He seems to have some of that mental sharpness, determination or "grit" that Smalling and Evans lack. Both of the former were arguably more talented. But thats only a minor part of the puzzle.
Considering his age (soon 24) he has not achieved much, but he was obviously a late developer. I'm not sure whether he actually is Man Utd-quality (not seen enough of Burnley), but I'm sure Mourinho would love to have a player with his mentality in the squad.
Its annoying that we dont use buy-back clauses when selling these young talents. "Luckily" Michael Keanes contract is up in 2018. Could turn out to be a good investment. Would hate to see him at a rival club.
