Coaches’ comments
Joshua is a versatile defender with a top attitude. He’s mainly a centre back who has no issue playing at right back and has experience playing on the left side also. Joshua is a tall, physical defender despite being a younger player and has great room for improvement given his age. He is aggressive in his challenges and times his tackles very well. He has good pace and tracks opposition attackers very well. On the ball, he makes good decisions and keeps possession well. He is always willing to take on board advice and this will lead to continued development on his end.
