what would Real or Liverpool have paid for him bearing in mind the amounts for Drenthe and Co
Castelen is very good, but still a talent not a finished article...and also very injury prone...
So who knows ?
I like him, I expected a lot of him...but he had to be brought slowly and with low pressure (but the same goes for Babel and Drenthe).
It wouldn't surprise me if all this cradle robbing will result in a failed generation for Holland : all these massive talents still have loads to learn....and I have serious doubts that this is good for their development.
On the other hand RVP, Robben and VDV also left very young...and they're developing all right (Robben and VDV were ready for a move though).
