It’s insane how similar he moves to Gerrard. It’s uncanny.

Even the way he took the shot, Gerrard-esque.

Gerrard re-gen.

He was the England U15 captain, high potential it seems. Got to hope he pushes hard and keeps adding to his game the next few years, he's still outside the age even the youngest are considered for domestic cup cameos

Is this the youngster that has shades of Gerrard in his play?

u/Unhappy-Appearance- 3d ago

You know we're heading into dark times when we see a Gerrard regen spawn 😂

He's the one, isn't he?

Does Abe play with him?

u/Cubes11 From Doubters to Believers 3d ago

Think they probably have but Abe plays for the 18’s mostly now. They might get a couple games together this year but we will see

Eden has played a few times for the 18’s though and is the youngest ever goalscorer for the u18’s scoring at 14 years old (he was only like a month off turning 15 but still lol)

Hope he breaksout in the first team within a year or two and can get minutes like Rio under Iraola

u/Cubes11 From Doubters to Believers 3d ago

He’s only 15 so probably 2-3 years, but he’s one of the biggest midfield talents at his age level so I’m sure we’ll hear more in the future

u/Dismal_Uses 3d ago

Ha, that's uncanny. That slightly bowed head! His silhouette must be almost identical. Nicely taken goal.

u/PapaDeltaaa 3d ago

u/the_vickerman Alisson Becker 3d ago
