….he has to learn to defend or he’ll struggle for game time. Managers won’t trust him, points are so precious.
Maybe the club or previous managers should have looked to develop that with a loan or a (Lampard aside who did until he got injured but was doing allright) decent run of games.
Leaving him sat on the bench for the last 2.5 years hasn’t helped his game or the club.
Like I say, there’s something there in my opinion but we have failed to develop him from when he arrived. (Could have played further forward like Coleman did early 20s for example). But every club fails with certain players, we did it previously with Robinson being an example. City failed with palmer.
We will move on. Just a shame for the lad.
