A talented 17-year old RB who is becoming a big part of a strong defense that is working its way through the academy.

It’s refreshing to see good young defenders coming through, been a while. Although Mengi & Laird might go on to have good careers if they stay healthy.

Who knows if any of Kamason, Munro & Amass will eventually become regulars here, but they’re probably the biggest reason to our U18s having a brilliant season so far.

Kamason has unfortunately had some injury issues and missed around 50% of both last season and the current one. Really hope he stays fit as he’s developing very nicely at the moment.

Compared to the RB competition at the club in Ogunneye and Nolan, he’s much more adventurous going forward, very tidy running at full speed with the ball at his feet and offers overlap/underlap with his runs all the way into the box consistently.

It’s not a coincidence that we score a lot of goals building from our right with him and/or McAllister offering passing angles with their runs or dribbling and providing the end product themselves.

Accurate passer too and it’s nice to see him always opting for a forward pass if possible.

Defending-wise I still see a lot of room for improvement in terms of positioning and decision making, but the tactical details of the game are very much things you can develop with good coaching. And it’s not like he makes many mistakes in defense either as he’s quite composed out of possession too.

He’s a bit skinny, but there’s no reason he couldn’t become similar to say AWB in terms of physique as long as he keeps working on it.

Signed professional terms in December and has represented England on U16 level.

Really liked his pass to set McAllister away on the run for the first goal. A few times I've seen him pick out a good pass

He had a really good game yesterday - maybe MOTM. If I am not quite mistaken, he got 2 assists (one of Biancheris goals + Ashton Missins goal)
 
I’m really pleased to see his recent good performances and as the OP mentioned his positive attributes are coming to the fore. He has a really nice short passing game and I wouldn’t be surprised if like Wan Bissaka he was formerly a winger.

He can get caught out when pushing forward but he has missed a few games through injury so still finding his season peak. And oblivious still young and learning.
 
A monster performance today, especially in the first half (like the rest of the team).

He’s impressed me a lot this season I must say.
 
Really kicked on attacking wise from last season and seems to have developed some fight in one on one duels. We have some good full backs going forward in him and Plunkett.
 
An agile full back who can pass, cross, cut inside + provide fantastic assists? Don't think that's United first team material tbh.

Is he always this good or did he just play out of his skin yesterday? I don't remember ever seeing much hype about him before and while I never felt he was a weak link in the team, I also never considered that he was promising enough to have a career at the club beyond the academy.
 
He was absolutely phenomenal yesterday
 
I was really impressed with him one match I saw earlier this season, so not just last night. He's a very good player.
 
His delivery from the right has really stood out in the last two or three games.
 
Funny that I think he might be better suited to WB than FB. He seems to thrive more when he has the freedom license to do whatever he wanna pull, whilst might lack a bit of unpredictability and technical security to be a winger.
 
Give him some 1st team football. I really want to see another player other than Dalot.
 
I only caught the end of the second half and extra time but he looked quite good. Strong runner and great finish for the goal.
 
He is exactly what Amorim wants from his wing backs- powerful runner, physical and always looking forwards! Got to be given minutes for us after that performance given how atrocious Dalot is

He's too raw atm, some very loose touches and turns.

That only really happened later in the game and in extra time which was to be expected given how tired he must have been! Didn’t give the ball away at all before that

I was going to say this guy should be taken with ease, no need to rush. But then I realized its an opportunity to displace Dalot - now that's exciting.
