Some of the young talent we've got on the books really is astounding. We could put out 10 outfield players under 23 and be fairly competitive:

 

Chilwell

Benkovic

Soyuncu

Amartey

 

Ndidi

Choudhury

 

Barnes

Maddison

Gray

 

Iheanacho

You don’t win anything with kids :P

With two potential replacements for Morgan = to certain disappointments when they dont get in.

A third would then be a greater disappointment.

 

Morgan isn't the sole problem but we've got to replace him soon anyway. He's probably the best captain on the pitch and a good defender if not a good ball playing defender but I don't know why we persist with him tbh. Probably shouldn't have given up on Evans so quickly.

Can’t recall players on loan from abroad - well Scotland isn’t abroad. But basically loan deals which involve a FA to another international FA. No recall allowed - must be for the spell stated unless the loaning club want to exit the deal. 

Interesting. Someone had better tell Benkovic as he has been quoted he could be recalled in January??

The powers at Leicester spunked 30 mill on an Algerian striker a couple of years ago. They're not too bright. Send one Croat back they'll be none the wiser.

Not wrong is it.

If we do recall him and Barnes from playing first team football elsewhere it's got to be because they are in serious contention for a first team place.

 

We did this to Barnes last year, gave him game time with the 2nd eleven in the cup and a couple of appearances as sub. He would have been better off staying at Barnsley IMO.

Something strange happened at Barnsley though, they went from lower mid-table and winning the odd game handsomely up until December to then be bought by new owners around the same month, after that Barnes(one of their standout players) didn't get picked for the first XI again and we called him back, Barnsley ended up getting relegated.

 

The odd thing was our decision making, a player can't play (be registered to play) for more than 2 teams a season, loan or not. So he came back in January and we immediately took away his chance of playing 1st team football every week for another 7months after we played him for 20mins in the Cup and didn't use him beyond u23s again rest of that season.

 

I'm delighted Harvey's playing every week, the performances are a bonus. If he has a storming year in the Championship he's reached the level we hold Maddison and hopefully he can come back held in the same regard & get more game time.
