He played a couple of matches at the beginning of the season and I didn't see him again on the football pitch until 3rd December when he came on as a 2nd half substitute against Salford. He didn't however appear in the squad for the next game against Stoke in the Youth Cup
In his article in Vogue he did talk about an injury he had been carrying last season and there MAY? have been a recurrence of this. That's only speculation on my part.
So I don't really know what is going on but I will try and find out when the U18s start playing again in the New Year and share on here if it appropriate to do so.
