Isaac Osbourne has a good future in the game according to City boss Iain Dowie. The twenty year old will make history on Saturday when he becomes the first young player to consecutively be awarded the Sky Blue Trust Young Player Of The Year award.

Said Iain Dowie to the CT; "Isaac is coming on all the time and he will play on Saturday,without question. As to where,we'll have to wait and see. "He's on a good little run - his form has been excellent. I thought he did very well on Saturday, but then again he was outstanding at Derby when he played wide right.

"I think central midfield will ultimately be his position, but he's very versatile. He can play wide midfield,right back or almost anywhere. "He is powerful - as strong as an ox and a good passer. We are trying to develop his game,make him confident on the ball,but he is very mature for his age and has a great team ethic."
