“They’re both young still, both only 18 or 19 the pair of them, and they’ve done really well. I’m delighted with them."Kenlock was picked up by The Tractor Boys in 2014 and began training with the U21s, aged just 17.Myles made his competitive debut against Stevenage this season in the first round of the Capital One Cup and was on the bench at Old Trafford when Ipswich were beaten by Manchester United in round three.Picture: www.stephenwaller.com
