Youri Tielmans

[IliyaKrostin]

One of the biggest talents in the current football. Can't see him staying at Anderlecht for a long time.

Assists, goals, good football understanding, smart player.

(sorry if there's a thread on him, didn't find any)

I always buy him on Fifa with Batshuayi and develop them to 90+ player, which means they must be good! ()

Anyway, he's 19 years old, don't reckon he'll get much game time and will probably be sent on loan.

The boy is going to grow to be absolutely world class. I think we need to get in early before the competition goes through the roof (if it hasn't already), even if it means an agreement to keep him there for a couple of years yet. 

[IliyaKrostin]

Has signed for Monaco. Did the right decision for him, maybe in the next 5 years we might chase him.

[Fruity66]

100% the right choice especially with culture at Monaco currently... they cant put a foot wrong with breeding and nurturing youngsters out there... plus Monaco ain't a bad players for a 19/20 French speaking young man to hang out

Well if you was referring to buying players from the Belgium league we scouted and bought Courtois, Lukaku and De Bruyne from there. They've all turned out alright. 

If you was referring to buying from France, take your pick from Cech, Dave, Drogba, Essien, Papy.

Definitely meant the Belgian league.. Only the top 5 leagues matter. 

Courtois, Lukaku and De Bruyne all started off in the belgian league yes, but they played the majority of their time in one of the top 5 leagues

Suarez and Ibra came from the Dutch league, Neymar came from the sh*tty Brazilian league, Ronaldo came from Sporting, all players have to start somewhere. Tielemans is 20, so in his massive 3 year professional career he's played in Belgium. Stupid argument to write off a 20 year old player because he's been playing in a lower league.

Of course there are occassionally exceptions, but Im talking about players that will make it straight to our first team. If we buy a young player from a team outside the top 5 leagues, the chances of him making our first team is extremely unlikely, and will most likely go out on loan. Im just saying we should stray away from that kind of business now and go for players who are likely to come straight into the first team

Yes because getting a player who will be world class in 2-3 years time is an AWFUL idea. Dont need it. Rather we went for a proven superstar from one of the top leagues like when we bought Sheva and Torres

There's no guarantee of that. We have bought way too many youngsters in the past who just haven't lived upto the hype and end up being dead weight. For every good young player we buy, we buy 3 or 4 ones that will never make it.

And most of them we end up making a profit on.

Making a tiny little profit on players when we're a big club is almost pointless, its just not worth all the effort
