For those who have seen a lot of Lee play, what is he like compared with your modern day keeper?
What is his kicking and distribution like? Does he dominate his area?

And most importantly (at least for one on here) how tall is he?

Looking at the pictures from yesterday he is the same height as Matt (Taylor, not Jay!) if that helps.

Pending confirmation from Arizona, he is 6ft 2in. Taller than MT. MT says as Harry Lee is only 16 he may have more height growth to come, possibly a couple more inches (I would have thought that at only 16 he might yet grow even more than that)

He is 16. If he was the finished article I think he would have signed for Chelski :)

You don’t turn a certain age and suddenly gain the skill to pass…

True but Goalies are no different to players in other positions in that as they get older and more experienced they improve. My point was he hasn't gained the experience to domiinate his area or look like a top keeper - yet.

In the televised youth games last season Arthur played for the under 18’s and Sowden played for the under 16’s.Have you actually seen Lee play to be able to give a worthwhile answer to J-G’s question?

Okay, I’ll retry. Is he a keeper that is good with his feet? Or more ‘ave it’ With his distribution?

He is very good with his feet and his distribution is excellent! Seen him play a few times over the years and certainly doesn't play like a 16 Yr old.
