Thought Mumba would have been in the squad, seems to have dropped off the face of the earth now we have more than a few who can play in that position.

The lad needs a loan move in my opinion.

Someone says he's being played at RB for the young'uns which makes no sense. Seeing as he looked capable of playing for the first team at CM, based off his performance against Aribo.

That's a shame if so as he looked very decent for a young lad and very capable.

He’s still only just turned 17 isn’t he ? I’d expect him to feature in the EFL trophy this year. He still needs to beef up a bit . Loan next year maybe.

I would usually agree but he looked much more advanced than lads his age when he started last season, he didn't look out of place. Maybe we should try and keep him ahead of the curve and get him out to the likes of Hartlepool or someone like that.
 
If I was a Burnley fan I'd want to give this competition a real go. I'm not surprised they've pick a strong team.

Free hit for us tonight.

Makes sense to me, although he did play okay, there was a certain aspect to his game missing in midfield. I’d rather see the lad develop properly, find his best position and that down. We don’t need to rush him into a role he isn’t best suited for. Let the lad develop and we’ve got a class player. No sense in rushing things because he is promising.
