 * Daily Mail


 * That boy is pure quality, and once he settles and starts scoring goals, he won't stop.


 * I was a midfielder and I would have loved to have had what he has. He can defend, he can attack, he can score goals. You want more. He's young - another quality that I lost as well. He can still develop. When you see the development in him in the last two years, then why should he stop now?
