No Braybrooke amongst this is a shame. Really hope we can get him a loan to League One or Two and he can make an impact. I'm not giving up on him yet.

Will be genuinely gutting if he’s one that just doesn’t quite make it.

 

Seems a life time ago that I was giving it the full works to my inlaws (all Spurs) that we literally had the younger, potentially better version of Luca Modric.

 

I was drunk more often than not back then but I did truly believe it

I still find it mad Braybrooke & Alves both had the same serious injury in the space of 10 days.

 

Although Alves was more of an assault.

On the table next to Page's ready for them to sign when they're happy to.

He could be a late bloomer - he always seems such a small lad to me and i dont know if physicality is the issue. 

 

Thing is, with 16/17 year olds looking like they are ready and ahead of him, and rumours of more coming, can we afford to wait anymore?

Braybrooke needs to have a successful loan where he plays at least 30+ games this season

Hoping to see a couple loaned out towards end of the week with league 1/2 starting Saturday.

I suspect Silko Thomas, Wanya Marcal, Braybrooke, Richards and Joseph are the obvious ones. Possibly Logan Briggs too.

Didn't realise Jayden Joseph was 19. If he is not having a serious involvement in the first team he should definitely go on loan.

i think if we got a reasonable bid for Wanya we might let him go in all honesty, has a year left on his deal

Time we shifted Wanya on permanently, I don’t think he will ever make the grade here.

 

loans for the rest you mention, apart from Joseph who I think is versatile enough to be a squad member, as long as we shift enough out the door first.

 

I’d add Golding to that list for going out on loan too.

Frustrating with how poor our loaning of young players is. We could've easily made some decent money here if he'd had that successful period whilst out on loan.

I was always surprised Maswanhise never got a loan

We offered him a new deal didn’t we? Sure someone said he played for u21s at brackley the other day.

Sure I’ll see him play this season, try to go a few times to watch them.

 

When it was mentioned yesterday thought it might be them as they lost Burrell to QPR

 I keep seeing this type of comment. When are people going to realise that it ain't happening?

Oh I completely agree….talking of an ideal scenario here.
