I think this is the long and short of it really.

 

Unless he can play wing-back or more centrally in a forward role, I suspect his chances are going to be limited. Same is probably true for Ben Hughes, although I do believe he's played in a defensive role a few times, at least.

I think I remember John mentioning Ben Hughes originally playing as a fullback and being very similar to a right sided penney can play fullback or wing. So wingback could be ideal for him.

That’s correct, although we now have the promising Dawodu playing in that position It’s up front where we are struggling at that level

Is a bit odd that he's been promoted to the senior squad but hasn't been given a number.
Not sure what to make of that.

Didn't get a squad number. Can only assume they feel he isn't quite ready. 

Doesn't  really mean anything.Ciaran Brennan and Conor Grant didn't  get squad numbers when they were announced  but played last night.
