Norwich are trying to go back up and we’re trying to stay in the division
I don't think anyone has a problem with competition for places, Norwich are in the same league as us, why is he not competing for a spot in their team ?
He's a good player and will improve our squad, but it does seem an odd move from the Norwich end.
Giles might be attacking midfielder.....
Which won’t be happeningDon’t find it as ridiculous as some that Giles plays further forward, but that would be subject to us changing formation.
Nobody shoot me down in flames but from what I've seen of him, would seem a better fit.
Strange one from Norwich, have they already decided he's not for them. Why would you loan a player back to a rival. I hope we haven't had to guarantee game time for this.
So you haven't watched either of the games this season then
It makes perfect sense for both teams.
Just like Maddison, Norwich loaned him out before his break out season. McCallum will get to play Championship football in a system and players he is familiar in higher division. We get a position of need and a familiar face.
This opens up the possibility of pushing Giles further up the pitch if need be.
It’s a shame we didn’t keep hold of McCallum in Jan.
No we can't play a system with two left backs in the same team with one higher up the pitch. Remember when people suggested this for Haynes (can't recall who the other LB was at the time)
It's common practice in football and I wouldn't be surprised if it's been included in the deal.We won’t have made any guarantees ronins isn’t that way players earn the shirt they keep the shirt we know how mark ronins works by now
Wasn’t Giles playing for Shrewsbury as a wide left attacking player?

Hmmmmm wasn’t there a young lad called Gareth Bale who started at Southampton as a LWB? Whatever happened to him?No we can't play a system with two left backs in the same team with one higher up the pitch.

I think he looks a skillful player with a turn of pace. He also looks like a player than gets quickly and easily turned when in defence, albeit he had an impressive second-half against MK.
I don't think its so ridiculous, his pace could be real weapon behind the striker late in games.

It is odd he’s come back here rather than another club
Why not send him back to a club he knows well?
Realistically, McCallum isn’t going to start week in, week out for a club chasing a return to the Prem. The likelihood was that he was going to get a shipped out on loan and if we wanted him, then it makes sense for all parties involved.
That's what walker is for
Giles is not a cam in a month of Mondays
No chance he comes in and Giles is dropped he’s been one of our best playersIt's common practice in football and I wouldn't be surprised if it's been included in the deal.
Did I say he was?

That’s what doesn’t make sense. Norwich have one left left back and we have one who’s been one of the better players so far. Surely there must have been a club he could have gone to who was in more need of a left back?
Seems very quick how it’s all happened
He isn’t likely to start week in week out here either
The loan agreement with dictate that.No chance he comes in and Giles is dropped he’s been one of our best players
He isn’t likely to start week in week out here either
OK smart arse. I’m making the point that Wing backs can be turned into wingers. Not making a comparison with Bale.Christ it’s Chris Hussey Mk 2
Not sure how I feel about this. Giles has been great so far. Would rather the budget have been used on an attacking midfielder.
Have to assume Mason is off.
