Didn't fit in to the back 3 model that Martin favours. When we use a back 4 we seem more comfortable and he would have been more suited to a winger role rather than "being out of position" in a wingback role where in Martin's setup the WB is expected to tbe both a high pressing winger and a full back expecting to use his pace taking on FBs and closing down fast wingers, unsustainable over the 90 without help from the middle four midfielders.
When he did come on and was effective Manning usually concentrated on the defensive duties.
May have been used more for the rest of the season if we are going to use a four at the back more.
Hope he doesn't come back and cause us trouble if he is loaned out to another Championship team.
Wishing him well but not against us.

Our use of the loan market has been abysmal. Loan players need to considerably improve our starting 11, yet the players we've signed have been well below this standard

Or is it a reluctance to use too many of them or inability to use them correctly. Young players being added to young team this year seem a bit too risky for Martin

That we've consistently utilized a central defender out wide this season instead of one of the several natural wide players available would suggest that the problem lies with management rather than the players.

Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back.

I think he's potentially a very good attacking player, I'm sure Rogers would have got a good return from him.

The fact that Lati has been consistently chosen shows how poor the loan acquisitions have been. They may prove to be decent players in time, but that's no use to us when we need quality now.

Have they been poor or has Martin just not moulded them into his style, like he hasn’t with the rest of the squad.
Oko-Flex, who rarely played, got supporters off their seats by offering a bit of excitement, speed and quality yet poor performing Sorrinola and Paterson have been regulars. Cundle has played a little but not often, Williams was wasted, although a purchase Ogbeta has had his time wasted.

He can't go anywhere else this season, after playing for West Ham in August and us.

Everyday above ground ... Is a good day! 😎

Didn't realise he had played for West Ham this season so if he isn't going to be picked by them seems a waste to callback, maybe he asked to be called back and thought he had a better chance of getting game time with them.
