We don’t know that. You are right, the odds are that he won’t become an undisputed GOAT like Steph, who is up there in the Kobe/Lebron echelon now.

But the point I’m making is that nobody had a clue what Steph would become before Kerr came in and guided them to become all time great franchise.

Simons is that kind of mercurial talent in style. The professional side of the sport has been part of his life from an early age as well

Do we not know that? The chance of Xavi becoming as good at football as Steph is basketball is super low imo. Hell, I’d personally go as far to say the only guy in world football with Steph potential is Yamal.

I hope Xavi fulfils the huge amount of potential he has though and this is a great place to do it. Also totally agree that Frank can be that man.

Obviously we don’t know that.

Yamal is your prediction atm but NOBODY was predicting Steph to be a GOAT. Before Kerr went in there he had bad ankles and everyone thought he took too many bad shots

Haven’t been this excited about a signing for a long time - When’s the last time we signed a player with Simon’s level of flair?

He’s only 22 - Simons is very good now but he’s going to become a world class player under Frank.

Just what is VDV doing that's put that cheeky smile on Xavi' s face?
 
Maybe watch a bit of Simons tonight against Poland. From what I've read he will start on the right wing in a 4-3-3 (with Memphis and Gakpo). Van de Ven possibly at left-back.

Simons is like a football Steph Curry before he worked with Steve Kerr.

If Frank can be that type of presence for him, there’s literally no ceiling.

Jesus Christ, wtf is the point in this monumental hyperbole before he’s even kicked a ball for us. He’s significantly less productive than a Sancho was in the Bundesliga - he’s just a talented 10 not the new fucking Kaka on steroids..

Maybe he’s saving himself so he doesn’t get injured ahead of the debut
