Hmm....it's prudent to tie down any young talent to a long-term contract but he's really not kicked on as much as everyone had hoped. Still a fantastic talent but needs to sort his head out and he's facing some real competition from the likes of Bamford, Brown and Solanke up top, and Boga and the like when he's used deeper.

He's stalled. Solanke looks more promising this season.

And Bamford (if he still counts as a prospect)

At least we can get some money for him when he actually turns out good. Our problem has often been that we don't get enough for Youth players who have enjoye a genuine education here, like Borini or Cork just because they do not sign long term contracts. Even if they are not worldbeaters they should be worth a few millons to finance the money put into them by the club.

Well, signed a new contract and certainly showing he is deserving of that tonight. Scored a brace in the U21 game against Wolves and we won 2-1. Had been on a goalscoring drought so nice way to hit of again on the day he signed his new contract ​

Definitely celebrated that new contract in style!

Nice piece on why Feruz stats haven't been as good this season

And he has just scored for the U21s now. First goal since Jan

He seems to have been struck by the chelsea strikers curse,maybe a loan out next season will be the next port of call

[lionsden 4,689]

What's happened to the lad. he's being absolutely awful and frustrating to watch this season. I have never rated his all round game and football IQ but atleast he use to bang in goals regularly and his technical ability was somewhat decent. now he just looks awful.

[CHOULO19 24,332]

He's had a bad season. Can't give up on him just yet. I think maybe he's missing the partnership with Piazon as well. Whenever I've seen him this season, he's looked rather isolated and not really on the same page as everyone else. Hopefully he can strike a partnership with Brown or Solanke next season.

He's been used a little differently at times this year, either wider or a little deeper, which is what you'd perhaps expect at this level but players coming up sometimes have that. He's still got that raw instinct of scoring goals but he's been inconsistent which (I feel like I'm repeating myself and not for your benefit choulo) is what you get with young players.

He just needs support and to go again next season...and not get distracted.

Safe to say this hasn't exactly helped his relations with the Celtic fans. He must have his eye on an England cap. He did tweet once that he'd love to play in the ACON but then the countries he is eligible for (Somalia and Tanzania) wouldn't qualify anyway,

Hopefully we have the same plans with the likes of Baker and Swift as well.
