Late developer young Jake, deemed too small at 16 for the Irish team. Very similar progression to Seamus Coleman Only capped at under 21 level. Wasn't at Cork City long before he went to Palace for 60k, backed himself by turning down a new contract at Palace. Moved to Lyon and his transfer fee went up X17 in the space of a season.... Also diabetic..
I wouldn't expect him to start ahead of Tarky or JB but Dyche has gone with a back 5 on occasions.

Too small at 16 and now 6'6 :o

Thats some growth spurt.

Give him #4

Prefer LCB 4 & RCB 5 ;)

Yeah involved in a local youth side that had Adam Idah, Tyriek Wright and another that escapes me, they all got international selection at 16 and moves across the water.

He's far from the finished article but very good potential, similar attributes to Branthwaite
