Man Utd forward, about to be sent on loan to a Championship club.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/34205418

Other sites report that he's had 20 loan offers, I wonder if one of them is from us.

He's rumored to be off to Derby but as we're top of the league you never know...

Derby, Forest or Middlesbrough. They like adding to their collection of players no one else can have

Presumably a loan whereby, if fit, he must be played? I don't think we need anything like this at the moment. Competition for places keeps players hungry and we are going very well. This may change of course, but I hope that we can avoid taking any players on loan who are guaranteed a start.

Not sure about that, heavily linked with Derby. Would they really start him consistently over Martin and Bent?

Agree with you on both. Not sure why they'd loan him out to a Championship club if he wasn't going to play.

We don't need any loan players at this time. We have a good squad, with a few(Elvis and Murphy) who still need a bit more bedding in time.
Sure it would be nice to pick up a striker who will get 20+ goals, but these kind of players rarely become available as no club with a sound mind would let a 20 goal striker out on loan

I agree with you and Icy. They'll require guaranteed game time for going out to a Championship club, and that really has got to rule Derby and Boro out. I'm a little torn as to whether we should go for him. It looks as though we've got a varied, settled and quality squad at present. But he's got two things that are extremely precious at this level: pace and finishing.

I don't think the name is anywhere near flair enough. It does not really stack up against the exotic international range of names we have signed this summer, such as Gaetan Bong, Liam Rosenior, Tomer Hemed, Bobby Zamora, Niki Maenpaa.

We need exotic names to baffle the opposition's coaching staff in their pre-match briefings.

I don't think they will HAVE to play him but to afford him they might have to.

I'm sure Aspinall last season said that a lot of loan deals now mean if you don't play them then you have to cover 100% of the players wages that week. Parent clubs only subsidise the wages when they are playing games.

Derby or Sheffield Wednesday or Middlesborough I reckon - as another said they seem to be busy hoovering up players so that other teams can't have them

We've got enough players and can't keep spending the cash for the sake of it.

No point in signing a striker, only for a winger to be injured a day later.

Save the money unless it's absolutely needed, and have a bigger cash pot in January, or the February loan window.


This loan window should really be about loans away for Chicksen, Colunga, and maybe Holla.

Wilson would be an excellent addition.
