He's been on the bench most games so surely it means more coming in?

Looks likely Robin’s is confident of getting his man after his recent comments about reluctance to let anyone go

You would hope. Plus work CoH and Allen on their way back it would hamper his development.

He’s a CM by trade is he? Although Robins wants everyone to be versatile

Hope he gets plenty of gametime and does well.

Didn't look overly comfortable when he played last season but was mostly out of position to be fair.

Wasn't going to get a look in here this year, so a good move all round.

Mostly been a midfielder at youth level but first team coaches see good potential as a CB - be interesting to see where he plays for Dundee.

I think Adam Barton became a CB in the Scottish league so must be doable.

Speed of decision making was off, I thought, which probably comes from not playing competitive games.

Didn't he play CB pre season?
Good luck to him anyway where ever they play him.

Good move for him. Is playing top division in Scotland better for development than playing League 1 in England though?

FFS keep up with reality. That was pre season when we had no CB's

Not that I know of, but talk from before was that we were looking to send him to L1/L2 and there was a fair bit of interest.

I'd say wherever he gets the most game time at a reasonable level is best for his development.

I'd rather he plays 30 games in Scotland than 15 games in League one, as an example.

I think SPL is decent for a 19 year old looking to get first team football and I love ripping on the SPL.

True. Looking at their squad he should have a good chance at playing most games.

It toughened Maddison up.
Though Howley looks like he's been eating raw meat since he was 5, he's a big unit.

Which is good because as part of this last Thursday he told me Howley will only go when the new CM is almost done so thats a good sign....

The legend goes that, on his days off, he continually visits the street in the vain attempt to get said nut around it.

Looks a good prospect, good stature and comfortable on the ball, good loan for him, will do him the world of good, just look at Eccles

Rus is the only one left that Robins wants to get a 'competitive' loan (whatever that means) other than Tavares who the plan is for the same in January when hes fit

Moore i can see being gone by Friday

Looks a good loan for him if he can get a decent number of games. Given the number of players ahead of him in midfield he's far more likely to get a look-in at Dundee and it's about the right level to see him progress.

All i was told is hes from abroad but club being very coy

However O'Brien being available changed things as Robins likes him.

Think thats why we moved on from Styles
