Played for England 16 and 17, I'd say that's decent


Exactly this. We’ve signed 2 England youth international players. It’s not like they are from some footballing 3rd world country like the Faroe Islands, Malta or wales

Because, for some, if they haven’t heard of a player they can’t possibly be any good…you copulated the narrative…

Can only see how he plays cant we

Weve had a few from burnley u23s in recent years havnt we or was it just glennon


Jordan Cropper was with Burnley too. If you look at who we've had from them, Glennon has been good for us, I thought Josh Benson was a tidy footballer and Cropper isn't the worst right back we've had even if I don't personally hold him in the same regard as Glennon.

If this lad comes in with similar pedigree then I think he'll offer us something and do well. Very excited to see him play, just trying to dampen expectation as it would be hugely unfair to pin inflated ambitions on a 19 year old.

Burnley supporters really rate him and like you say Glennon, Cropper and Benson have all looked decent.

Burnley fan who closely follows our U21s here.

I clipped all of Lewis' touches (good, bad and everything inbetween) from the (poor quality) stream Reading provided on YouTube of our recent U21 game against them. It should give you an idea of what to expect from him.

1st Half

2nd Half
[url]https://twitter.com/claretmatt87/status/1559924186763739137?t=sgGbJtVY6G_gLXzHF7Buxw&s=19[/url]

2nd half is in the twitter thread.

Lewis Richardson is more highly thought within the club than Glennon and Benson were when we loaned them to you. Hopefully he will be even more successful than they were.

Only question marks around him are how he'll adjust to the physicality of senior football and his injury record IMO. Can occasionally be a little greedy too.

Thank you, very interesting. The lad gets stuck in, has pace and is not afraid to take people on. Great stuff.

Hey!  Being part-Welsh I take offence to that.  The Faroe Islands produce some fantastic players considering their population and location, you leave them alone....
