Is there any chance United can cancel his loan like Spurs want to with Alli?

We could be in serious bother if we lose both of them

We need to make this loan permanent. Dele is the one to send back.

most of are midfielders would have put ther foot on it and played it back wards for the 3rd goal

Man Utd can recall him at any time.

Quite. If Utd recall him, we actually get £500K per game for every game he plays for them whilst he's on loan to us. Then if we loan him back during the loan spell to them, we get 50% of his wages paid and it doesn't count toward FFP. Cracking deal struck by Bill.

Finally a deal that works in our favour - so no chance we'll follow through on it.

Isn't it just because McNeill and Harrison are out (and Iwobi finally gone) that he's out wide?

Pretty sure when Harrison is established in the team we'll see Garner in the middle

If not, then fair enough we can grumble

I look forward to seeing how Everton play with Harrison. I think he can play at the right or left back as well as midfield.

Let's see, hopefully lessons learned.

Should see him start to really come through in this second year of his loan. He’s some talent, Man Utd have got a player on their hands there.

The 'loan, loan back, and loan again' system was devised by Bill, no way we lose on this deal. The only problem is if we loan him off them thrice in two consecutive seasons, then he can't play against them for life, unless he's loaned out to them again in which case we can seek special dispensation from the PL Loan Committee, of which Bill is vice chair. If that goes in our favour the original loan is null and void, so we get to loan him out again, provided the club we loan him from give us permission. It's a win-win.
