But he's a young player that has to earn his spot, like Phil did, like many others do at clubs they come through. It's not like he was an established player yet when he left.
Why didnt Savio have to earn his spot? He barely had a pre-season, didn't speak much English and had barely trained with the first team but still started the opening league game against Chelsea. What about Doku last season? He started 18 league games, Bobb only started 2. Personally I think Bobb is a better player than Doku but because he's an academy graduate he's got to sit on the bench for a couple of years and get most of his minutes when we're 3-0 up.
