Surely this thread was on everyone's Transfer Window bingo cards?
Yep. I had it, immediately above 'Ulloa spotted in Hove. Loan move?'
I just need 'Solly March to Saints' for a vertical line.

Can't help thinking he'll just be another one of the fêted Chelsea & Arsenal wunderkinds who bob around the Championship on loan forever then disappear into obscurity.

Christ on a bike.
Why don't we just exhume van Hooijdonk and Diouf as well so we can **** the team spirit entirely.
Who knows? It staggers me what kids like him earn though, if the media reports are to be believed (yes, I know).
This report suggests he's on £32k per week at Chelsea. I can't help feeling there's not a lot of incentive for young players to really get their heads down and focus when they collect that sort of salary whilst still in their teens. He's not even a first team regular!

Yep. He's not played for about a year.
Jesse Lingard is exception here in terms of teen loanees going out to Champ and then back (eventually) into Prem League (and England) first team contention mind.
Are there any recent others ?
Define recent.
Harry Kane has done okay.

Villa are trying to move McCormack on, he would do nicely.
Source? If true he'd be exactly the striker we need in my opinion. I remember some shite site saying we were gonna pay £10mil for him in the Summer though m
Edit - a Twitter search suggests Wolves & Fulham interested - best source possibly 'Derby telegraph'. Wonder if Villa would let him go though, having paid so much for him...
Chelsea have recalled him from Burnley today.
On way to championship according to papers.
For once I agree Enrest. One of those players who, although only 23, seems to have been around for ever. Goes from club to club without really making an impact.
I'm luke warm about a loan move, but no way should we pay any money for him.
I forget which club but he got over 20 goals in the Championship for someone didn't he?
His top scoring according according to soccerbase is 19 for Middlesbo from 38 games in season 14./15
Since tghen he hsnt scored a goal at either Palace Norwich oir Burnley but only made 19 suib appearances total and no starts.
'Cos he's rubbish
Whilst you may be right, of course, the fact that he did score many goals in one championship season, suggest that he DOES have talent and might just need the right team,surroundings and careful management to get the best out of him. Might be worth a loan. know any club that fits the bill?
