Raheem has been Englands best player so far.
Just hit a delightful cross in to the box. Hope hit's the post.
Edit just have to add that I'm very impressed with Raheem's precision.

Another pin point ball in after a burst down the flank.

Re: Raheem vs Rwanda live!
It's proving very hard not to get excited about this lad . His dribbling is a joy to watch , the ball just sticks to his feet . But he's got so much more to his game , he can cross , pass and his awareness of what's going on is first class.
Nice goal although slightly dodgy keeping , well maybe i am being harsh , he probably just a little smaller than an adult keeper so couldn't reach it .
And Smith does look like a great prospect too , loves to bomb forward and can defend too.

Raheem and Sterling is Doc Macs legacy for scm.
Lets not sign the mata. Lets give one of these lads a shot.

Exactly what i was about to say.... I watched him a few times for the under 18's last season and he is so many classes above what he's playing against. My only concern would be a crunching tackle from a big prem defender. They'd kill him.
So is he ready or not?

I say not. Like I've said before he needs a year or two of reserve football and considering that we're playing in the U19 CL he'll get some much needed experience against other top rated youth players.
Mostly I think he needs another year to get more meat on his bones.
He's only 16, his time will come. No need to rush him.
