Coach's Overall Comments:
Got stronger as the combine progressed. His defensive positioning and reading of the game was excellent out wide as well as centrally. Very good on ball rarely lost possession. A complete player. Lacks some power and strength and can improve striking of the ball off the dribble. Good on set pieces, especially taking corners. Has potential and good upside. A pleasure to coach.
