I know he is playing left wing but is he actually left footed? Going by Whitby highlights he looks very comfortable shooting on his right?

Can score, and by fook we need someone with goals in them. Start him v Boro and Bradford, see what he can do, if gets a goal start him at Stevenage IMO. None of this kid gloves shi*e, throw him in at the deep end.

He's a BIG highlight of the pre-season. More effective than Compton and shows no fear..get him in, now.

Very talented for his age, and sounds as if he's also very versatile. He reminds me of Luke James when Micky Barron first threw him in the team back in 2011...let's hope he can have just as good an impact, if not, better!!

the way forward is to produce your own... or get ones who never quite made it at a higher level club but are still young enough to get better and develop

Signing established journeymen pros like Walton etc only gets you so far... they are limited.

Young 'uns like Luke James, Brad Walker etc on their day can set the league alight.

I know what I'd rather watch after years of Humphreys, Monkhouse etc being bang average at best
