He played 254 minutes at 17 years old. Come on. Give the lad a chance.
He was playing for England. He obviously wasn't sh1t. Even if he didn't look the best in the very limited chance he got. He's took.his chance at Swansea and there's been PL interest. Barely got a chance with us.
Mental how people want to give players like Engel a full season of matches despite him being garbage to adjust to the culture and see if he improves at 25 years old but can't wait to write off a 17 year old England school boy because he had a ropey start to his senior career.
That’s the thing though. He was 17 and wanted to be playing regularly but didn’t want to go out on loan again.
Fair enough if he was 19 like VDB and demanding regular football, but not at 17
