Personally, I think he needs to be playing.

It doesn't look like that's going to happen at Boro, and I don't realistically see that happening at Spurs no matter how many games we have.

This is/was an important season for Milos, he needed a loan which got him a lot of game time and something for Poch to take note of.

This hasn't worked out so far, so another Championship loan would be ideal imo.

Or bring him back and loan Dier out to a Premier League team.

Agree he needs to be pulled from his Boro loan with all statements that injured players are coming back.

Could we loan to Brentford again? Maybe Warburton saw some of MV during the NextGen series?

Additionally with the latest in ITK and general knowledge of football we have we clearly are not going to be able to shift the players we need, so he will not get a chance this season unless Poch just decides to play him ahead of others, which is unliekly.

I'm stumped tbh

They're looking fairly comprehensive as a squad from what I've seen. Really bad news for Milos overall. A team like Fulham would do well to get him in, shipping goals like it's going out of fashion, so he could act as a defensive lynchpin or centre back for them. Brentford would be ideal but they're looking solid.

As crazy as this sounds I rather bring him back, our defensive midfield's are pretty useless at offering protection at the moment

If we don't get Schneiderlin, I would try Milos there and see how he works out. Sheffield could be a good starting point. He isn't the finished article but he does have what we are missing. Good awareness, positioning and tackling plus he knows how to kick a ball

O I agree. Was talking about Bentaleb going AfCon and with Mason looking injured who I'd bring in. Capoue, Paulinho and Dembele almost didnt' enter my mind. I would rather bring back MV and give him a chance there.

He has everything you stated and is probably as good if not a better passer than the 3 above, and with his orignal postion being a CB he has a naturalish instinct to track a man. Would happily see him get games

I'd bring this kid back in Jan and give him a shot at DM.

I would like it as well! But i think its good for the player to play some championship football, will help him in the long run.
The club would of spoke to Boro to makesure he was getting football. They willfind him another loan if not.

You're probably right...just got a hunch he'd be ok though. I like his temperament, it's like Dier's. Cool head.

Yer i agree! I like his passing range as well! Watched him play for the U21 and below and has impressed me!
The one i am really really excited about is Marcus Edwards! I think will be a midfielder in the long run! But wow he can play with the best! He turned down arsenal and Chelsea i was told!

He has been with us for a while, there are clips of him playing as an 12 year old for us and he is tiny but doing well

Yes i cant say much but he is well known in the club for all the right reasons! Two footed, smart footballer who can pick the right pass and rides a tackle well, also can finnish!
He is from london and is a spurs fan i was told! He was picked up and was playing above his age! Clubs did try and take him but all partys concerned wanted to stay. The club were very happy :)

read a boro forum earlier to see if i could find anything, only two comments, one said he started brightly but faded, the other said he was rubbish.

northerners though, what do they know.
