Usually these deals are for younger players was my point.

I don’t really understand why we haven’t pushed for a loanee for this season as well as this guy if we’re loaning him back. Not like we’d fall into the same trap as Boro etc. in needing to replace the departing loan player in the summer.

Got to say I’m loving our transfer strategy. Identify target and then go about things in a non panic way. Solid signings, no loans, right profile. Panic loans very rarely yield anything.

Let's be honest , I'm sure Robins would rather do this than lose out to another club in the summer should he bag another 10

Is Turner clutching at straws based on the DMac quotes a few weeks ago about loaning back?
If that’s what we’re doing then great. But if we keep selling our best players every season then replacing them with up and coming talent we’re not really moving forward. Doug has changed the club immensely so far and it’s been a breath of fresh air but the proof will be over the next couple of seasons.

Trying to perform the mental gymnastics to convince myself this isnt as shit for this season as it appears.
Nah sorry, not working.
We know MacAnthony's a slippery one but he's proper tickled Dougs belly here

You'd have to think he's been fed something to put that out

Do you know if the club have made an effort or not? It’s been a quiet window across the board.
I’m sure MR knows the weaknesses in his squad but there’s also a longer term plan at play.

We've several players worth money on the books now though , rather than 1 or 2 .. we're at the start of "OUR" model
We go up the deal becomes what?
Sounds like it's a pot shot to me from the club expecting to be in this division!

Would be a great signing, bit disappointed if we loan him back though.

We've potentially spent over 5 million on 2 players this January .. times are hard right

Exactly this. Long term planning wins the day.
Panicking is how you end dropping £1m on Leon McKenzie.
who do you want him to sign? Can’t sign like for like replacements for people like Hamer and Gyo because guess what? They cost just as much if not more.
Signing up and coming talent is what gets you players like Gyo and Hamer.

Bet commentators love it when he puts the ball across the penalty area. EMC squares
If he's a long term target that we wanted to sign in the summer, this could be a brilliant way of securing a good price. If they go up and he's smashed league one we probably wouldn't be able to get him. It's good long term planning, we've been coping just fine this season. Glad the club are acting calmly and seeing January as a part of a longer transfer strategy not a short term panic fix.
Do feel Posh will have a similar issue we had with James Maddison. The lad will want to playing for a premier league promotion not playing down in league one. They've possibly lost some money on the fee to appease the supporters short term, but could be left short changed by half hearted performances before he leaves

Our expectations are rising as a result of our own success so it’s naturally frustrating that he’s getting loaned back - but this is a long term plan, no operation premiership bullshit
Let’s remind ourselves that we’re signing the best winger in division below - a huge step up from signing players like Waghorn or will they or won’t they players like Jobello and Kastaneer

He's a good owner and has done well at posh , he's flipped a fair few million on players , and isn't one for lying down .. he also knows that if he scores another 10 this season , he could be worth more holding onto him .. we've probably met him in the middle

... and now we know the real reason why the loan back is happening... to spare us from this

Ok, so we're a little short in the front, wide areas. We spend money on a 24 year old and then loan him back. When really, we could do with him in our squad. Makes no sense to me.
