Loaned-Out Players

I would have liked Imray to have a chance with the first team.
He's quick with a good attacking instinct and, watching him at WBA, he has a very good long throw.
Their fans have taken to him.

It would appear that Kphora and Cardines are seen ahead of Imray, but Kphora is perpetually injured.
Cardines has just signed a new contract with the club.

One thing about a new manager is that it will be a fresh start for the players and possibly open up opportunities for one or two.
Imray must surely be ahead of those 2 based on his experience out on loan and how hes stepped up a level every time,
 

Crystal Palace loanee who's open to representing Nigeria nominated for Derby's Young POTS​


David Ozoh has been nominated for Derby County's Young Player of the Season award.

The talented tri-national midfielder, who returned to Derby County for a second loan spell last summer, has impressed during his latest stint.

He has made 31 appearances across all competitions, starting 22 of them, and found the net once.
 
i think Imray, Ozoh and Rak Sakyi all have 1 year left of their contracts and after showing they can perform in the championship will definitely have suitors.

I think we need to make a decision with all 3 and if they are not close to 1st team then sell them while we can.

Imray is almost 23 and i think JRS is already 23 so these guys need to be playing football. Both would command 7 figure transfers (JRS would have been 8 figures if we had sold him last season!).

Ozoh is younger and as a pure 6 could feature if we move back to a back 4 next season.

Perhaps we could also add Tayo to this list, as it's almost 3 years since he kicked a ball in the 1st team, and the 2 goalies too as they both are decent in div 1 but miles away from Prem level.
 
It is important for Ozoh and Imray to be given a preseason with the remains of the squad. This will allow Sage to assess their capabilities. Up to now Palace have failed to properly use the Academy as a stepping stone to the first team as was originally planned. Turning down £15m from Southampton for Rak Sakyi and failing to give O’Brien a decent trial has in effect cost the Club upwards of £20m. Ozoh has 12 Premier League appearances and given he was picked by Hodgson it says a lot about his ability. Like O’Brien, Imray has just got better as he moves up the Leagues. We mustn’t give up this opportunity.

As Willo would say: "we are birds on the same twig on this matter." Ozoh may end up going to Derby but hopefully not before Sage has had a good look at him in pre-season.

I would like to see Ozoh play for us again. When he did previously I thought he was poor. Always trying to get rid of the ball rather than do something or run with the ball and attack the other team. He was generally quite lightweight. He has now had a good loan spell by all accounts so let’s see how he has improved in first team standards before we let him go.

I think out of all our loans, it’s Ozoh who could make the transition. Loads of good reports by Derby supporters about him.
