• No tags of any sort on the article, well done

• Would a break between club and international career in the lead be appropriate?

• A bit on playing style, using the sources given later, would be necessary in the lead

• In his Zurich career, the noun "17 year old" should be spelt "17-year-old"

• Would it be appropriate to unpipe "derby" into "Zurich Derby", to ensure that the reader knows that it is a city derby rather than a regional one? It is not evident from the name Grasshopper that they share a city with his team.

• "going the full ninety in an entertaining 2–3 defeat ". The tone here could be improved. Something more encyclopedic like "playing the full 90 minutes". It is POV to say the match was entertaining, especially as the reference is a statistic sheet rather than a match report.

• "were parachuted into the Europa League" is this tone appropriate? "dropped into" (without the "were") is used by most football media I've heard

• "beating out the likes of": I would write "ahead of"

• Wolfsburg: again, as a noun, it is "19-year-old"

• 2014-15: using "the Wolves" as a substitute for Wolfsburg is not really advised, as football nicknames often remain strictly untranslated.

• Has any new prognosis come for his recent injury? "A number of weeks" can be improved.

• "U-xx" and "Uxx" are used to represent international youth teams in this article's prose. Please pick one format and stick with it.

• No problems with sources, all from reputable media

In conclusion, with these very small solutions, this is a GA article. '''tAD''' (talk) 19:54, 4 November 2014 (UTC)
