Careful Dev, you're taken now

So if anybody had the chance to see our games throughout the Champions Youth Cup, how would you rate him in terms of flair, agility, finishing and what not ???

really inter was horrible, milan and juve got along fine, very professional with each other, but even rampulla openly admitted it, milan and juve are okay but with inter... he shook his head lol. i hate their lot.

btw im assuming the 'ancelotti' in the cyc team is carlo's son?

i wouldnt say so much of flair, but i think is finishing is good hes one of those annoying strikers that causes havoc and penetrates the defence. scored some nice goals in the tournament too

He is not a flair player, he is a diect players with a nose for the goal. as for this tournament his finishing was tops, he nailed almost anything. He makes good runs.

So you're suggesting he's more of an Inzaghi kind of player than an Henry kind ??

I would say he's closer to Henry (who is usually quite direct), but he isn't the type that seems to get on the ball and run at defenders, his goals are often more poacher like.

When I see him run on the field I think about Jose Mari, but clearly he is more deadly than the Spaniard. It should be noted that he was used occasionally on the wing, so any comparisons to Inzaghi feels wrong quickly Also, I wouldn't compare him with Inzaghi who is a player who moves great in the penalty area and stands on the right places at the right times. Pierre is more of a player who comes from behind to beat the offside trap and seems to be more or a player with just good composure than good positioning.

So, do you guys reckon he can overcome his brother Willy and evetually get the opportunity to play for the senior side ??

Isn't Willy already in the senior team?

What I meant was more like "Can he turn out to be better than Willy?" but it's my fault, as the question seemed really vague...
Plus, Willy sees action aboput once a month with the senior side, so that just about doesn't count...

Well he's in the squad for the match tonight...

From most accounts that seems very likely as he already shown more than his older brother.

He is in the squad traveling to Kiev today.... I really hope he gets to play !!!
