Speaking on the Rio Presents podcast, Cole said: "When you're raw and you're 17, you have no fear. I looked at him yesterday... He's definitely got a chance.
"My nephew worked with him and my nephew said: 'Yeah man, he's got a chance'."
Former United defender Rio Ferdinand also said: "He's still rough around the edges and he should be. But what I don't have any fear about is that he will get chances.
'Because I watched him play against my two boys and the way he played yesterday was exactly the same. He's not in the game but the ball falls and he's there."
