Better than Rose already
That would be some fire sale ...im, hopefully lifting trophies with Skipp, Winks, Tanganga and Kane soon
He would make our 5th academy player in these senior set up if all goes well after a year.That would be some fire sale ...
You missed the jokeHe would make our 5th academy player in these senior set up if all goes well after a year.
Some of us like the idea of that.
He's mustard. I rate him higher than KWP (and he was great) at the same age. Proper heads up player, uses his body very well in holding up oppo and/or in the tackle, movement off the ball too is really promising, reads the game well.Nice.
If I was going to highlight an area for improvement - looks very one-footed? It's a real strength for a LB/RB to be 2-footed, especially when attacking.
Absolutely and I thanks that's normal. But he's already quite strong and a very physical player, legs look well developed and has a frame that could fill over the next 5yrs or so. Biggest challenge the young lads have is to sustain a high tempo men's game for 90mins, most fade considerably after 50/60 mins (just look at Chavs team, press like mad then die and offer little in 2nd half, but then less effective when not pressing/resting/managing their game, so it's all or nothing).He's young enough that he can still develop more athleticism, but I'm not sure he's quite there yet physically. Might get the odd game this season but think he'll be much more ready in a year or two.
And is the progeny of Lativan parents so is eligible to play for them too.Just checked and he has played for England U16, 17, 18.
He was born in Dublin so could play for Ireland if they come after him early.

Not sure where he's at exactly but everything looks to be way ahead of his peers (his age group) I think.
