Another product of the Crewe Alexandra youth system, the tall centre-back is calming influence to the players around him. A strong tackler, though the 16 year old may not have lightening pace, he reads the game extremely well for a young lad, resembling the likes of Sami Hyypia and Tony Adams.

Last season Billy featured for England's U16 in the International Tournament in the North-East and at the Montaigu Tournament. Was also England's skipper for the recent International Under-17 Tournament in partnership with Pepsi.
