He is just back from his latest injury and in training.
Yeah, I think Mad Gav said 'back running on grass' so I guess he's out for a while yet. I can't even remember his position - left back? If so I suppose Tomlinson signing backs up that he's not near.

He could be, just an unknown. Forget the "highly rated", we've had both results from them!
Might be a strange thing to say, but I would probably have more confidence at this level with someone who is highly rated by a Championship club v. someone highly rated by a PL club. The latter seem to generally be technically brilliant but lightweight and a bit clueless unless someone is telling them exactly what to do. As said previously I suspect Haaland would be a shadow of the player he is if he had come through a highly drilled technical and rigid PL academy.

Agreed horlock - I also think in the past we just had a few that played u23 football and didn't quite adjust to EFL football - play to win.
But we've also had a fair few that did. Clayton this year straight on it for example.

I have heard alternately end of Feb and early March.

I didn't realize we signed an injured player? Has to be end of Feb surely. If its end of March it means he is here for 1 month? Subject to the deal being made permanent of course.

Could always have been a tactical injury at Peterborough....

Hmmm tactical injury at Posh then, excellent.

It would have been a bit odd to use a loan signing on an injured player, maybe he had hurt feelings at Posh.

As Morris is a graduate of the Hoddle era do you think he's ever set up with a sweeper? Could Lavinier play that position between Clayton and FBT.
Hutton and Tomlinson as wing backs. Cain and Kahn in the middle. Williams in the hole behind Austin and one of Jephcott, Wakeling or RHM
Yes I've never really moved on from the Ardiles and Hoddle era really.

Love how your signature is 'never go back' I wouldn't have imagined Lavinier as a sweeper - I tend to think of them as technically gifted midfielders generally (Hoddle, Miglioranzi, etc), but Nathan Thompson sort of did that role - he certainly carried the ball a long way out of defence, anyway, and he was/if a full back. Stranger things have happened.
