First saw this lad in a pre season friendly at Cambridge United couple of seasons ago and was not impressed especially with his lack of pace. But how wrong i was to doubt his ability. He seems to have gained a yard of pace and looks far more assured on the ball. He can only get better with more games under his belt. Give Cook credit for thrusting him into a tough game for his league debut. All goes to prove work hard in training and do the business and you will get your chance.
