Scored his first spurs goal earlier this season in Europe, do people think he'll get more chances in the team, or should he be loaned out to a PL team for the season, getting in our lineup 13/14 season?
I'd definitely keep him if we're in the Europa League again, otherwise I'm 50/50. I think he'd be well suited to being back up for VDV but I'm not sure how much he'd improve playing only every now and then.
I think we should get another striker or 2 in. If we have defoe still next year then he should be loaned out otherwise he will be a good bench warmer
Think the kid has a good future. If we're keeping Defoe and Saha and either getting Ade on a perm or someone else, then I think loan him out (good Championship/ bottom half Prem team) and then he can take Saha's place the following season.
I wouldn't be surprised if we loaned him to (for the sake of argument) QPR for the first half of the season to get some experience in the Premier League, and kept him as an option for the second half.
personally i believe these kids should spent a season on loan at a club that will give them first team football and if they can't excel at championship level then they we shouldn’t waste our time giving them a chance in the first team. However talking about Kane, he seems he have impressed at millwall so at least he has made an effort while out on loan.
On the subject of loans, if Bolton do lose a bunch of players as their contracts expire in the summer, we could loan them a couple of youngsters for next season to gain experience - given Owen Coyle seems pretty adept at teaching players their trade, it would be a good place for the likes of Tom Carroll to learn.
Bolton would be a good club but Coyle has to come to us and say which player he wants as otherwise if we start offering our players out, all that happens is they are rarely used and end up just being a sub. We need a club to come and say "we want him for the season" and a manager that actually wants to incorporate the player in their first team.
Quick, somebody sit next to Owen Coyle on the bus and say "Tom Carroll looks like a good player, doesn't he?"
