“Alex is a real ball player,” he said earlier this season. “He uses his speed well and can go past people. He’s got a bit of everything.
“It’s the other side of the game he’s working on improving.
“Technically, he’s always been ahead of his age and physically, he’s been a bit behind it.
“If his body can play catch-up and he keeps improving he’ll be a fantastic player in the future.”
