When I played with him, he was the best 19-year-old I’d ever played with.  “He’s had a frustrating couple of years with injuries and not managing to settle anywhere, but we absolutely believe in him because he’s a special player with the talent to get a stadium to its feet. “He is still very young and has got so much more to give the game. We are delighted he can continue his progress with us.”</blockquote>
