The confidence thing is a key point.his next loan move should be top end Championship
I'd of course like to see him tested at PL level but I think sometimes its better for confidence and development of the youngsters to be playing in a team that wins more than it loses, especially as a striker he's more likely to get chances and goals in a team pushing for promotion rather than a team fighting relegation.
If he continues to impress at that level then he would be wanted at PL level or even push for a place with us, its in his own hands as he already has the platform to showcase his talent so its up to him to produce and progress
The Hurrikane has been outstanding as a young player, and when he was pitched in for the wafer games I expected to see him tearing it up. But he was clearly a bit overawed, and looked nothing like the player that demolished Man U's youth side with such cool maturity. The boy has skill, strength, and sense, but in those games he looked a bit of a donkey to be honest - and I attribute that to the mental aspect of his youth and inexperience. I think this loan move was an excellent choice to build that confidence up again. He needs bringing through slowly and steadily, so that we don't break him.
