John Lundstram

Highly rated midfielder playing for the U17 england side. Just signed pro with us.

Here's the link: http://www.fifa.com/u17worldcup/video/live/index.html

he's number 4

Can't watch that anyway since I'm in the wrong territory.

Here's what the OS says about him

Can't say I'm that impressed right now, but we all know an england game is no place to judge a player. Has done some things well, but cocked up the basics a few times against a pretty average, but well organised Canada side.

They better beat Canada, eh?

Seems they've rested Hallam Hope, our young striker who looks like he might be proper boss. And we're currently relying on a load of liverpool fancy dans. Although there's a lad from Brum who looks like he might be a good player, and one or two others.

Not that an england game is the place to judge a player, but in summary Lundstram looked a bit of a mixed bag. He played as a defensive midfielder and wasn't afraid to get stuck in, regardless of whether or not he won the ball (and a fair few times he didn't). His passing ranged from good to sloppy but his positioning was largely pretty good and he made a brilliant block tackle in his own box to stop a shot on goal. All in all decent, but I wouldn't expect to see him anywhere near the first team for another few years.

So how Vic gets picked is still a mystery then mate?
