Billy Big Balls Posted 22 August 2020 Share Posted 22 August 2020 Solid move for him. League 1 last season. Championship this season. Premier league next season. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozartfox Posted 22 August 2020 Share Posted 22 August 2020 We are going to need him here. Prefer to see Matty James go out on loan. Zero point giving him a squad position. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leicester_Loyal Posted 22 August 2020 Share Posted 22 August 2020 Too early for him to start games for us regularly, needs a season on loan in the Championship playing 30+ games, this would be good. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALC Fox Posted 22 August 2020 Share Posted 22 August 2020 Could be a good move, this one. Luton will have ambitions of pushing on and not being involved in a relegation scrap this term, and having a promising young midfielder from the Premier League could be a good addition for them. It'll be a scrap for KDH at times, too. It could really help him get accustomed to the rigours of first-team football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clever Fox Posted 22 August 2020 Share Posted 22 August 2020 The right time for him to go out and gain big match experience. Good prospect for the future. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Flair Posted 22 August 2020 Share Posted 22 August 2020 On the one hand it could be worth someone like him as 5th/6th choice and playing a few European and Cup games but on the other a full season in the Championship might see his development continue further and then he's even more ready to be called upon as a first team player for 2021/22. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like energy money etc.. When you let it go it grows. When you hoard it it diminishes and weakens. Edited 22 August 2020 by SO1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're re right the Club does have a duty of care to the young players. However I'd like to see them go further and encourage the younger players take a Certificate or Degree course alongside their football studies. To be fair to the Club, Nobody that we let go as young player has come back to haunt us or carved out a strong career elsewhere. As to Dewsbury- Hall We're only letting him go out on Loan again which is the right thing to do for his development. If he can survive in the Championship then he should come back a stronger and better player for his experience. Good luck to the lad, I wish him well. Plus it brings in some welcome income for the Academy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get him down on an improved 3-4 year deal, get him out on loan to the championship next season and hopefully make £2m-3m from him next summer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the clubs youth aims are to nurture talent for all these years, find someone who has genuine promise just to sell for a paltry 2-3mil you have to question why we even bother. The reports on KDH are overwhelmingly good. Blackpool fans think he's the second coming of Paul Scholes. But because he's 22 we should write him off? Ridiculous. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
