And he backs himself, assistant Glynn Snodin and the more experienced Spireites to help the former Everton prospect develop.
“Another one at a good age, a lot to learn, hasn’t played a lot of football but there’s something about him,” said the Town boss.
“I like the way he trains, his attitude.
“He wants to win all the time. He trains properly.
“He’s got a lot of desire to improve.
“There’s lot of things in his game he wants to be better at.”
“Myself, Glynn and the people around him will improve him.”
