Yeah i agree, i think Benfica is a good move for him. Them and Porto survive by developing young talented players and then selling them on to richer clubs. If he's as good as the reports say he is, and he's one of the most talented players of his age in the country, then there's no reason to think that he won't do well there.cafcfan1990 said:
In all fairness don't think Benfica is a bad move for him.NapaAddick said:
And a lifetime as a backup who will probably never start a game, like most kids. Top clubs rarely promote from within. A lot less than lesser clubs.killerandflash said:
I doubt that was a consideration, compared to the money they were offering . And glamour/lifestyle etcNapaAddick said:I am SURE one reason he left is because of the chaos of our ownership situation. What rational kid would want to stay here when you cannot even drink bottled water?
Agree with the general rule but Benfica and Chelsea are two entirely different moves. I don't blame him one bit
But I agree that picking up players for nothing or next to nothing is completely unfair on the club who develop the player and needs to change. But I doubt it will.3 -

Cheers Roly.
At least that bastad gets no compensation fee or sell on as it’s an international transfer1 -
Don’t know why but I’ve a feeling we’ll be talking about this one for years to come8

Perhaps he was won over by the promise of a Portugese breakfast.3

100% which is a real shame but such is the nature of the game.AFKABartram said:Don’t know why but I’ve a feeling we’ll be talking about this one for years to come

400k up front, but only due to Fergies dignity. Was soon playing for Morcombe.usetobunkin said:Sean McGinty went through the Academy, "transfers to Man U" we got just over a 1mil if i remember rightly. Ends up being the last player shown the door by Ferguson. Leaving for a "Bigger" club doesn't always work out for the lad. Now playing for Partick Thistle i think.

I think Rolly will get a fee for him. I heard £2.5M+. Some thing about a committee that determines the value of a youth player?1

Weir is the son of ex-Everton and Rangers defender David Weir, and despite being captain of Scotland under 16s and 17s, and obviously his Dad being Scottish, then decided to play for England.1

Believe we may have got a few hundred thousand for Sarmiento.
Not that we would have got it, but Roland just using it to pay some bills.1 -
Steve Avory said the player wanted to stay but his parents pushed the move through.1

Notice on one page that he was originally born in MadridHenry Irving said:Steve Avory said the player wanted to stay but his parents pushed the move through.
Nothing to do with them wanting to return back to Iberia?0 -

His Dad moaning about lack of opportunities at Benfica maybe should have left him at Charlton, he would have played 40-100 games for us by now and be getting bought by a PL team to go straight into a squad if he is as good as the hype suggested. I wonder if it will be Palace..?6 -
Shame we lost him, wonder if he'd have been close to our First Team by now0

Yes reckon he would've got a few appearances off the bench at the very least.ForeverAddickted said:Shame we lost him, wonder if he'd have been close to our First Team by now
Hope he doesn't land at Palace, that would be a kick in the teeth.1 -
That's what you get when you walk out on us.0
-
I know he was heavily linked to Man City in the past , wonder if they've seen a chance to nab him for nothing?1
-
I think Bowyer would have given him a few run outs at Centre Back for sure.ForeverAddickted said:Shame we lost him, wonder if he'd have been close to our First Team by now15 -
Don't like the way his old man keeps saying "we". It's the sons career, not his!6

Dad probably pushed and backed him all the way, like fathers do.king addick said:Don't like the way his old man keeps saying "we". It's the sons career, not his!
Many players would never have made the grade without their parents' support.

I saw this young man play for the development squad at Eastbourne 3 seasons ago, what a footballer.2

It'll be interesting if we re-open the door to him.
I don't think we will, but it would be interesting.0 -
You don't know that. It's only your own opinion based on ....... not actually knowing anything about the actual situation.king addick said:
