Rev Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 Gordon has been at Derby since he was nine, played for their Under 18s aged just 15, won their academy player of the year award last season and is rated as one of the most exciting 16-year-olds in the country. Almost inevitably the vultures, including Liverpool and Manchester United, are circling. The praise and attention looks all set to keep on coming in 2021. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-9099455/The-best-young-footballers-watch-2021.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Millenniumram Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 Be a shame to lose Kaide Gordon before we get to properly see anything of him - it would be like Liam Delap all over again. Guess there’s not much we can do if he wants to move to a bigger club at his age though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ravabeerbelly Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 The journey from 14-21 is horrendous and it’s not the best that survive it’s the ones that have the most desire to stay the course. no one should ever disrespect what these kids go through, what they sacrifice, how good they have to be to simply get to be a pro let alone have a careers...and how short their careers are...

Rab a dab doo Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 That is very, very good point. This is reflected in life itself. It is those people who battle continually against the odds and with adversity who eventually prevail because they do not give up. Motivation to do anything comes from within, its something which can not be taught or instilled in anyone. Some may have an easier route through help and circumstances but all of these these 'types' of people will eventually achieve their goals.

I think privilege and someone’s situation will always hugely outweigh any personal factors Hence the horrific lack of social mobility in this country Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought Stretton picked up an injury a few weeks back. I imagine Trialist has picked up a knock or is going out on loan. Only 6 months left on his original deal (don't think it's been extended), so that may have an impact on decision for him this month.
