Yeah, I agree with that. As long as he concentrates on playing his football and doesn't go bonkers on the pitch and ultimately matures, he'll be one helluva player.
A few glimpses of exciting potential here and there but really looks like he won't have a future here once he comes back from Brighton. Like you say, it's a shame.
I'd love it if that was something he actually was putting hours in on the training pitch trying to rectify.
