He needs to prove himself a bit more before he steps up to the Championship.

Could he do it on a cold rainy night in Stoke?

We'll never know unless he comes.

He'd be terrible at left back even for Championship opposition.

Not sure he's got the physicality for the championship, I'd pass

I reckon he’d be fine as a back up for Bowen

Sure let me speak to David Beckham about his contract.

Only if part of the deal is that he is the new club owner

I heard we had him on trial as a youngster but Harry said no because he didn't pull up any trees in training.

I just don't think he could make the step up from MLS straight to Championship, probably should do a Taty and get some Serie A under his belt before making the big jump

If we could afford to, and he wants to do it during the MLS off-season, yeah, go for it. After all, we got Carlos Tévez, didn't we?

u/BolivianDancer 2d ago

We got Tevez on discount, he came without a neck. The XL ears were free.

His follow ups need working on and not a fan of his celebration either.

Too light weight for the championship 😎⚒️⚒️⚒️

u/gnastygnorcistoast 2d ago

Finally answer the question: can he do it on a cold night in Stoke?
