Even though Kanta feels like he's a veteran, he's still a few years away from his physical and (hopefully) playing peak.

Wonder if Bayern still have his number?
I remember when Kanta was about 17-18 and a mainstay of the U-20 Socceroos and was going overseas every few months to tournaments and qualifiers, GVE done him no favours by not resting him enough I feel. Quite often he would be back from overseas and within a couple days or so would be rushed back into the line-up. No wonder by the time he was 20 he started having these injury problems.
