Looked very good against the Buccaneers in the Cup and when Palace were on Sky the following game as well.

20 year old English right fullback.

Looks very promising
 
I think he's a good prospect, but I don't think that we need to sign him. We have the best right back in the league, who himself is only 23. Then we have a very good backup option behind him in Zabaleta, who is versatile, reasonably experienced, and great to have in the squad.

So yeah, while I think he will make it in the Premiership for someone, it won't be us. Wouldn't be surprised if Arsenal or Liverpool made a move for him soon.
 
RAG bound if some rumours are to be believed as Baconface is getting tired of the glass Brazilian twins and will flog them soon.
 
Unlikely we'd be in for another right back but this guy is out of contract and PL clubs sniffing. (Daily Fail however)

Only 21, english and already 123 appearances in the Championship at that age. It would mean Zabba being our LB cover I guess if we sold Kolarov to fit him in the squad - not sure how wise that would be.

Looks like a bargain but I guess we'd be after a LB if AK went....
