Have you read my two posts? I said he wouldn't get games now, but by building his reputation at the club, by building an understanding with other players by the time he comes of age at 21 (In my opinion the youngest age a professional footballer should be playing in the Premier League at) Deco, Ballack, Lampard, maybe Malouda will all be plodding on. For 2 or 3 years making league cup appearances and coming off the bench he can secure a place in one of the world's best club's top XI over time. It's a matter of instant games now; could crumble under pressure, or building his career; won't play for a few years.
