    He did alright in league one with Bolton last year but he’s 21 and not knocking on the door yet, let alone kicking it down currently.

    He’ll have a decent career and will work his way up to a Championship/bottom half EPL team over the years I’d imagine, earn a decent amount and retire with a good amount of caps for Ireland.

    But this is where I blame EH. He's clearly good enough but will deteriorate. We've had plenty of youngsters like that over the years. He could easily be our current left back. Sadly EH holds no trust in youth - I'm sure this is because he was burnt by signing expensive ****e youngsters from Liverpool for Bournemouth

    Or he's seen more of him and doesn't think he's up to it yet.
    Think I know what I would do if my job was the one on the line.

    Well I've seen enough of Burn to realise he's not up to it at left back. Also the comments have by EH in Murphy suggests he thinks he is up to it but ironically lacks experience

    So, he's not up to it yet as he's not played at a high enough level. Maybe send Shola an email.
    Burn brings a lot more to the table at the moment than Murphy.
