I know there is a big difference between under 18s and the championship but he had something very special about him.
What would happen in that exciting scenario, he would break into the first team. And end up watching a 36 year old managers favourite not contribute much but play ahead of him. After 12 months of sitting in a bench he would slowly start to go backwards. Lose alot of confidence. Be played in a dead rubber final home game. Play well, score and then spend the next 12 months sitting on the bench watching another journeyman at 35 play instead.
