00:00I think for Luka, I think he just turned 20 in September, he's a baby in a sense of age.
00:07He's also very, very young in game time, in what he's played.
00:12I think he played 15 games last year before that, didn't play much football.
00:16He's coming off the back of a very long injury and now he's probably going into a division
00:21where the game dynamics and what's asked of him is probably very different to what it was last year.
00:25Last year, probably a game in the Premier League for Luka where it was big spaces,
00:32there was a lot of space, it was maybe a bit more counter-attacking.
00:35This year is very, very different and it's probably different for him as well.
00:39I've been very, very pleased with him in terms of how he's adapting,
00:43certainly how he's listening in their moments.
00:46But look, Luka's an incredible talent and he's got masses of potential
00:52and we all recognise that and we all see that.
00:55But at the same time, there's still loads and loads of work to be done
00:58and Luka will recognise that as well.
01:00So, I think he's showed elements over the last two games, which are everything we're asking of him.
01:06And like I said, the boy's got huge, huge quality.
01:10But again, with being so young, like Luka is, there's parts of the game
01:14which only in game and only training you can adapt game or certainly improve on that.
01:20And that's where Luka is at his young age, really.
