It's all a bit sad. He's clearly prodigiously talented, but seems to be going through a rough patch (some possibly of his own making). I would love to see the club stick with him through this, perhaps finding a loan that could suit him and give him more first team exposure, maybe even out of the country to shake things up for him.
There was a story when he returned from Norwich that he never showed up to a practice on time. Both Poch and Norwich's Farke have said he doesn't run enough or contribute enough off the ball. All of that just seems like immaturity, but of course 18 and 19 year olds are often immature. He could be a different man in a couple years, so I think it's worth sticking with him. He clearly has some growing up to do, but I also don't think the club needs to take a hard line approach with someone so young.
