There is probably more chance of him playing than Dibling

Looks like he's got a bit about him anyway

How was he?

It was brief but he looks composed and got something about him.

Ok he blazed over with a half chance but good feet to get in that position. Looks lively

Very encouraging first run out I thought. Night and day with Dibling in terms of getting involved and getting on the ball.

Decent cameo. Fitted in nicely, nothing crazy but moved the ball well, good feet, linked up well, worked hard. Absolutely will be getting time over Dibling I expect based on that small example.

How did he look?

Promising

I thought he was impressive. Not that much came off for him but he's direct and doesn't seem to let his head go down.

Seen other people saying he looks miles of it. Didn't see that myself. Think some people have been conditioned that giving the ball away automatically means you're not cut out for this level.

Yeah thought he was good. Just having Mykolenko behind him isn't good, same as the struggle Grealish had.

I like him, he is direct and kept trying things. Just wish we had better players around him.

Liked what I seem.

As others have said he's quite direct and always at least has a go at making things happen but I'm not expecting lots from him given he is only 19.

Good start though, reckon he will prove to be a handy player for the rest of the campaign.

Good quick confident quality feet.
Like him so far.

Thought he was...ok? I was hoping for a little more if I'm honest as I thought his sub appearance last time out was a bit stronger. Dispossessed a lot which I doubt Moyes was a fan of, and not in great areas either as it was often in his own half. He tried some stuff that didn't come off and wasn't exactly on the same wavelength as others at times. Has confidence in himself though to try things which is good.

In some ways it felt like a more busy/quicker version of what we saw from Dibling albeit Dibling probably does have better technical ability. Dibling tended to play it much safer in our own half and would play the simple pass and lay it off to avoid the tackle but would be more prone to get tackled higher up the pitch.

Need to see more of him really to get a better feeling on him.

Thought he was ok but did nothing of real note. Still, needs time
