He's already on some BIG club's radars, England international and Young Player of the Year...that's pretty star-ish to me!

Fucking fantastic news whatever, we just need to get BC, sloth and the rest of the lads to coach him on the intricicies of the modern game. I hope he can stay awake during the seminar.

For all the moaning about rotation and an aging squad and loans and transfers, Walker has been an example of excellent management of a young player's career path.

Well done the lad and hopefully he will continue to get even better next year and improve his decision making both defensively and offensively.

This is excellent news, the lad's going to be the right back of choice for club & country for many years to come and will only get better, he comes across as pretty well grounded and he's ours :D

how's Naughton at left back? because he is obviously not going to be a starter for us on the right

I really like Walker. Gives 100% from start to finish every game, and has real pace to compliment Lennon.

His defensive positioning and decision making will improve.

I'm going to celebrate with a pack of Prawn Cocktail flavoured crisps, made by his Dad.

Walker's growing on me massively, his pace is such an asset to have, offensively and defensively.

Strangely, what I love most is his passion. Even yesterday, it was the first and I think only time in the game that Petrov got away from him and Walker couldn't catch him, the move came to nothing, but you could see Walker kicking the post in anger afterwards, really frustrated that he lost his man. I like seeing such an attitude.
