What is the situation with him? Will he return for next season? Can he? Or does he still have visa problems from his last loan.
The main question is, would you have him in our team next season?
I reckon he could actually do a job at that level at least. He showed bits of talent and there's a chance in League One it would be his level.

Solly said he would be back this year but he did say it with a smile on his face.
My guess is he will leave if anyone will take him.
So he'll be back for training at Sparrows Lane in July.
He was a (very) poor man's Kermorgant in that his type of play was similar. He was tall and when he was playing he could play with the ball to his head. He was also good with his back to goal reviving the ball and laying off to others.. but he was best with the ball to his feet. His link up play (again when playing well) was pretty good and he was a good finisher (barring that Millwall miss).
In my view another who is a victim of this ludicrous setup. He showed talent at times but was brought in as our only tall striker, then when igor got injured he was our only striker full stop.
He was early 20s in a new league in a new country, he deserved more time to get used to the league. In an ideal world he would have had a more experienced player who could play the same role also in the squad (Kermit?) The he could develop and learn from them and develop, whilst playing cup games and as rotation/ cover for injury/loss of form.
Given time to adapt to the league and time to develop I am sure that we would have seen more of the good George and less of the bad. Consistency is all that was needed, I think the Derby and Cardiff performances were quality! Best performance from a tall/hold up striker since we list Kermorgant. There's not really been much competition, Tudgay or Mak!
Personally think we binned him out too soon - it's received wisdom that foreign players need time to adapt to the English leagues and he showed enough to begin with to suggest he might eventually do okay. He's probably not the only one that might apply to and is part of a general trend at the club of wanting to bring in unknown potential but then not having the patience to let if adapt and potentially thrive.
He's probably no better than League 1/lower Championship standard (at best) but that's where we are and he should be better prepared for what the league will throw at him so I'd say he is worth a second chance as part of a deeper, more balanced squad. At some point we have to start to think a bit about building some stability and better the devil you know, this constant churn of players and managers is not helpful, even allowing for the fact that some have to leave because they simply aren't up to it.
But I suspect we will release him
Politely disagree with you @cantersaddick, but you've probably seen more of him than I did. I think Mak is a far more rounded player, just played in a team that couldn't adapt to that and lumped balls forward. I still think Tucudean is worth a pre-season under a new manager. He's one of the transfer who I feel like we brought in, and when he didn't settle straight away, binned off. It might be that he struggled to settle in England, which would be a fault of the recruitment team for not sounding that out beforehand.
Lets give em all a chance as we haven't seen enough of them.

Ok Le points gone but you get my drift.
Wow what an awful awful bunch of players
The real poll should be if you had to have one of the following starting the first game of the season, who would you have... Mac or Tucc?
I'd be happy to see him in League one as I think he may add a bit more to our attack than what we currently have signed up. As next season we're going to have half of the ones who played this season. Only one of Watt, Igor and Lookman are going to stay. And I reckon it will be Igor. So at least Tucc has played with him before and that's when we saw the best of Igor.
Watt might stay only due to injury and lack of suitors. With him, at least you kind of know what you're going to get. He's gonna row pretty regularly, and he's either going to be a very good footballer or not give a toss and not turn up. I still suspect he'll go on loan whenever he's fit if he can't get a move beforehand. I'd wish him the best of luck, because it's clear he doesn't want to be here.
40 odd goals in 200 odd apps knocking around in the Romanian and Belgian leagues.
I'd rather have Pawell Abbott.
And for the record, I'm not one of the 'usual boo boys'....but perhaps you weren't talking about me.
I'd probably go for him over Mak to be quite honest, although Mak isn't as bad as some make up.
We have made some dog awful signings recently - but Tucudean and Makienok aren't the worst by any way, not that that's exactly a ringing endorsement.
He definitely had the touch and technique , just lacked goals- when compared to vetokele season just finished he is better!
