Why does he have to go to Scotland ? He’d get games in the championship for a lot of clubs. 

You could see someone like Oxford utd being interested. They don't seem to have a settled left winger and have a good chance of staying in the league if they recruit well in January. He definitely does need significant pitch time. League One would be another option for him. Bristol Rovers were good for Coburn and I assume we have good connections there with them. Bilongo is doing ok there.

Relatedly, looks like Silvera is failing at Portsmouth. Seems like Hemming has been replaced at Leyton Orient as well. Looks like Coburn is our only loan out who is developing well. Hannah seems to be doing ok in Scotland but Agyemang and Willis don't seem to be making the grade.

What helped was Burgzorg.

His positioning and physical presence was a menace and he often got close to ELL to form a 2.

Djiksteel also continues to show he is the best right back, and on the showing today Ayling is arguably the best option at left back.

I said before, and with my initial lineups we needed more balance, pace and power. The front 3 of Burgzorg, ELL and Doak is our most expansive.

This isn't to say I don't rate McGree, I do. But for me, until Bangura comes back and VDB, that's close to our strongest 11 that started today imo.

You were calling him, and the rest of our recruitment, a "plodder" just last week. He's looked barely competent up to yesterday.

One decent game, against terrible opposition playing the worst tactics possible against us, and suddenly he's "a menace".

I didn’t watch the game as I thought it was a 3pm kick off lol 

But my word, wow. Some threat goals and nice to see is trying something different from corners too. Doak compliments that right hand side so well. We finally have an outlet that isn’t just lath and it’s creating so much more space for us to operate in. 

Laths goal was sublime and Azaz’s was a pearler. 
 

Now let’s sustain it!!

He looked good in the Leeds game in the Cup that many seem to have forgotten.

Unlike say Azaz as an example he hasn't been persevered with and only getting cameo appearances (usually when we have been chasing a game from memory) which doesn't help any player in terms of consistency and understanding. Granted that may have been on him as much as Carrick but whatever the background story he showed yesterday that he can be a real threat and a "team player", which I think was possibly his main problem rather than his ability.

With regard to the young lads I wouldn’t pay too much attention to performances when out on loan.  There’s more to the loan experience than just performances.

Hackney is a prime example.

Whilst everyone won. None of them played well. Shef Utd scraped thru, WBA and Burnley the same.

If we have indeed kicked  Those that predicted top 2 aren't delusional. Just need consistency. Our next 3 are winnable. 7 points minimum and we will be right in the mix looking at all the corresponding fixtures. 

🤞
