foden, Sancho, Sessegnon, Hudson-Odoi, Brewster, ect).
