Can't help but think he'll regret signing for Spurs. Leeds would have put a lot more into developing him if he had still been their property.

From an outsider looking in you might think he’s got this big move and he’s popped his slippers on and lit the cigar!

If he looked hungry and up for it in training surely he’d be getting more game time with all these loan clubs. Clearly a talent and these clubs wanted him to come in and help their respective clubs

Must be attitude if there is no whispers of niggling injuries!!

Anyone catch in the latest Ally Gold video that the club wanted to bring him into the senior team straight away but Poch said no and wanted him loaned out? How did they possibly think that was going to work?

These things rarely work when they dont see eye to eye and the club makes unilateral decisions on a transfer like that. Maybe a loan was the best play but in hindsight we should have brought him in for a few weeks then loaned him out somewhere. An immediate loan back to Leeds was a huge miss. And it’s led to a lost season of development.

have we recalled any of our loanees?

a lot of lower league teams will be in the shit if their seasons are not completed by the end of June. most have 4-5 loanee's and some will be freebies come the 1st July and might already have another team to join

Think in most cases loanees can’t be recalled outside a transfer window

Unless QPR want to cancel the loan as well (which I doubt they do) then there’s no way we can get him back at the moment

Not sure why they'd want to keep him when they're not playing any matches, he's hardly any use to them and he's costing them money.

Losing 1-0 to Barnsley bottom of the table. 5 subs and he can’t get a minute. Doesn’t look great.

Maybe better to look for a loan abroad for him next year? See if he can get some time in Holland, Germany or Belgium? Maybe even France like Mason did? Seems like he is struggling in England at the moment....would be beneficial to have him go abroad I think for his personal development too

Unused sub again, despite 5 subs!

QPR are in a tailspin, I imagine Eze will happily be on his way out at end of season.

Clarke has got to and play every week somewhere!

Has been a bit of a disaster for the kid since signing for us - not his fault at all but we really need to sort out a proper loan that gives him regular first team football or bring him into the first team squad at Spurs (no idea if he is good enough though)

Weirdly looks as if 3/4 managers have all decided he’s not good enough which is a bit of a worry!

He’s still young may come good but maybe a loan to somewhere like Swansea will help him they crying out for young talents on loan
