I realise his Liverpool dream has so far fallen through, but the fact that a high end Premiership club were even interested in taking him as part of their future and that he is part of the England set-up for his age group, is promising enough that we could have a real talent on our hands here.
If I'm honest I was one of the few who came away from St Andrews feeling underwhelmed with his performance, but plenty more knowledgeable people in the game have seen real potential in the lad. If we can look after him, keep him grounded and he listens to the advice of those around him then this could be our most exciting 'signing' of the summer.
He will undoubtedly have learnt many things from his Liverpool experience and hopefully be better for it. We now play a style more inkeeping with his passing ability than under AB. I don't want to big up the lad too much and we probably shouldn't raise our early expectations of him too highly, but given a chance to lean his trade I think we could really benefit from him.
