Aye, it's something we don't put a lot of stock into -- at least in the sense of outside our own continent. We seem to be very defensive/apprehensive about young players heading overseas, but in all honesty, it'll be awesome seeing him grow as a player and as a man. He's been breaking some pretty impressive records.. hopefully he'll tear up Switzerland and win a championship (maybe more).
