He needs to follow Joe Rodon's footsteps and accept a step down is the best way to take a step up. Rodon has gone to Leeds and smashed it. Could be Championship is more his level. But if they get promoted, he'll still be their starting CB. Or, he will attract interest from lower level PL teams over the summer. Japhet should look at that template and try to do the same thing. Hell, i'd recommend Sess do it as well. Sadly the latter two are also insanely injury prone. So, what club wants to take on players that are only available 50% of the time. It's a rough one for Japhet, as he had a lot of potential. I hope that he can get over his injury hump, and find a place to play regularly. Whether in the Championship, the SPL or heck, why not the MLS?
I agree. He shouldn't see stepping down to any level as a bad thing. He's a big name and people will have eyes on him so all he has to do is focus on playing regularly and staying fit, and if he's good enough then big clubs will come knocking again.

Feels like a good loan. Edwards a good coach who is just starting to get going at Millwall. If Tanganga can string together 20 games in a row I really think he will impress. Sadly that is an increasingly big if.

Can’t be worse than his last loan!

Hopefully he gets a chance and impresses and cements a position

Would be a good move for him if he stays fit - I do hope the initial reports of Millwall wanting Dorrington were just bad info and not scuppered by Japh becoming available.

So I THINK every loan has been a recall, with the exception of Phillips but he’s been replaced by Radu. Is that right?

Yeah, we chose to recall Scarlett, japh and Devine, whereas reguilon and spence were sent back. I think that's everyone
