Unlike Smith, Levitt showed there's a player in there. Smith is one of the worst players I've seen wear the shirt.Richard J said:I thought he was a strange signing at the time when in the one in one out embargo. Like Matt Smith he is a good player just not what we need.
I felt at the time that we needed a central defender as a bigger priority. In that regard nothing has changed.
I suspect Albie's improved form and Shinnie signing made it difficult for Dylan to make an impact.1 -
What a massive flop he was. Countless failed forward passes in the very few games he did play. I’ll be surprised if he manages to make it in league football.1

I wasn't a huge fan but think that's slightly harsh. Definitely not the best circumstances when he's played, particularly the conditions against Northampton. The lad is only 19, has plenty of time to improve and make it. The Utd staff clearly rate him. Him going back is definitely the right move though.SheedyCAFC said:What a massive flop he was.

Smith played for what, an hour? When we were a joke of club being run by crooks!Talal said:

There must be a player in Smith for him to be at Man City and to be capped by Wales.
Is it a coincidence that all of our successful loans tend to be from the Southern clubs? Is it better when they are close to their parent clubs?0 -
Not sure what being run by crooks has to do with an individual's performance, look at Gallagher.Todds_right_hook said:

I respectfully disagree, he was shite.1 -
Surely the behind the scenes issues affects the squad, Gallagher had gone by then. Smith didn’t look a world beater after 60 minutes, agreed, but I don’t think it’s fair to call him shite based on a few sub appearances. you of course are entitled to your view.

Well if anything the place should've felt more positive when Smith signed as the crooks hadn't been found out at that point. I just remember him looking like a fan that been given the chance to play, it was quite funny in a way.Todds_right_hook said:

As fans we hadn’t found out, I’d imagine it was different behind the scenes.Talal said:

Matt Smith's first loan last season at QPR is pretty similar to Levitt's loan with us, so hopefully if Levitt goes elsewhere he has more luck than Smith did when he came to us1

Struggling to decide between Levitt and Davide Petrucci as to who had the bigger impact.
Man Utd loanees don't seem to work for us.1 -
Kids of the largest teams are often just over hyped. Abdul Razak was the next big thing, highly thought of by Man City when he joined us on loan. At age 28 he has played c 86 games in his career, no more than 21 for any one team and is kicking around in the Swedish leagues.Richard J said:

Spector wasn't that bad was he? Seem to remember him being played at left back a lot when he was better in the centre/right.bolloxbolder said:

he won't be missed0

We saw glimpses of what Levitt could do.
But as a youngster with little experience and slight figure, he was always going to find it tough going in a physical Third Division.
He came here to develop but with our glut of new signings after the takeover, and Bowyer's preference for experienced 'ready made' players, he was quickly marginalised.
Coming to us as a teenager, living a long way from home for the first time - and contracting Covid, post viral, self-isolation, etc
made it especially tough for him.
He has plenty of ability, tidy and good vision; it's not that he's a poor player. Just apparently not what we needed right now.
I wish him all the best.

He actually went to Bristol City straight from us and Joe Jordan got him playing semi-well again.blackpool72 said:

He was a bit hit and miss if I remember rightly. Had some outstanding performances but could also be a liability.Talal said:

Don't think we can judge smith of levitt tbf. Neither were the type of player like galla who would come and get stuck in from the get go which is what we need.They would develop at a top half champs team who play and already have someone to do the running dirty work0

Is he going back straight away ?
Ironically Pratley's suspension / Watson's injury might mean he might get some minutes in the next few days . With Fanewo and Shinnie injured we don't have to worry about the five loanee policy at the moment .3 -
Yes I was thinking that as well, with Watson in particular being out for 2 to 3 weeks at a guess, it would be tempting to keep him for a couple of weeksRichard J said:Is he going back straight away ?

I hope he stays. Ideally he'll get a run out on Friday and can show us what he's about. It sounds like he's struggled a bit with the latent effects of Covid which can't be nice when your job is running about all day. If Pratley and Watson are out for 3 games or more then he can potentially have a little run in the side and get some consistency going

Yeah I reckon he'd have gone back today but for Watson doing his hammy. As it is there have hopefully been some changes of plan0
-
Happy to see him in the Watson "role".

I cant see Watson and Pratley being out changing much myself
Man Utd want him playing regularly and were looking to recall him to send him elsewhere, the longer we keep him the less likely they are to re loan him back out.
So if we have had discussions with them, I doubt they would have said yeah u can keep him for 3 weeks whilst Watson is out, then send him back leaving us a week to find him a new club, more likely they have said if you want to keep him he needs to be playing more regularly for the rest of the season not just in this spell when Watson is out, and if we agree to that then suddenly come February dont play him again we could find ourselves not getting anymore loans from United2
