Should Sammy be Loaned?

Poll closed Apr 28, 2014.
  1. Definitely Yes. A loan move will help him develop as a player and he'll come back a better player.

  2. Maybe, but i think he could be used still.

  3. No. He's should be kept as a back up striker in case things go tits up, and could play in cup games.

  1. What do you think guys? Is he too good to let go or is he not quite there yet?

    I personally think he's shown a lot of potential. He's been good whenever he's played, and wasn't bad against Chelski either.

    However i can't see him getting regular games in our strongest squad. I personally think some birds aren't meant to be caged. We should allow him to go on loan to a League 1 or CC team that will be full of momentum and pushing for promotion in their respective leagues.

    He should get used to being part of an ambitious team pushing for success and learn to keep up with regular first team football.

    It would be a sin to keep him in the reserves in my opinion. In think Sammy, Ranger and Tavernier should be loaned out. They've shown energy and potential, but i can't see them getting a proper chance here.

    What do you reckon? I think Sammy could benefit from a season of first team football.

    Send 'im to Leicester for half a season with an option for another 6 months, they need a decent winger/ striker <ok>

    I'd loan him 2 goals against Gateshead doesn't make you ready for the 1st team. He will get there though.

    Tell you what, give him a month at Gateshead for a taste of first team football (with the option to extend) then come back to the question.

    We did similar with Tavernier and I think it's a massive confidence booster, being the star man at a club. Loaning to (say) Hartlepool would be the best move but he'd not be a guaranteed starter, at Gateshead he could develop a bit of swagger.

    This is a good idea. I'd go with this.

    Loan him out, nowhere near the finished article and we'd be wasting him in the reserves.

    Play him for 6 games before Xmas and sell him to Liverpool for £50 million and send them Shola.

    More and more I'm starting to think a fan takeover may just work!

    Loan him out definitely, lots of championship teams may come in after the first week of their season.

    Normally I would say loan him out, but I'm actually quite impressed by him and would like him to replace Ranger as the first team youngster striker, see what he can do!

    I have to say I'd keep him. I think he looks like a cracking player and he deserves his chance at first team football. He looks twice the player Ranger is, and has had a fraction of the chances. I would've kept Lualua too.
