He’s raw as buggery.  The lad might well develop into a top player but he wasn’t close to it last season - not meant to be a criticism, as he was 16/17 in all fairness.  Hope he does develop, but the last thing he needs is ludicrous expectations from the support - most of these kids do not end up going on to be the second coming.

I'd say so, yes.

Basic summary as obviously there is more to his game.

Like ........... I'm being serious here.  There would be nobody more happy than me to see this young un become a regular.  However, what I've seen so far from him is bang average.  It might be me but some people saying he will be a future England player just blow me away.

Not sure what you are seeing.  Seriously, do you think he's class?

Only thing I'd say might be an issue for him making it to a high level would be his athleticism. Looked painfully slow at times last year, which unfortunately is a much needed attribute for the real top players at PL level. However he has the potential to develop everything else. Definitely has a good footballing brain and does the simple things very well. Could develop into a bit of a Michael Carrick type perhaps.

I for one don't think that but I think he does the basics well and there is a place in the squad for him. He looks comfortable in possession and has great awareness.

Alan Smith (Leeds one) got 19 caps for England. Anything can happen.

Didn't really see much in that cameo. What's everyone fizzing over? Thought the game was well dead and everyone was waiting for it to be over.
