No Robinson either though which is odd. Its a shame and I really wanted them to succeed but as Tonev sadly proved against Mansfield he just has not improved since last season. Pleased to see Benteke and Kozak coming along. They can't be too far from returning then I suppose. Even if they're not quite at full training yet, it makes sense for them to be around the group and also watch what they're working on.

Gabby, Weimann and lots of others didn't look that great either.

Tonev could also be a candidate to go on loan. We seem to expect young foreign players to come over, learn the language and fit in in less than a season. Would we lose anything from Tonev, Sylla or Helnius joining championship clubs for the season? I doubt it (their value is rock bottom anyway), but we could easily gain something.
That is not just a question of 12 months with us though, that is a problem with the player.
