Agree. Saw him play on Cwm Level Park when he was around 11 or 12.
I was convinced he was going to be the next Georgie Best. | |

A lot of very good potential players had the natural skill "trained out of them" under the old academy system.
Fitting square pegs in round holes never works.
It then takes them years to build back the confidence to do what comes naturally. | | | |

It seems he has fallen out of love with football. Such a shame. | |

Didn't realise Gogic was a Czech international these days! Good on him.
Always thought Copp was going to be the next big thing here but just didn't work out for him, really is a shame. |  | | |

He made his debut against the Czech Republic. For Cyprus. | |

Henry Jones stands out as a real question mark, serious talent. There’s more to come in this series. | |

Used to know his uncle through work, not seen him in years. He seemed to think Laudrup really rated Tancock. Though his uncle was an absolute nutcase to be fair so not sure how true it was.
Always a shame to see the youngsters fall out of professional football, it's a brutal industry. | | | |

Really did think he'd go further than he has.
Owain Jones as well. He's started coaching now alongside a playing career, done some badges. | | | |

He looked a smashing player a few years back. | |
