Yup. I was 6'4" at 17, I'm still 6'4" now.At 15 my nephew was 6'2'' and wore size 15 shoes, he's now 30, his feet are the same size and he's only a couple of inches taller.
Maybe this guy has just done most of his growing already.
Did your mum make you spend the holidays standing in a pot of Baby Bio...?I grew about 6 inches over the summer when I was 16, went back to school and I was suddenly a head taller than my classmates....really freaked them out...
LOL, what's this bollocks? The Illuminati are in charge of football?Golden Boots Society?
Love that idea but there is no way Spurs could ever be in it if you look at our recent history LOL
Irony of the illuminati is that they are a conspiracy theory invented to make people believe in conspiraciesLOL, what's this bollocks? The Illuminati are in charge of football?
It's a family thing, happened to my dad at the same age...Did your mum make you spend the holidays standing in a pot of Baby Bio...?
We can sell him to the NBAWhich is a bit of a concern. If he's 6'4" at 16, what happens if he grows to 6'8" by the time he's 18-19? There have been tall football players, but this tall? And for a defender? How quick can a 6'8" CB be?
We can sell him to the NBA
If this Croatian kid grows a DM two, I do. I'm sure the new lane can host a NBA game or two also
You're suggesting a business arrangement of some kind with the NBA???
Thought Ansu Fati looked good for Brighton last night. Can see him having a decent season for them.

We have Hugo as a very disposable non-HG.linked again today to 'both footed' left winger jota
he is ineligible to play as he's the 9th overseas player in a squad that's allowed 8 max. epic balls up lol
we have 17 max overseas in our squad so i can't see how this would work? unless: cancelling a contract (ivan) and bringing him in that way?

Big 10 out of ten for this year's buys.
You'd have thought that those who marked this window at less than say 5/10 would have the grace to go back to adjust their vote (as the thread allows) after seeing Vicario, Van de Ven and Maddison have top class games for us yesterday - and see Johnson was selected to start one of the most difficult games he's likely to get in PL anywhere whilst Solomon is a very credible squad player (and I suspect we will find better than Moura ?). Plus see we have brought in highly rated youngsters Phillips and Veliz who's effects we will only see in a year or two.
I voted 7/10 as the window closed and think I got things about right. But could mark higher after yesterday's performances
And very happy to see the performances in the 6 PL games so far, and seeing the team gradually gell.
