To be fair I kinda agree with this, he did stand around a fair bit when he came on. Benefit of the doubt though, it must be hard at 17 making your debut in front of 38,000 people, especially when another youngster has just put in a really good shift like that. I really do hope the hype around him is justified.
Considering Ranger had been withdrawn and we were in the last four or so minutes, Hughtons instructions to him were probably to stay higher up the pitch and hold the ball if it was hoofed up there.
Having said that, it'll be a few first team games for him to get accustomed. This is a very physical league and he might need a little while to get used to it, especially at his very young age.
