As DM states above. And experience wise, IF he starts Swansea will be better than Rangers. But then I would have a concern that he might fancy Swansea rather more than us, and we might lose his heart to them.

Still nothing on Reed.

 

He could also move in the loan window, but do find it strange he hasn't already.

 

He is clearly above U21 football yet also not going to get many/any starts at Saints unless we have a lot of sudden injuries.

 

Would have to say this season hasn't really ever started for Reed - he must be gagging for a loan move.

I would say so, the relegation scrap is heating up. At the moment we are comfortable but a couple of defeats and we could be right back in it.

 

dont be a ****. 6 points from safety with bundles of games left.

For f*cks sake.

 

We aren't going down this season. Give it a f*cking rest.

It is a bit strange. I think he has all the attributes to do well in the Prem, just needs experience to help him learn when to tackle, when to drop off, concentration levels etc. A loan would seem obvious.

Agree. Once it became clear in October or so that he wasn't going to be used in the first team then he should have been getting proper games rather than diluted U21 stuff.

 

Hope for his sake something is sorted for him soon or this season might seem a waste of time for him and he may well start getting a bit frustrated about his future here as even if Wanyama goes we will surely replace with someone else.

Reed is better than Romeu for me hands down. He isn't as small as people claim either. I find it very frustrating that he hasn't had more game time considering he's young, English and an academy player and clearly is a decent player. He's a great ball winner and has a lot of potential to improve if only he had been given more game time...

I don't really care what he does for you, the rest of the world can see he's not anything like as good as Romeu at the moment, and his nasty habit of kicking people up in the air when he has no chance of getting the ball isn't going to help him or anyone else. Having said that, he's as close to the first team as any of the kids other than Ward-Prowse and Targett at the moment.

Which "loan window" is that then? The one that ceased to exist last season? Emergency loans are now banned and players can only go on loan inside transfer windows. So if he's still with us on Sep 1st he's staying until at least New Year.

Good point, I worked backwards from the "Today" ones, should have noticed. He's still no further on though under yet another manager though which tells you something.

Clasie really has no excuses this season. A system focusing on short passing should suit him perfectly.

 

Yes, if he can pass sideways and scuttle across the pitch in a crab like fashion he will be perfect.

Harrison Reed has "proven " himself in our youth squads - and even played U20/21 (?) for England, yet doesn't look close to ousting any of the regular squad members.

 

He needs football week-and-out, and a loan to Championship club would be a win-win situation.

 

His loan club would get a tough midfielder and Saints could see exactly what his performance level is for future planning.
