Not sure how close he is but I think from what I hear he thinks he should be. Tonight he was pretty special. He found out early on that he had the beating of the Everton full back and on numerous ocassions tore him a new one.
He is explosive from a standing start, moves the ball quickly just when the defender thinks he might nick the ball and can go either way to get past him and he does it at real pace. Ran on to a few good passes tonight and was exceptional. The first goal was a joy to watch as he just ripped past the defender and smashed it in. He had already had an attempt saved. Did it again soon after.
I just hope he doesnt feel he must be playing first team football just yet as that could be a problem. Can't wait to see him pre season.
