Do you remember when Matty Etherington was the new Gazza? I reckon the lad has immense natural ability, although so did Zaha. All we can do is wait and see
Etherington was never that good - just seemed promising because of what had come before.

I watched a decent amount of Zaha coming through and Edwards is a complete step above. If there's anyone I'd be scared of him replicating it'd be Taarabt, but I can't see that happening... Better footballing brain and better temperament.Do you remember when Matty Etherington was the new Gazza? I reckon the lad has immense natural ability, although so did Zaha.

Plus you can already see Edwards' striking of the ball is sensational. Zaha has never had that or much of a footballing brain.I watched a decent amount of Zaha coming through and Edwards is a complete step above.

He was the new Gazza - just not in a footballing sense. I'm quite sure his career went to the toilet as he let his vices (drink and gambling) ruin his career.
Etherington came across from P'boro at the same time as Simon Davies. Typical Pleat signings - proven at lower division level, lots of potential, some work some don't. I got the idea that Etherington was the favourite to succeed but Davies overtook him pretty quickly and Raincoat selected him after a couple of months. I saw him score a couple of goals in a cup tie and he looked useful. Badly affected by injuries. Man Utd were interested at one stage.Maybe I am confusing him with someone else, it is hard to keep track of all the new Gazzas that there have been
I still think I haven't seen a more gifted player in the last 20 years at Spurs, at the age of 17.
You sure? We have a squad of gifted footballers right now who aren't so bad...
I love the way he can spank the ball on full sprint. It's so difficult to do, I think Son is our only other player that can do it.Plus you can already see Edwards' striking of the ball is sensational. Zaha has never had that or much of a footballing brain.

Etherington just had pace, one trick pony.
