Top ten current teenagers in football (your decision whether to base it upon now or potential)

ALL the answers will be based on potential, because you've limited it to 'teenagers'. Sterling is in Liverpool's first team more due to their lack of quality than on merit. He'd never have started a game at any of the top 6 yet.

Disagree on that, look at the likes of Gotze, his initial breakthrough season he was a huge part in Dortmund winning the league. Muniain was a huge factor in Bilbao's Euro campaign last year. Sterling would have been given the chance at the likes of Spurs or Utd certainly, City had Denis Suarez starting just a couple of weeks ago.

Currently he's 3rd in the Premier League for 'successful' dribbles, has a 83.2% successful pass rate and has created 11 chances.
Yes he the stereotypical burst of speed of an English winger but he also is showing the ability to look up.
Whilst at Utd they have a wealth of wingers Fergie has always been one to give youth a chance and I fully believe that if Sterling had been brought to OT he'd have seen some first team action by now as well. Nick Powell and Phil Jones are both examples of teenagers brought in the past 2 seasons that he's happy to thrust straight into games where he can.

Yes I have watched Sterling play because I have a different opinion I must not have watched him

Moses and Hoilett last season were first and second in most successful dribbles in the league last season but I'm sure they wouldn't make the United team and I'd say both are better then Sterling. 83% is not really a good percentage of passing rate and wasn't David Batty one of the highest passing percentage wise?

Powell and Jones didn't come through the United academy they already had experience at other clubs before the move and were one of the better players at the club. It's not 1995 anymore Ferguson does not trust these youngsters as much, when we had injury why wasn't Wootton given a chance? Will Keane? Pogba? Morrison etc.
