Ben Sahar - 5 goals in Dallas cup (Cup leading scorer)

[Sven]

Credit to him, be it what every nation. Called for the senior team at the age of 17 is very impressive. Hopefully can score goal against Shevchenko side.

Game is on Tuesday 7:30 Israel vs Ukraine.

Great news. He deserves it but tbh I'm surprised, especially if he's got to go on army duty or something it would be bad for the country.

[Sven]

They passed a law, saying he does not have to. They didn't want him to go on army duty because he woudn't be able to benefit the National team or progess a footballer, so nice one.

[Jose_Mourinho]

Wicked. That suits us. btw sinclair just lengthened his lone at plymouth.

Plymouth have extended their loan deal for teenage Chelsea striker Scott Sinclair by an extra month.
Sinclair has scored two goals in four games since joining Argyle on 21 January, including a spectacular solo goal against Barnet in the FA Cup.

He will now stay at Home Park until 17 March, a week before his 18th birthday.

It means he will be available for Argyle's next seven Championship games, as well as the FA Cup fifth round tie at home to Derby on 17 February.

gd for him he deserves it.

Ben Sahar (pictured) became both Chelsea and Israel's youngest ever international player when he made his full debut on Wednesday evening.



The 17-year-old striker, who will not turn 18 until August, began a friendly against Ukraine in Tel Aviv and played the first 70 minutes.



It continued a rapid rise of that saw him make his Chelsea debut just last month and an elevation into the full Israel squad after just two appearances for the Under 21s.



Spearheading the opposition in Tel-Aviv was Andriy Shevchenko who captained and played the first hour for Ukraine. Neither he nor Sahar scored as the game finished 1-1.



Israel's next competitive fixture is at home to England who tasted defeat following a lacklustre performance against Spain at Old Trafford on Wednesday.

Good news, Hope he plays England.

Very impressive, gd for him

[SheDevil]

Called for the senior team at the age of 17 is impressiv.Israel is a good team.

[Sven]

Ye only 2 goals on his first International competitive game.

Ben Sahar kids got talent.

[Super Pibe #7]

Israel have a very scary attacking line for the future.

Sahar is good, but you have'nt seen gai assulin yet

[Sven]

I know of him, the Real Madraid youngster? Sahar has everything strength and pace with a brillant football brain. 2 apps (sub) 2 goals , 1st competitve game gets 2 goals.

In 8 months he's moved from Chelsea youth , Chelsea reserve to 3 Chelsea games to Isreal under 21 1 goal to Isreal national team, not bad.

His goals were good too.

[Super Pibe #7]

Barcelona juvenile A youngster only 15 though has a long way to go. Has great pace,strength and can take a game by the scruff of the neck. Better than messi at the age of 15 and the best youngster in the current group along with alcantara/terron/iago.

Anyways i am not trying to compare them assulin still has to do it at the highest level whilst sahar is nearly there.

[Sven]

Sahar can improve more I think, aint to bad to train with likes of Shevchenko and Drogba each day .

Compare away mate, like hearing about youth players out there, I know Barcelona have some real raw talents in there C and B teams, like the Serb/Spanish Bojan.

Iago I've heard wonders about.

Sahar along with Sinclair and the Espanyol youngster Tejera who joined this summer are real talents in our team atm.

How many youth think will make that push to your first team in coming years? I'm sure De Santos will be in A team next year?
