bollocks,  we was/is a good player it was just that he has come to us at a difficult time (same as the left back from wolves last year who looked a different player pre-season for them).

He was a good lad, after the Hereford game (he was named MOTM) he came down to the restaurant to do the normal presentations and was in tears, he apologised to everyone for the team performance and said he was embarrassed to be given any award after a loss.  He was given the option not to go in (as he was in tears) but he said that would be letting people down even further!!  To be fair J.Johnson as captain or Holt should have gone with him.

Good luck to him.

He was 'ok', played very well at Barnet. Although why on earth they gave him mom in the Hereford game, not surprised the kid was embarrassed!

He was not the player we needed at the time. Although Im sure in time to come he will turn into a very decent player.

Still remember him leaping out of the dugout and going mental at Barnet after Tozer's winner. Grin A good lad, a good player and one that I wouldn't be adverse to seeing return so long as he's played alongside someone a little bit more experienced in the middle of the park, like Niven.

GJ needs to really assess his policy of signing kids with no games under their belts..

What precisely did we get out of this exercise? Looking outside in, all it did was ensure that our own contracted players in that position didn't get a game. The old saying, only bringing in players that are better than what we've already got...needs to be remembered!

Absolutely not - he was superb at Barnet, worked hard in the Hereford game and obviously really cared about what was happening on the pitch while he was warming up on Saturday. I think he'll go on to be a really good player, but he was just not the player we needed at the time...which someone might have been able to spot before signing him, if he'd been watched properly...

I'm pretty sure Craig King and Ryan Jarvis were worse...

Yeah seems like a really good lad, good attitute, and I expect he'll go on to have a very bright future in the game. I'm in agreement that he probably came in at the wrong time and with GJ looking to keep to the 4-4-2 shape, his chances of playing beyond the initial month would've been limited. Good luck to him back at MK.

Yeah the loanee's brought in lately do seem to be a case of trial and error, bringing in Berahino over Jackson was definitely a step in the right direction though.

As most people have stated , I think he will be a good player but he's not yet ready ,physically, for League 2. He gave it his best shot and you can't ask for more from a young loanee.

What do you mean? He walked the POTS vote for the Bradford game.

I think he could have a big future to be fair. As has been mentioned he had a big heart to go with that quality and threw himself into the task. I liked him a lot. I thought I was on my own actually, but clearly not.

This is spot on, i remember in the first half at Hereford he chased an almost dead though ball and the look off commitment and determination on his face to get to it. If half our team put in the effort he did and lost I wouldt mind.  Clearly played with passion, and was a good footballer. I wish him all the best!!!!

As for worst loan signing ever....Ryan Jarvis remember him?
