So who out of the returning loanees do you think will get a place in the squad? I didn't see Tuanzebe at Villa, how did he do?

From what I saw of TFM, I think another loan would do him good. A stop start season at United wouldn't be great for his development. I'm sure another Prem club would take him.

I seen Pereira a hand full of times and I'm hopping he gets a place in the squad. If we let him go I think we'd regret in fairly quickly.

I'm starting to think that if they go on loan they have gone from the club. I'm still waiting for Wilson, Powell, CBJ, etc.

I really hope to see TFM, Tuanzebe and Pereira but I just think that if they were fancied they would be in McTominay's shoes. I really really like TFM as well.

We have too much money if you are looking at it from a youth perspective. I'd love to be wrong about this, but when was the last time a loanee came back and had a first time shout, genuine question?

That’s true but beast is right who else comes back and makes it, and I’m surprised Jesse did if it was down to half the fans on here even when he did come back he’s not good enough unless we signed him as a Madrid flop.

Stevie - Haha overlooked the most blatant example.

BigPoppa - that's true, I was one of them saying he wasn't good enough to be honest, but he certainly lifted his game. I still don't honestly think he is good enough to be a regular first team starter for a team intending to win leagues and the Big cup, as he doesn't do enough often enough. Although I hate the term he is a genuine quality squad player. We have too many people that are classed as 'squad players' when all they seem to do is take up a number and contribute almost nothing. Rather see those kids given a chance than the likes of Blind and Darmian getting filler games.

I suppose Foden staying at City backs up my point as well, if they are good enough the club will want to keep them around the place, get them used to the standards expected. Very rarely will a loanee benefit from the experience and force themselves into the first team nowadays, there are exceptions but on the whole a loan out is practically a one way ticket.
