I think it is pretty obvious that this kid has got real issues.
Whether that is
A) attitude
B) Physical
C) Mental
I suppose only he and the club know.
However, from what I have seen, there is a player in there somewhere. He seems to have all tge attributes of an Ian Taylor if he can get his head out of his backside long enough to realise it.
I would give him another go. Tell him it is day 1. He could be that link we are missing (then again, the same could be said of Richards !)
Too young and too soon to just ditch him. We did that with Luke Moore, who then had a number of successful years in the Prem.
There are too many of these at the Villa for it to be the player's issue.
I also think its worth pointing out that this time ladt year, Stevenage told Kienan Davies he wasnt good enough.
