It will be a few peaks and troughs but all that he's showing now was evident three years ago against his peer group V Arsenal.I just hope he has a better advisor than a few other youngsters which have come and gone. But money talks in football, his beat bet would be to stay and develop, very good prospect but not the finished article and needs games under his belt.

Na, think he looks more like Vic Reeves.Anyone reckon he's similar to Mortimer?
Is it right he’s out of contract in the summer ?
Best thing for him is to stay until the summer and then earn a big money move.
Apparently.Is it right he’s out of contract in the summer ?
Well two have come in, most would seem to like one more, but if this and whatever pot comes next through tonights draw, you would think there should be enough to offer a tempting deal possibly half of what he'd get for U23 Prem football or loaned out, including a get out If promotions don't materialise say in 18months.he's played 8 games ! We could do with getting him to signing a contract
He’s played about 5 games! He does the look the real deal in fairness but football is nuts nowadays the way it works.
Scouts continually monitor individuals, kids as young as 10/11 get themselves little reputations then they are kept an eye on, I’d put money on the likes of George Thomas, Stevenson, Maddison, the kid who went Man United probably Baylis too there will be others will have been spotted and monitored for a few years and while we are in the bottom divisions we will lose players to the bigger clubs, unfortunately there are three divisions and 65 clubs above us probably all paying higher wages too. A Derby scout is a regular at the Higgs he’s well known and doesn’t hide away or anything..Nothing can really be done about it to me it just means a lot of time and work is put in for other clubs to snatch starlets cheaply.Weren't Tottenham watching him before he had even played a game?
Hope not another Sambou situationIs it right he’s out of contract in the summer ?
Personally I’d go for fighting for a place in a championship club over sitting in a Prems U23s, but luckily for him he can sound out both possibilities.
Dennis Mortimer was a leading midfielder of his generation, Captain of league champions and European Cup winners. He lacked a little pace, could tackle and forage in the heart of midfield, not a goalscorer by any means but his passing was first rate. Of todays players Michael Doyle is the most similar but without the end product of Mortimer.Similar , but Tom Bayliss is not afraid to get stuck in and tackle !!!
likely to be double the wage at the prem club
Weren't Tottenham watching him before he had even played a game?
In terms of City players. Gary Mcallister.I'm probably all over the place here but am curious as to peoples opinion as to who he's similar to be it current or past.
I'll throw in Charlie George!!
I think this lad has at his age Level.Not Charlie George , he was a number 10 and scored some spectacular goals .
Dunno, Willie was never a physical player, he was and remains slight of stature and mainly popped up in the right place at the right time, Here is some of his good moments.I know it's early days in Tom Bayliss career but I'd say Willie Carr .
The way he drives at people having received the ball and turned is very reminiscent of Gary Mac, Bobby Charlton used to drive at defenders from midfield with power and elegance.I'm probably all over the place here but am curious as to peoples opinion as to who he's similar to be it current or past.
I'll throw in Charlie George!!
Nope, I would say he is different to both of them, originality is good though!So it's a mix between Dennis Mortimer and Willie Carr , wow Tom Bayliss could turn out to be one hell of a player .
Yeah, definitely. I don't see Carr and Mortimer in him as at all really.Nope, I would say he is different to both of them, originality is good though!
Yeah, McAllister, Robson and Wilshire.I think he's got a bit of Wilshere about him. The way he uses his body to take contact but protect the ball. The driving runs forward. The tackles. I can't recall a youngster coming in and looking so at home, so quickly.
Hope he turns out to be a great player for us , but the players he is being compared with played at a much higher level .
