Somebody posted a link to a QPR site the other day and to a man, every single fan was gutted he was leaving. If he's as good as they say, I hope we have the option to sign him permanantly in the summer.

Walker is a promising full back who was class for Sheffield United, he signed for Spurs last year and hasn't been given a chance.

Isn't Lichaj a promising full-back?

Yes. Now we have 2.

I may be wrong, but aren't they both right-backs? Do we need 2?

Lets give the guy a chance...he's meant to have had an outstanding season thus far, even if it is in the championship. If he's costing us next to nothing and we have Luke Young injured, Warnock out of the loop, Carlos playing right back then why not?

Let's see who else comes in...maybe the main focus is on midfield and forward line. I would hope so anyway.

if we have the chance to sign him permanently, then great, as he has a lot of talent and in that, includes pace....

if there is no purchase option, then i will be furious...

Nothing in official site saying he's signed and sky saying we are hoping to sign him.

  Great potential.........could be a very good player.Can't be any worse than what we have at the moment.

  Hope we can make this permanent.....was banging on about this kid 2 yrs ago, better prospect than Naughton, and a very good attacking FB.

Two/three/four years ago we were moaning about the lack of right backs.  Now we're moaning because we've signed one.

Hardly sets the pulse racing, but we lack attacking ability at fullback right now. He's quick. Defensively he can't do any worse than Luke Young and especially Warnock have done this season.

At least that's a signing, reasonably early in the window. However, signing a kid from Spurs reserves on loan, is hardly a signal that we've got financial clout. Saying that, do we really want to give Houllier too much cash to spend? Part of what we spend now may constitute some of the summer budget too. Should a better manager be in charge by then, I'd like him to have enough funds to really push us back up to the top 6 again.

If we have to do just enough to avoid relegation, in order to make a better push next season, so be it. It'd be a gamble though. I think it's pretty clear that Houllier can't be our long term solution, the man's well past it.

Great! He'll save us from the shit we're currently in.

What a fucking joke.

Spurs cast-offs? No thanks? I don't want us to be a team where others let their players come to us to find out if they're good enough, and if they are they take them back.

I don’t think anyone expects him to be the saviour so get a grip. Unless you haven't noticed were not that great at the moment that quality players are falling over themselves to join us. He’s a good player that can offer us something that we lack in the position he plays, did you see Cuellar last night shit himself every time he got into a position to use the ball positively?

Hopefully he'll play well and there will be a clause to buy him at the end of the season if he doesn't play well nothing is lost. Give the guy a break.
