    Nothing to stop him being in that bracket in a year or two. Showed yesterday the higher the level of game, the better his performance is.

    Why would 'the city' suit him ....

    ... is he known as a big drinker or just into stag nights.

    I do agree, but sometimes loaning a player isnt right. Some will learn so much more just training with the first team, and being part of a matchday squad at the higher level. Foden is the prime example. I would say Rigg will be in that category. It can be a physical thing, like it was with Foden, or a talent thing whereby they need to be with better players and coaches day in and day out. It can be a tricky balance to strike. I have a feeling the loans have probably gone against Diamond a bit, in that I am not sure he has had a consistent coaching message. He needs a home I think, and if it isnt with us then somewhere that will focus on his game 100%.

    I wish we would go back to a proper ressies league and do away with u23s. It would give clubs so much more of a pathway they can controp, but that ship has long gone I am afraid.

    Standard curry favouring statement every new signing makes for those ****ers. He'll be briefed to say **** like this and then mention his Uncle is a massive "Toon" fan and the unwashed will pull themselves dry

    I think the key is always what club do they go too. I have when you have elite talent, rigg probably falls into that, then 100% best keeping them at the club.

    It's such a long winded way of saying, I'm a greedy bastard, these idiots are paying way over the top for me but will probably pay me twice as much as anyone else, it did seem like the scum were the only team in for him anyway
