Let us not get carried away because the chances of him failing are high.

The worse thing that it may happen to him now is that he starts believing some of the crap being thrown to him, (ie that he had made it). Once they get that attitude, they rarely keep on developing and that can be clearly seen by some of our once 'great' talent which ended up, either warming the bench or being sold on cheap.
Right so you don't understand sarcasm.

He has premiership and international experience, both of which he has been getting positive reports from. He seems to be highly rated by any coach or manager that comes near him. We all know development can be a bitch but that isn't going to stop me becoming excited by a young prospect with the world at their feet maturing into a first team player.

You have no idea what kind of person johnny evans is yet you speculate away if that makes you feel better about your argument. What you don't see is that we're all speculating but you're a cup half empty guy and i'm a cup half full guy, which i'd rather be any day of the week.
