Probably not regularly, every game

but imagine how pumped he'd be from the bench every now and then. And he is good - been in every England representative team at every age group, genuinely quick, direct and can score goals.

He's nowhere near the finished article, but he's worth throwing on occasionally I'd say. Even being around the squad would be a good experience, though not every week because he needs to play U21 games too.
