It does seem an unreasonably high bar though to set? Jude is looking like a generational player - there's going to be a handful on the planet better than him?
Also, I’d be a little worried about the amount of football Jude has played at such a young age. He is IMO just as likely to have a career arch like Wilshere, Owen, or Dele, then he is Ronaldo, Zanetti. Maldidni
All through the youth age groups the general consensus was that Jobe was the more talented player or certainly the player with more ability at their respective age groupls. There have been question marks over his drive/desire/will to get to the very top which Jude has in abundance. I'm not saying he doesn't have the right mentality just that this is where Jude really stood out. He wants to be the very best and nothing is going top stop him so to speak.
Like the old saying goes 10% ability 90% mentality.
I’ve seen him play a lot over the years, same age as my lad, didn’t stand out in any match at any year group to be honest, I always felt there were much better players out on the pitch - but then again, I’m no scout and don’t know how he’ll develop.
what I can say though, is this kid has it all because of his brother.
Sponsorship, clubs looking at him etc and that’s purely because of how good his brother is, difference is, this one walks around like he’s the man with the attitude to boot!
