This is a kid who turned down Man City to sign a contract with City and scored thirty goals in a season at Academy level while not playing as a striker. He signed his first pro deal with us and ended up further away from the first team at the end of it than he was at the age of 16. To be fair to the club, he was injured for about three months at the start of the season after the one he scored all of those goals in, but, that apart, City showed their usual ineptitude at handling the transition of very good Academy players into first team footballers - they got what they deserved when Spence turned them down last summer.
