So who are the potential superstars in the 19-23 age bracket?

Gotze
Neymar
Thiago
Isco
Wilshere
Hazard
Reus (only turned 24 last Friday)
Varane
De Gea
You'll end up with a really really long list.

But Oscar is better than Neymar, until now, IMO.

Oscar will be brazil's main player. Chelsea have a star on their hands.

Brazil looked worse when they took him off.

Also, Hernanes should start.

The Allianz Arena is a beautiful stadium. I really like the lights that change depending on the home team playing. I remember John W Henry was there in 2011 looking for inspiration.

I'm surprised the Westfalenstadion has a larger capacity though......
 
Just go to the inbedwithmaradona blog, it has a list of the 100 brightest talents with a detailed analysis of each player.

Good stuff.

I heard Moyes keeps it under his pillow.

Drexler?
Maher?
Eriksen?

Haven't seen enough of these kids to really make an informed choice, maybe some of you who have could prove we wrong/right?

They are limited by the surrounding infrastructure and the fact that 1860 has to play in that stadium. But you shouldnt forget that Dortmund has a masive standing area, as an allseater the AA is already bigger than the Westfalenstadion.

Muller is only 23?!?!

I feel like he's been around forever! Holy shit lol

He turns 24 in September. The 09 /10 season was his first complete season and ended with the CL final, the best young player award at the World Cup and the Golden Boot (as a 20 year old).

Imagine if he a certain Brazilian player had accolades like that... Football Fan wouldnt stop salivating about him, oh wait...

El Sharaawy, Griezmann, Dzagoev, Deulofeu, Shaqiri, Gundogan, Moura, Verratti, Pogba... And maybe Insigne..maybe.

I know quite a few football fans who rate Draxler ahead of Gotze. Eriksen has kind of slowed down in his development but the talent is there. Maher.........Maher is an outrageous talent.

I've seen him play quite a bit, but it's the glowing reviews of dutch journalists (in comparison to Eriksen) that really make you hope he gets wider exposure. I remember City were chasing him earlier in the season, even though Eriksen was available.
