Don't mind the ignorant goons, even this their God they keep calling and atributting every success will still agree that the boy is too young at 11, it is not fair on the boy, it is not fair on the grown ass men who has to play with him.
Imagine holding yourself back from using 100% so as not to hurt the kid

This is not right...

Trust me. He should be withdrawn from the first team Asap.

He is far too young for this sort of exposure and it will definitely prove costly to his career in the long run.

The might want to consider moving him to their youth team- preferably U15/16- until he turns 16. Give him another 4 years at least.

Letting such a kid play with grown men is grossly irresponsible. He still has a whole lot of development to do.

For those quoting me: I posted this out of genuine concern. I have been rushed through phases of my life simply because I showed glimpses of promise in certain endeavours and it ended badly for me. Wish I could tell my story here.
with the right mentorship and a conducive environment he will definitely do well. I hope he's also getting an educatio

exactly, if one of the grown men plays like grown men with him and breaks his tiny legs or injure him. it would be the end of his career if he has any.

Must every stupid decision be God picking call? You may have the talent but may not be mentaly ready to witstand certain level of exposure, how about racism, public demand, praise and scrutiny not to mention social media abuse and all that follows, like a tree with no root to the soil one storm of life and he's on the foor, then you see us looking for the next one.. Kakuta of Chelsea come into mind. The same mouth that sing Hosana Hosana will be singing crucify him. GOD pick Nigerians call for independent, how is it working out us?
Well said, reminds me of the YOUNG FEMALE JAPANESE WRESTLER who committed Suicide because of online bullying, I'm sure this boy can poison himself if he loses Penalty in a final match. The boy is not ready, we just do things anyhow in Africa... one single hard tackle can ruin his football career for life.. Abou Diaby and Eduardo Da Silva ought to be a World Class players, Injury ruined it for them... Clubs like Barca, Arsenal have loads of lads like this but they'll have to pass through stages...

If to say our blind parents allow some of us play football
We are done no where we deh now?
Your blind parents?

Imagine This generation with words.

Even the school that involves you writing on a piece of paper and thinking While they sponsor with hard earn cash. You flopped it perharps.

But you think it's physical combative and energy sapping phenomenon like sport you go do well.

If your mind fit reason like this I doubt if your body fit.

Boy is just 11...

A lot of things go into developing a footballer. He hasn't seen half of it. He might be talented and all of that but trust me, he is not ready at this age to play at the very top of the game.

Raw talent and skills aren't just enough. A whole lot of things go into creating a well-rounded player and by throwing him into the fray with the big boys week in week out, the club is denying him of that much-needed development and that will definitely be inimical to his growth.

Best thing is to give him a pre-contract and let him grow gradually. When he is at least 16, then you start easing him into the big league.

Now, the problem is, does his club have the facilities and structure to groom him?


This is from a man who has experienced first-hand what it means to be rushed through things. It sort of scarred me for life and I am just getting myself back together. It's energy-sapping for real.
You are right, i agree.

That's does not make them blind. I get your point. But words matter when dealing with elderly.

Even the football is not a sure part. There are many frustrated footballers playing in lower leagues. We love to use the few Less than 5percent top athlete to generalize. Its that sought of low resolution thinking I hate. If you never play football for Nigeria league you go think otherwise.
.
Till tomorrow, school sure pass.
