Bit naughty this comp, then. If he was released to enter, then Welling really should receive some form of compo from Inter or Sky.

lol wut? can't help but think its kinda like a tie-in with sky-sports and inter. and srsly, if he was THAT good, surely a scout woulda found him first, and he coulda got a contract without going through this "competition" crap...

My name is Jose and i am the top goal scorer this season for everton reserve squad. I am unfortuneatley not the captain but i am also a striker i was sat at home and i saw this lad play and i kept on tunin in to make sure it just wasn't a good day. but day after day i was dazzled by his footwork and i envied him. it is true he played for welling united and yes i have met ben. After he won the series and found out he wasnt going to start for inter for a while i told David Moyes he was a bright talent and he should consider asking for a transfer. He is a very talented play and i the everton reserve squad did have a training session with him as David has considered wat i had sed. He played along side me upfront in a practice match and scored 4 goals. He drifted through the defence and was astonished he hadnt been discovered. Me and the lads were sad that inter announced he would spend the season with their boys. He has a villa in milan and currently plays for them as a reserve or a substitute often. After meeting and training with ben greenhalgh i had to put all the rumours of him being a fake to rest. Ben has also acted as a double for ronaldo in a commercial with the football skills and tricks and is rumoured to be shortly doing a commercial with cristiano ronaldo as there styles are very similar. Both of them are brilliant talents .
