If he's staying this season surely we offer him an extension ?
Makes no sense to give him game time and then risk losing him for free next year or being forced to give him a bumper contract ...

We have had loads of them ... being good in the academy is no guarantee that you will even become a first teamer, let alone a good first teamer.

Hope he gets more minutes next time. Looked lively albeit over keen which is understandable when you only have 10 minutes to impress.

Need to make a decision in January. I can't see him leaving if we give him the option to stay though. Seems like he sees his future here in an ideal world.
Just needs game time. And not 5-10 minute cameos.
Easy to forget this kid was the biggest talent in the academy since Gnbary (ahead of Saka and ESR).
If he can stay injury free and we give him minutes he could still fulfil his potential. Still only 22.
