He looked like a 17 year old kid, can't imagine how he's coping with Erling in training. Great for the lad but from a pure physical perspective he's not ready to be getting regular minutes. Not his fault, I'm sure he ill grow and fill out and hopefully the rest of his game is ready when that happens.

 

[TFC]

Chuffed for him :)

Pep usually doesnt play lads this young, also surprised it was him and not Josh who got some minutes

 

[abu13]

Good luck to the lad, looked comfortable.

 

[Cassandra]

Only listened to the commentary on the City app but they commented on how de Bruyne was picking him out with passes to help him settle into the game.

Must have been a real buzz for the lad when he came on.

I have heard over the years many players described as too small. Be wary, little men have a low centre of gravity and often turn out to be excellent. That Messi bloke hasn’t done too bad. I don’t think Lewis will make a CB but otherwise he may be one of those little men like Sweep who turn out great.
Long Shot: Midfielder in the middle, what us FOBs know as an inside forward?

I don't like to needlessly compare academy players but I don't think I'm putting Wilson-Esbrand down when I say that Lewis looks like he's the better prospect.

From the glimpses I've seen, he really seems to have something about him.
