The 18-year-old is a product of Cheltenham's centre of excellence having previously been on the books at both Chelsea and Reading as a schoolboy.[LNB]His recent breakthrough into the first team at Whaddon Road has reportedly attracted the interest of both Birmingham and Aston Villa.[LNB]Asked whether his burgeoning reputation brings its own pressure, Lewis said: "I think it gives me confidence, knowing that and hearing what other people say about you.[LNB]"It makes me want to perform better and I go out there with confidence instead of having pressure on my shoulders. But I don't like getting carried away with it. I try to keep my head down, work hard in training and do my stuff in the matches.[LNB]"I try not to let it get to me too much because then you won't succeed. I obviously like to hear it but I just get on with my job. Everyone at Cheltenham Town, all of the management staff have helped me progress as a better player and I hope it keeps on going."[LNB][LNB]
