LITTLE Emanuele Morini is living up to his big reputation.
The Italian teenager, previously with Serie A giants Roma, has been restricted to reserve and youth team duties - apart from non-playing substitute appearances at Huddersfield and Grimsby - after signing a four year contract last month.
But it shouldn't be long before he is challenging for a first team place.
After scoring four out of five goals for Wanderers' Under 19s last weekend, Sam Allardyce reckons the kid is fast-tracking his way into the senior reckoning.
"He's got to carry on scoring his goals," the manager said, "but the way he is going he'll be in the first team picture earlier than I thought. I just can't ignore him.
"Sooner rather than later, I'm going to have to see what he can do and whether he can cope at first team level."
