I think he's doing well so far but the one real highlight from him in the U23s was his ability to drift into the box late and get shots away, I hope he can start bringing that into his game again soon because we don't score enough goals from central midfield right now.

One from Hourihane, one from McGinn. Depends on where you counted Barkley as playing I suppose. It's not good enough anyway, the defenders have contributed more.

I've been down a YouTube rabbit hole. They both seem like thoroughly lovely fellas.I'll post the same on the other's thread too, for the sake adhering to the Ministerial Code.
He's a good young player who will hopefully grow into a recognisable role. As it is though, I'm not sure what that is yet.
