The parallels between him and Rooney are so spooky that I think I can confidently predict that Ahkeem Rose will go on to become Jamaica's all-time goal scorer.

He needs to be around the First team squad not sent out. The more coaching he gets within the squad and minutes as a sub the more he will read the game. Shame that he and Max got so little time in the Gainsborough game when the result was never in doubt.
His dead ball accuracy and goal in the Barton game were excellent.
Sooner rather than later for me and arguably the signing of the summer.

Rooney broke records, but so will AR. He'll set the record for the longest debut.

Can I ask what all the fuss over him is about when he’s played so little professional football?

Just curious..

I wouldn't say "fuss" as such Andy, he came here under a different regime and for unforeseen visa issues we could get him on the pitch.
What narks me is this, yes there is no doubt the kids got talent and yes he needs schooling, but I don't think we have the privilege of being able to have "potentials" in a squad that already lacks quality in the striker front...So rather than have him sat warming the bench or being in and around the first team to gain "experience" I'd rather see him on the field cutting his teeth, if he flops then at least we know he was just another hopeful that didn't make the grade but, if he starts ripping defences apart and banging a few in then he becomes a bloody good asset..

Which is a notion that was implicit in my original questions to start this thread.

So if we throw in a young inexperienced striker, who has only just got into the first team squad and he flops, he's just another striker who didn't make the grade? Not much pressure there then.

Can't we just trust that the people paid to make these calls will know when, and more importantly if, he's ready.

On the flip side some will flourish under the pressure, I'm not saying I don't trust those who make the decisions, in fact I trust MJs judgement implicitly, I just don't want to see what may be an extraordinary talent going to waste...

It's not going to waste in the sense he is being developed through coaching in preparation for the 1st team when (if) MJ feels he is ready. Every single pro footballer will go through this stage

Not being funny but if he was an "extraordinary talent" then he wouldn't be here.
