Interesting player with talent to burn.A potential first team player next season maybe?
Certainly proved himself in league 1 with Doncaster, 15 goals 9 assists in all competitions.
Not bad going for someone who only turned 20 in December.
Popular with the Doncaster fans, has attracted praise apparently for his performances in league 1 from the media and rival fans and such.
Powerfully built young man, a shade under 6ft or just over depending on where you read, pacey and direct, preferring to play on the right in order to be able to cut in on his preferred left foot (he is extremely one footed from what ive seen but tbf most players are).
What i do like is he isnt a kick and rush sort of dribbler from what ive seen, he has the pace to do that but he has quick feet and is able to beat a man that way to which given how little space we get in the final 3rd is probably more useful then kick and rush.
Now, there is a legal matter that he has pending and quite a serious one, he will face charges of assault occasioning actual bodily harm and violent disorder (however he is innocent until proven guilty and while their would be no excuse if guilty its fair to say the lad has had a difficult time).
So, legal issues aside, could he have a part to play next season?

According to Leeds he strongly and vehemently denies the charges.
His trial is in July apparently so he will either be back at EL for pre-season or captaining the HMP New Hall X1.
