WHAT DOES HE NEED?

HIS defending of crosses to the back post will always be questioned by scouts. But there is no doubt he can counter his lack of height with clever timing and by not being tempted to jump too early. As he gets stronger he will also become more capable of resisting the jump of taller opponents. He needs more strength work to enable him to compete with more powerful forwards, but I like his timing when he attacks the ball. Charlton boss Karl Robinson will monitor his form but he has won a regular place in a team with a good chance of promotion to the Championship. It will be interesting to see what the future holds for him at Chelsea. At Luton he would have been flying by now and a prize asset.
