THIS is the woman who nurtured the skills of Manchester Uniteds
new wonderkid Rhain Davis.
Maths teacher Diana Patchett helped the nine-year-old hone his
amazing talent in Australia.
And she was thrilled at Uniteds decision to whisk Rhain and
family 11,000 miles to Britain after club scouts saw a DVD of his
ability.
The mum of four said last night: Rhains realised his dream. He
truly is a miraculous talent.
Diana, who teaches at Moreton Bay Boys School in Brisbane, said
Rhain worships Uniteds Cristiano Ronaldo, copying his skills for
hours.
She said: He even includes him and Wayne Rooney in his
prayers.
Rhain, who is under 4ft, and dad Mark have moved to Cheshire. Mum
Leah and brothers Emerson, 12, and Reeve, five, will join them
soon.
Bookies William Hill rate Rhain at 33/1 to play for England and at
20/1 to play for United.
Meanwhile, Calum Collins, 11, of Birmingham, has been dubbed a
genius by soccer legend Pele.
Dad John, a soccer coach, said: Hopefully he and Rhain will one
day lead England to World Cup glory. Calum, an Aston Villa target,
also wants to play for Man U.
