So where do we need upgrades to compete with BM/Madrid etc?

Good Lord. A 16 year old striker, no doubt good for his age but is probably only standing out because his peers haven’t caught up yet in the maturity stakes.
He’d almost certainly disappear playing with the adults..
They said similar about Patino being a potential worldy, best academy midfielder blah blah.. but he’s now on the bench every game at Swansea.

25 goals in 5 games for the U18's.....didn't seem to worry Liverpool with Fowler and Owen, plus we bought Walcott at 17? Good enough, old enough. Plus he's a beast!

Certainly give him a shot in the U21's
