He's definitely a left back.

How would you describe yourself as a player?

I think I’m a tenacious full-back. I like to go up and down the wing and I’m a versatile player who can play in other roles like right-back or centre-midfield. My best attribute is crossing and I’m quite a fast player as well.

Checking FlashScore.com.....
We're still 1up after 76 mins. Apparently scored in the 16th min, but it doesn't say who.
Both clubs twitter feeds aren't much use and I've seen nothing on their forum.
In summary: I know sod all and don't know how to find anything out!

Honestly our comms for u23s/academy has gone tits up.

I know it's only a small thing but they used to provide minute by minute updates as they happen, they don't even do scorers now.

U18s they've stopped giving match reports! The other day they interviewed Chay Thompson or whatever he's called about a 2-2 game and the article didn't even tell us who scored.

Seemed to change when the academy management changed over. Could be deliberate to try and keep decent prospects under the radar or protect them from hype etc.

Yes, exactly. Naturally a LB but, as with most young players, can play other positions too.

Not learning anything new, scored tons for Rochdale reserves went into the first team and struggled and that was a team at the bottom of League 1. Should go to the National League or League 2 in January

Agreed. It's his physicality particularly that needs work, L2/NL would be a good test for him.

To be fair, going into a struggling team isn't always the best way to settle into a higher level of football. I do agree that people need to temper expectation though, he's not ready yet but clearly has something about him. Given we have 4 good strikers I agree that a loan would be good, similar to Bapaga who now seems to be getting up to speed in men's football. It's a big jump regardless of level, players are bigger, stronger and faster.

Of course, they'll go out on loan as and when they're ready.

He is 21 in Jan so one of the older players in the 23s. If he can get 7-8 in the second half of the season at a National League or League 2 club that should bring him closer to our first team
