He's 22 and he's played about 50 first team games. It's not much given his age and the fee we paid for him was silly. He's looked like he has a bit of ability, but if I'm being brutally honest he didn't look that much better than Isaiah "The new Viera" Osbourne when he first broke through.
At his age he's not going to get much better having 10-20 minutes here and there for us. If we can recoup a big chunk of what we paid out, then do it. And if the lads attitude is in question, then moving him on is probably for the best. It seems clear Bruce won't have any nonsense.

He definitely looks better than Osborne did

he is still young so he can come back and establish himself as a holding midfielder

A loan deal is fair.

Must admit, from just watching him two or three times, I can't see what Tshibola's inclusion adds - and that underlines how far our hopes must have fallen if we think we should rely on a player like him. He's no Draper, nor even McCann, no Taylor, even....IMO.

He's what 21? I think we need to give him a chance to develop.

Dont kid selves. Bruce identifies that player is up to standards right now.  I don't know if ever will be a premier league player. He's barely championship.  He would have been good to go to Celtic or Bolton enjoy feeling of winning matches not to a dissary forest team . I said already don't rate him as a footballer. Lacks any football skills and pace. He's hampered by expectation due to size but he only has alleged physicality and athletism as his strengths. Maybe one day he'll improve to be championship top half level but he is what we signed a raw player from a mid table championship team .

At this moment we don't need that . Good luck to him but he's not gonna be missed.  Gardner and West wood are above him pecking order for reasons other than experience.

Maybe he will be good enough for the top flight one day. Maybe.

In the here and now, he is better than Gardwood. Which is why he should remain and why at least one of them should be punted.

Yep, agree with that.  Unfortunately I don't think there's any takers for Garwood so we're stuck with them.

Sensible move IMO. Tish needs to play regularly and hopefully Forest can provide the game time.

what do you mean 'no Taylor even' ?

with your posts on Alex Cropley and now this little dig at Taylor I'm beginning to think your an imposter,
it doesn't bother me, you can post what you like for me but you need to come clean

 I don't know one other Villa fan that would write that stuff

Gardner has looked OK at times this season. He played well with Lansbury at Forest, might be worth another go. Westwood can go though.

He's either on the wind up, or the worst judge of footballer since Paddy Riley.
