Holgate would not get a place in many other PL teams which says it all. He might of course improve on his defending and passing but that is for another day we hope. Very,very handsome though.

I don't think his defending and passing are issues. His decision making is, especially with the ball. However, he better be playing the rest of the way. Probably won't with BFS still at the helm, but he should. We should be playing the younger guys - let's see what we've got. Not like the guys in front of them have been good.

Holgate playing was the only time this season we have consistently kept clean sheets....

Five clean sheets with Mason in the side.

Swear no one seems to know he's had surgery.

I really hope we get him back next season.

He's on loan not playing Castaway.

goodisonopheliac · April 15, 2018

I'm worried they might keep him.

(Also, you a Fate fan by any chance?)

There isn't an option in the loan to keep.

And yup.

goodisonopheliac · April 15, 2018

Oh thank G-d for that. Hopefully whoever replaces Allardyce will ACTUALLY PLAY HIM.

And Vlasic. And Onyekuru. And Dowell.

goodisonopheliac · April 15, 2018

I keep forgetting Onyekuru exists.

Great decision to loan him out. Imagine his mindset if he was here and not even getting a chance to play in a team that's performing horribly. Lad's gonna be brimming with confidence next season for our next manager.

Yet another example of how much of a disgrace Allardyce is. He had the audacity to publicly slate Lookman for wanting to go out on loan and play some football as it was clear he wouldn't get his chance here, then proceeded to play the pathetic Bolasie while Lookman benefits from great experience in the Bundesliga and makes a name for himself in one of the top teams in the division. Really hope we keep Lookman and he gives Allardyce two fingers once he's hopefully sacked very soon.

When did he slate him for wanting to go out on loan??? As far as I remember he just questioned him wanting to go to Germany when the club had a deal in mind with Derby?
