Will Lankshear

[afsoc4life]

Great that he is out on loan. Needs that experience.

 

[Muttley]

I think it's good that Scarlett returns and Lanks departs.

An immediate goal for Lanks is now what is required.

 

[SpiderSpurs]

Lankshear is already twice the player that Scarlett will ever be.

 

[Chrissivad]

Only in hype.

Lankshear is already twice the player that Scarlett will ever be.

He could be but he's not now, he is a natural goal scorer and I'm confident he'll get goals given a chance to play. I hope this is the right move for him, WBA are in the running for playoffs and if they hit some form the manager might not give him that chance.

He is now.

Not looking so good for him, WBA signed Armstrong from Southampton going to be tough to get a game before him with over 300 games and over 100 goals in the bank.

Shouldn't have gone Championship. Look at Donley and Abbott. Look at Scarlett. Ffs, it's about the right fit, not the biggest club to come calling.

Depends how they play
Armstrong is brick even with his experience

 

[Yiddo]

Should have sent a couple of players to Gillingham, they are desperate for goals.

Exactly

Delap had championship loans then had to drop down to league 1 before going back to the championship.

A wasted season for Lankshear, Ange under used him after getting in a sulk at him being sent off.

Then a stupid loan instead of actually getting game time.

 

[Bullet]

Someone like Andy Scoulding does the loans, right?

Yeah because obviously Spurs knew WBA were going to loan an other striker on deadline day, wouldn't be great if we all had foresight or esp like the experts on the internet

Think we should have in the deal that if he plays we pay all his wages. If he doesn't they do. If he comes on as sub we pay part.

TBH I didn't even know about the other striker. Historically, our loans to Championship sides generally haven't worked out, as the clubs are less likely to take the risk/less likely to have technically poorer players. The loans are for the physical experience, rather than the level of football IMO. If our players don't play, it's a waste of time, especially regarding the players path of development.

That's a massive gateway to corruption, if you could determine a third party's team selection based on financial levers.

See how he gets on. If he shows his much higher calibre in training, he'll hopefully get the starting bearth. McAtee saw off lots of journeymen competitors to get his championship minutes.
