Speaking at his post-match press conference at Selhurst Park, Ole added: “I believe he has got the chance to have a great future. Of course, he has to keep working.

”He knows we believe in him. We have great faith in him as the next Michael Carrick. I know he's young and it's not fair on kids to compare them to great players like Michael was, but he's in the same mould. He can see the game, he plays simple passes. He sees through the lines, like Scott McTominay did tonight.
