You can see with Pitman the football brain is still there it's just the legs are letting him down.

Twine was spraying the ball around everywhere in the first half. Again, vision and execution was spot on and he was the creative energy in an otherwise sub-par midfield. Created less in the second half but did his defensive duties well too. Only negative is that he goes down too quickly.

We know he isn't quite physical enough for this level but do you think it might be (in part) because he's being primed for a future move further up the pyramid?

It's my thinking that higher up the divisions a player goes the less physical the game generally becomes and officials tend to give free kicks more for what would be perceived as less.

Twine has the technical ability to develop and play higher up. Any club higher up would be looking at him as a longer term project. Managed well, I don't think he needs a huge amount of bulking up - look at Dele Alli and Son as examples of similar build technical players/wizards.
