I think getting him back gives us a low cost alternative (to U21s) and maybe allow funds to be spent on the defence though equally it could be he is back to be sold to add to funds and take someone off the wage bill. The fact that directors were said to be involved would tend to indicate the decision is about money not football.
Personally think he is very skilful but not enough end product, maybe 5 games in January could be make or break for him.

'Make or break him in 5 games' couldn't be further removed from the clubs ethos if it tried.

I like him, he can definitely fit into the RDZ style of play..... good skills.

Exactly, Thessaloniki are interested apparently - loan players can come and go outside the window so it’s not time sensitive in that sense which is what I meant but yes, we need to sort something out for January - I would have thought it would be quite a good option - surely he’s good enough to slot in for a few matches then at least if he’s not good enough to come back in to RDZ’s side for the rest of the season, it would mean we are not forking out for a winger we don’t need.
Poland (Lech Poznan - Moder’s ex team?), Croatia and Sweden all have late windows too ( we already have a contact with AIK because of Ayari - maybe that’s a possibility? ). Not many options admittedly but some.

I think his Ipswich loan will be confirmed this morning.
We must replace March asap by the way. He might not be back until the 25/26 season if he has the same recovery as Moder.
Are you sure about that? I thought emergency loans outside the window were scrapped years ago.

I do fear that all this talk of planning etc is a rich when the execution of transfers is so poor. Surely we could have had some business lined up (ala Pedro) ahead of the window.
We only got Pedro when we did as he had a PL release clause that became active the moment Watford mathematically couldn’t get promoted
That's an odd take seeing as we're widely seen as the transfer kings. Most clubs would love to do the business we do.
Getting deals done early isn't easy unless the selling club are desperate to offload a player or the bid is way too good to turn down.

I expect RDZ is ringing Tone and Paul every 2mins 
He seemed a lot happier last night so maybe he thinks/knows stuff is happening in the background.I expect RDZ is ringing Tone and Paul every 2mins

Whilst I am happy no rival team seems to sniffing around any of our players at the moment, the lack of any rumours at all is boring.
I demand action!

These aren't the players you're looking for.

No rumours? In the past month we've been linked with Valentin Barco from Boca Juniors, Crysencio Summerville from Leeds United, Juanlu Sanchez from Sevilla, Wesley Franca from Flamengo, Sam Iling-Junior from Juventus and Agustín Ruberto from River Plate.
Any 2 of those would be very nice.

And of course, we won’t get any of those, but will suddenly sign a 18 year old from Peru that nobody has heard of. It’s how we operate.
Urso Paddington, 18 year-old left back/winger from Naranja Mermelada. You heard it here first.
