00:00 It's been amazing since I've come in really.
00:04 It was one of my first days when I came to the club.
00:07 He'd been on loan at Tokyo and he came to see me and asked to train with the first team.
00:11 So at that point, he wasn't even training with the first team.
00:15 And then this season he's been growing really hard.
00:18 He's played right back, right wing back.
00:21 Today was quite tough for him because I asked him to defend in a wide area
00:24 and then actually with the ball be a 10.
00:27 How you see him play is exactly how he trains.
00:31 He's a credit to the academy really.
00:34 He's a massive winging fan as well.
00:37 He deserves a day like today.
