The defender has bagged three goals this season but has underwhelmed in recent weeks.

O'Neil was full of praise for the 23-year-old, but has highlighted some areas they are working with him on.

"He can play anywhere on the pitch with the quality that he has and we're working with him at the moment on his decision-making because he's unbelievably brave," O'Neil said.

"He takes the ball in some tight areas and he tries his best to look after it. Sometimes he slows the game down a bit which we've spoken to him about, trying to make the right call when we're out and when we need to go to the goal fast and when we're not and then you can take your time and we can rebuild.
