Loaned-Out Players

Who would you play him ahead of? Sarr? Eze? It’s a stretch to say he’s better than what we have when he has no Premier League pedigree and has performed fine but not outstandingly at Championship level.

Once we get past Eze (injured), Sarr (poor record), Nketiah (not a wide player), then we have Schlupp (clearly unfit) and Agbinone (who knows), Rak-Sakyi would walk into our squad. Probably wouldn't start if Eze and Sarr are fit but, frankly, would probably be better than Nketiah or Schlupp out wide.

From what we hear he was offered the chance to fight for a first team squad place but decided to go on loan instead. So sounds like OG wanted to do what you are suggesting but the player wanted more guaranteed game team.

Fair enough, I heard rumours of a few things. If we don't strengthen our wide areas, I wonder if we will, or can, recall in January? Unless Nketiah suddenly becomes an inside forward.

My understanding is that JRS can be recalled in January.

While it would be beneficial to have him as another option, I think it would be clutching at straws to think he will make a huge amount of difference much as I would like him to.

I also question how happy he would be to come back then as he apparently wanted out permanently in the summer.
 
Just to add JRS is 22. If was going to make it at Premier League level he probably would have done so by now. We have seen players develop later but it is increasingly rare. I expect he will be a player who makes his career in the Championship or League 1

I remember watching us lose 0-1 in freezing temperatures in a half-empty SP, in what I think was the last time we played them. Some guy shouting c**t every few minutes. The good old days.

You saying that reminds me of the only home game I missed the season we got promoted in 2004/05……6-3 win against Stoke 🤪
