It's a refreshing change and goes to show that he does have good people around him. And as much as I wanted us to sign him, I wish more were encouraged to do this and it's good to know not all young kids are being told to follow the money. As long as we are front of the queue when he's ready to move on.Fair play to the lad. All he is is potential ATM, and I guess no one was able to guarantee him game time(we certainly weren't). Glad to see he's chosen playing regularly over £££.

Agreed. But surely we could have come up with a proposal where we loaned him to a PL club like a Bournemouth for a year? Meaning he would get PL experience rather than Championship experience.
Why would any premier league club give a guarantee of game time to a 17yo who has never kicked a ball in the Prem when there is so much riding on the outcome?
Because he is potentially the next Deli. Notwithstanding that we could loan him back to Fulham or another Champ Club.

Makes no difference to the club he's on loan to for one season. They have no reason to play him.
Indeed it he's is not currently better than what they have why would they want him? His potential means nothing to them.
I note what you say. But if you follow your line of thought there would be no players out on loan! Chelsea and City are making it work. Personally I hate the loan system. My view is whilst this system is allowed we should have invested.

How do you know we didn't?The kids is obviously going to be a real talent I would love to have seen us try to buy him and loan him back to to Fulham as we don`t have a position free for him at the moment anyway, but in one or two seasons we probably will cash in Davies or Rose so we could have just slotted him in.
Because he signed a new contract with FFCHow do you know we didn't?
He signed his first ever contract (he was an apprentice before). Doesn't mean we're out of the run. Just means we now have to pay an actual fee for him rather than a tribunalBecause he signed a new contract with FFC
