Did well when he came on in the last game of last season but haven't heard anything about him this season. Is he injured... as well? |  |

He'd been playing well for the U23s but has missed the last few games.
I'd heard he wanted out of ITFC recently (Presumably one PH doesn't rate and needs to kick start career), and had been on trial at Aldershot - but not sure whether that was with a view to a loan or a loan to permanent move. |  |

Had been one of the better (more consistent) performers for the U23's last season.
But at 21, perhaps he is viewed as someone who needs to be pushing a lot closer to the 1st team or to be offloaded in the near future. The (relative) safety of being in the U23 squad can't last forever as there will always be younger players moving through the system behind |  | | |

I was surprised he got another deal in the summer. |  |

I thought he looked quite decent in the U23 game I've seen this season. He was being treated as a bit of a John O'Shea though and never cemented a position. I'd still think he'd be great as a utility player. |  | | |

I was, but if you speak to coaches there he is seen as a very late developer - almost like Jesse Lingard at United where they knew he wasn't going to be ready for regular football until 22-23 but that he is a player that could blossom late.
I think he'd been the best player for 23s through pre season, Lankester aside, and that he has a future in the game - but can see that at 21 he is seen as too old to make an impact now. But there is a decent dependable and versatile player in there - in days gone by he'd have been Reserve team captain until he was 25 playing the 50 games over 6 years for the 1st team | |

Your description of reserve term stalwarts made me think of Wayne Brown, so I looked him up - turns out he almost exactly fits that model. 40 league appearances in 5 years.
Shame really as I always thought he was excellent when he played. Mind you I was 12 when he left. |  |

Neil and David Gregory were both a bit similar too. |  | | |
