Why would City allow us to send him back?

We can't just stop paying his wages because he got injured and we don't fancy paying him any more

Eh? I'm suggesting he's out for the season. In which case why wouldn't he go back? Baz was saying just the other day we may well send him back if he's out for the season.
 
Was just mentioned on the 1904 thing that the club like having Liam D around a couple of days a week because of his love of being here, the other lads and his personality. Have no idea about the load deal or the wages, but that sounds like a real positive moving forward.

Yep, can only help our chances at bringing him back next season too.

There's 'send him back' meaning for rehab or 'send him back' meaning cancel the remainder of the loan. We can't do the latter without all parties agreeing. He's our liability until the end of the season under the terms of the season long loan agreement unless Man C are being extremely charitable as there's no incentive for them to recall him, in fact it's the contrary.

Yes and Baz was talking complete garbage.

We can't just send him back because he's injured unless by some miracle City would let us.

Players tend to do their rehab with parent clubs (which makes complete sense, as he's their player). But any notion of cancelling the loan was never going to happen.

I agree. Totally different scenario to Vinagre or Oscar (even Twine) where it's in the parent clubs interest to find another loan as opportunity will be limited at the current loan clubs and the buy options won't be triggered if they stay.

I'm aware mate. Baz suggested we might cancel the loan if there was a need to do so on deadline day. It was suggested it may be necessary if the winger we brought in was a loan rather than permanent as initially planned. That's why I suggested that as Zaroury is a loan, it may well be that we're cancelling Delap's loan.

So you'd know Baz was talking crap then

It's not purely our choice to make, and whether he stays or goes it makes no difference to the matchday picture as the limitation of 5 is in any given matchday squad, not limited to 5 on the books.

I never suggested it was purely our choice to make, I don't know why it's been read that way.

Again, I'm aware you can have 5 in the squad and as many others in the non-matchday squad.

Think we know the rules better than baz did tat the time. He's clarified that it's not happening on the live tonight.
