All you have to do is look at his scoring stats:
PSV Eindhoven 1994 - 1996 : 42 goals in 46 matches
Barcelona 1996 - 1997 : 34 goals in 37 matches
Yeah! man his numbers are in sane and the Barcelona is the one that just stands out at you cause you gotta think how many great names have played there Romario, Johan, Maradona, Stoichkov, Kliuvert, Dinho.....

Yeah! he is....
Very under rated IMO when people talk about soccer greats his names SHOULD be mentioned, and I wont argue the fact that he falls a bit short when comparing all aspects as far as him not having a World Cup but the sh*t! he did on the pitch and what he accomplished in Mexico & Europe forget it man! it speaks volumes...

I hear his younger brother Jonathan is crazy talented too (He is with the Barcelona youths right now).
Kids got a sh*t load of talent, good vision on the pitch hes always aware of his surroundings and to me thats a plus for a player as young as he is. From what I've read he loves to practice he always has a ball no matter where he goes... Barcas holding back on him a bit but I mean they have Messi, Saviola, Eto'o & Gudjohnson how do you choose.

His younger bro still needs a lot of work, you can still see the kid in him and wont be ready for years..... He plays well for the level hes at and certainly you can see hes got something special going on there.
