I've seen him a few times this season including last week when he tore through the Celtic defence a few times (scored once and also impressed Chelsea in a friendly last year). I always thought he was overated too but if he continues to improve I'd reckon he'll be a decent player when he leaves for Europe next year. Better off if he didn't go to a big team though and he should have stuck with Ghana instead of playing for the US.

That should be a prerequisite for ANY footballer. Celtic defence is what's known as a a paradox nowadays.

17 "officially" but most people reckon he's actually 19 or 20, his date of birth cant be proven or something strange like that

didn't a whole championship winning team get kicked out because one player was older than he said he was? not sure was it soccer though, might have been baseball, but, if that is the way they do things over there then thats pure bollox on the other lads

Little league world series a few years back. The Bronx team I think, had a 14 year old pitcher destroying the opposition, age limit is 12 afaik
