Walsall youngster Rico Browne backed to be "one of the best" right-backs in League Two

Browne has come in from the cold since Byfield took interim charge and has helped Walsall keep back-to-back clean sheets against Crewe Alexandra and Cambridge United respectively since switching to full-back. 

The 22-year-old was forced off with a knock in the second half during their 3-0 victory at Crewe, but recovered to play 90 minutes in their goalless draw with Cambridge on Tuesday. 

He had previously not started in the league since a 2-0 defeat at the U's on New Year's Day, but Byfield has been glowing in his praise of the youngster.
