A goalkeeper with excellent reflexes and distribution skills, Josh finally received his first taste of U18 action last season after being named on the bench at that level on several occasions whilst still a schoolboy.
In all, he made 16 starts for the U18s and, although he demonstrated that there are still aspects of his game which require improvement, he underlined his potential with some impressive saves. He should be the undisputed first-choice custodian at that level this time around, whilst he will also be hoping to break into the U21 squad on a regular basis, having made his debut against Wolverhampton Wanderers towards the end of the campaign.
The youngster also made the bench in the NextGen Series and the FA Youth Cup and could feature in both competitions during 2013/14.
Great game against Villa 3 world class saves good all round talent one for the future look out for him
I agree with above comment great talent for the future good hands and quick feet,wish josh all the best.
