I watched a lot of him at Leyton Orient. He's talented and has that cutting edge in passing and finishing (and make no mistake, I loved watching him play) but you could just see its all happening a bit slower than your top class 10s. Like the first 5 yards of speed, the half turns, and getting away from an opponent. That sounds harsh but its the reality. Maybe that's what's been seen. Wouldn't need a huge amount of data to be able to surface that + the eye test.
RDZ isnt going to want to lose a season developing a 10 when he has Madders, Deki and Simons.....although you look at the seriousness of their injuries....
Actually just read a couple of replies on that thread from Oxford fans - "Not mobile", "Inventive but lacks speed of thought", "league one player at best". I actually think he could go well in a good championship team but wouldn't be near to a prem top 10 team imo.
