Has gone to Barnsely on loan. Initially for one month which I always find slightly strange. What are your thoughts? Haven't seen too much of this guy but have heard great things about him. I do remember him having a good game against Roma. Every time i've watched him in the under 21s he has looked decent but iv learnt over the years that that isn't too strong an indicator

Always thought he looked class but seems to pick up a lot of injuries which is a worry.
A good test for him in a struggling Championship team.

A good prospect but would be happier to see him loaned out for rest of season to see how / if he delivers.

They do 1 month then if it works it will be extended

He's been good for us IMO the loan will tell us much more about him but I agree that with young players you are never sure they'll make it until they do.

A future certainty in a Red shirt if he keeps up his development. I have always been impressed by his commitment on the field; he never gives up. If he is at Barnsley for the rest of the season then, good. I can't see him breaking into the first team, so experience in the championship will stand him in good stead.

Very similar playing style to Glen Johnson, if he carries on progressing he's a ready made replacement.

I hope he's good or this board is going to get WUMed

I think the Barnsley fans have a gem, look after him and check in to let us know how he gets on...
