@Modo - what can you tell us about this lad?

Tbf there's a lot of hype surrounding that u17 team atm. Berisha is from what I've seen and heard a finisher. Finds himself in right place at the right time, a poacher like Inzaghi but more physical.
I'm not really that convinced tbh but I think its a bit early to judge him.

Ha, the difference with how @the_khl sees Danish youngsters and how @Modo sees Sweedish youngsters!

Very good Mystic, very good.

It's not Modo's fault that Swedish talents are struggling to keep up the pace with the Danish ones however. Having said that these U17 yearlings from Sweden have really impressed.

PS I do only champion players from Denmark I believe could be or are destined to be world class. Not my fault there are that many at the moment. For what it is worth I have said more or less the same about Lucas Andersen from Ajax, when we were linked with him - not convinced - I am not all crazy you know.

I like how @Modo doesn't know what to make of this kid, yet describes him as a stronger inzaghi

That right there is a reason to want him!

Haha yeah that is actually quite some appreciation. I want him too now.

And I am sure we can teach him the offside rule better than what Juve managed with Inzaghi too.

Borini is supposed to be like Inzaghi as well.

 

[Athens]

He looks like your man, Quinn, from Homeland.

With regards to his lack of understanding/interest in the offside rule?

You're spot on. The reason I'm pessimistic is because our kids are more often than not shit.
I don't think Berisha has played for Halmstad in the Swedish top division yet. But he's still a kid so there's time.

If this lad is as accurate a shooter as Quinn we should sign him up.

 

[Athens]

If this lad is as accurate a shooter as Quinn we should sign him up.

My thoughts too.

The fact of the matter is when you beat the Argentine U17s in a semi-final at the World Cup - mainly down to a hattrick from this lad - there will be hype.

"The new Zlatan" tag is inevitable especially with regards to his origins from Kosovo.

I wonder if Argentina had their best u17s on the pitch. I mean if the kids from Barca, real and other top teams were there.

 

[Modo]

And I thought they lost to Nigeria in the semi.

Quinn is eminently likeable for an assassin
