I am someone who will happily criticise or give praise, I call it as I see it but I will also happily admit when I am proven wrong. When we signed him, I wasn't particularly happy about it. Personally I thought it was a waste of money on a player that we wouldn't need at this time and that he would just be shipped out on loan in the way Ilori has been. Had a few "debates" with a few people on here about it but I will gladly admit I was wrong. I think that due to us signing so many young players but them not actually being used/good enough I wrote this lad off too soon. I was partly right if reports are to believed that the intention was to loan him out virtually straight away but the lad clearly impressed from the first given chance and has forced any plans to loan him out to be forgotten.
The only criticism I have of the lad so far is that he is picking up too many bookings. 3 games and 3 yellows isn't good enough, it's an indication a red card could easily come his way IMO and he will be picking a fair few suspensions if he keeps this going. But he is young, playing really well and showing a lot of commitment so I'm sure he will sort that side of his game out.
Keep it going lad and keep proving those doubters, admittedly such as myself, wrong.
