"Middlesbrough, Stoke and Swansea are interested in a loan deal for Tottenham's 20-year-old winger Jack Clarke"
I know he was mentioned on here by a couple of people but pretty sure he was never going to drop down to league one.

Surely staying in London is more attractive than those 3 dumps, 3 of the biggest shitholes in football, divvy centralChris_from_Sidcup said:"Middlesbrough, Stoke and Swansea are interested in a loan deal for Tottenham's 20-year-old winger Jack Clarke"

I read it as having a word with bowyer about his recent performance and strange selections, which an owner is entitled to do. Not that ts should pick the teamRedrobo said:

The fact Mingi, more than Barker, hasn't even been on the bench is quite a head stratcher. At his age, at this level, in these circumstances you have to ask if not now when?bolloxbolder said:

I can't not now see any circumstances in which Bowyer will use him. On that basis I expect him to leave as soon as possible and I don't think he has had a fair crack0 -

These are very good questions as he is now 20 and has played 2 games in the tin pot cup, that's it. No non-league loan.Redrobo said:

There can't be many 20 year olds that have played zero proper mens football then gone on to make it?
If you compare it to Hady Ghandour he at least has played 60 odd games of mens football, all be it at a lower level.1 - Sponsored links:

And there lies the problem.MattF said:
Not entirely convinced he gets in any of those championship sides (maybe Rotherham) but they can pay him 5k to sit on the bench as backup and it's double what we could afford.4 -
I don’t think it is that unusual as players develop at different stages. A simple thing like a growth spurt can throw the body completely out of kilter for instance. I have faith that we will be developing him appropriately, and if he is able to complete that journey he will start playing men’s football, hopefully with us.Cafc43v3r said:

I don't think Vennings has been out on loan either. He will be 21 in May and he's only started 3 games in any competition. I've often been critical of Premier League clubs stockpiling players but, if we aren't playing or even sending the likes of Vennings out on loan, how do they develop as footballers?Cafc43v3r said:

I don’t think Vennings would/should be allowed to go out on loan as he may well be needed. I think he has a great future and we need to tie him up on a long contract.Addick Addict said:

Getting kicked from pillar to post is not always the best way to develop a player! It really has to be a good fit, which means that you need the right club to want the player. I think our success in developing players is a good indication that the coaches know what they are doing.3 -
I'm not sure if some of Bow's reluctance to use our youngsters isnt due him having to use them so much last season. As a manager he doesn't seem to be making "brave" decisions as much. Be that team selection, tactics or willingness to take a chance on our youth players who let's face didn't really let us down last season when they played.

He was barely needed last season when we had a major injury crisis so I'd be amazed if he's needed now when we have probably 8 midfielders ahead of him.2 - Sponsored links:

Gnanduillet has been shite every time I’ve seen him. Don’t think he’s championship level at all.2

Have just caught up on 25 pages of this thread and can’t help but pinch myself over the difference between this window and the period last year. Signings made (and early) and no sightings of the super duper phone.Looking forward to what else may pitch up on the LB / SG rollercoaster.9

I think you're right, there likely is a reaction on Bowyer's part to having to play so many young players last season. I remember around this time last year we were seeing Vennings, Davison, Morgan, Doughty and Dempsey playing when only really Morgan would have been expected to appear occasionally in the Championship at the start of the season. It was really depressing watching kids like Dempsey who to be honest is currently National League standard having to take on players who were looking up towards the Premier League, so it's no shocker that Bowyer leans towards using experience when it's available. We also do just have an insane number of midfielders.Even stocking the bench is an exercise in complexity when you've got just a couple of spaces and more and more names keep popping up that you might want to include.AllHailTheHen said:I'm not sure if some of Bow's reluctance to use our youngsters isnt due him having to use them so much last season.

I know some where suggesting Innis was very close, but this in today's SLP:
Addicks boss Lee Bowyer is without Akin Famewo and Ryan Inniss due to injury – with the former the closest to a return but still around a month away.
Yet Bowyer is still reluctant to shop for a CB...2 -
Might be reluctant because we are at the cap of the wage limit. Wouldn't necessarily be needed when everyone is back fit.2

Better wording from Bowyer when talking about Oshilaja
“But now he’s out and Deji has got the opportunity now and he is back fit. Hopefully Deji will do well – so that when Darren is back he can slot back into midfield."6
