Any views? "....He tipped Bruno Andre, 15, who is currently playing for Queens Park Rangers, as the next young prospect to make it big after spending his formative years at Mill Hill Rangers.

Mill Hill Times - Premier League stars have climbed Hill to success
NOBODY will be more pleased than Vince Purdue if starlets John Bostock and Josh Payne make it the big time.
The pair were coached by Vince when they played for youth side Mill Hill Rangers and even when they were nine he noticed they were both two footed.
Vince, 42, who coached them when they played for Rangers' under-9s, said: "They were both were two footed and at such an early age that is a massive advantage.
"They were both really skilful and could beat opponents at a drop of a hat but they had the right attitude too. Josh is really down to earth. He's been brought up the right way. He has no aires and graces and his parents have shown real dedication."
Despite his early promise, Payne was released when he was aged 15 and returned to Rangers before being snapped up by West Ham United.
Vince said: "He still comes back to our presentation evening to hand out awards. At the moment our youngsters don't really know who he is but last season he was captain of the youth side and the reserves and went out on loan to Cheltenham Town. He'll soon be knocking on the door of the first team."
He added Bostock, who now plays for Tottenham after a spell at Crystal Palace, showed a real desire to win.
"Before he joined us John had never won a trophy and his mum said he was desperate to win one. But during a summer tournament he showed such desire and took the winning penalty with such aplomb," Vince said.
