It's impressive considering the bulk of Lewis's impact came during mid-season. Most of the other players have multiple years at senior level.

However, it's a bit of a popularity contest (what isn't?). So you can take that to mean whatever you choose.

I think that he will ultimately end up playing in midfield. He played 6 full games last season, admittedly the last three were dead rubbers, and was brought off late and for the ovation in others. That suggests that he will have little problem building stamina in the coming years, and as he becomes physically stronger, he'll become a tough little nugget. He's only 2cm shorter than Kante and I could see him developing in that mould.
 
Was going great guns until that Spurs away game.

During that game he was targeted, kicked from all angles, and with no protection from the officials whatsoever.

Pep then rightly took him out of the firing line, bringing him back for the last couple of games.

All that would have been a massive experience and learning curve for him, and he'll definitely be a better player next season for it.

Really looking forward to him establishing himself, and going from strength to strength!

Having seen what Pep does improving older players imagine what he can do with a teenager

Looks like Rico is the only player around the first time who hasnt got a new contract. Anyone heard any rumors of a new deal ?
 
He had a great first season and his promotion into the first team was a real bonus.

I think he's going to be a midfielder for us and i'm really looking forward to watch him develop under Pep.
