The Marcus loan rumours are true. His team want him to go out on loan to get some first team football. Injuries haven’t helped his playing opportunities at Spurs.

doubt it will be fulham as they already have ojo on loan who plays in edwards' position and also have cairney at #10 who is their captain, think norwich would be a good option though as mentioned above.

It seems like it's been a tough year for ME; i'm sure he was looking to push further towards the first team but injuries and first team priorities have hindered some progress i feel.

A loan could be a good chance to freshen him up, give him some competitive games and show him the workings of other teams with different challenges both on and off the pitch.

Fingers crossed the right types of club are interested and we can ensure he gets a solid education.

I'm not saying this is nessicerily the case here but I hate when a player has a vocal entourage, it should be Marcus, maybe an agent and pochs decision, not his mates

They’ll be great demand for him. Obviously need to think of his best interest. But he could be a great bargaining chip for a player we may want from championship. Sessegnon the obvious. Be a big deal for who gets him imo, to buy you’d probably be talking £10-15m. There’s 13 teams still in with a shout of play offs. His stardust could be difference in that league.

No, not at all. Just a short term 6 month loan to get some first team action/experience.
I happen to agree that he could use the 1st team experience - but I am curious how that plays with Poch - if his team is the one pushing the move, rather than Poch/McDermott making the decision to get him 1st team experience.

£10-15m for who?

I don't think that is true. Most players these days have a team around them, usually consisting of agents, managers, family members. Of course they're going to have opinions about their player, particularly if he hasn't been playing much football, as is the case with Edwards.

I think the last player to be so vocal about demanding more playing time was Bentaleb...

Poch has said this year that he does not like players knocking on his door asking for more minutes, I have to assume ti applies to the youth players as well.

Win-Win both ways. If he cuts it, it is obvious. If he doesn’t, also obvious for him and what he needs to do. Right club is paramount.
