Armstrong deserves more than spending another season at Derby . Mid way through the season he’ll be 19 and I believe will be too good for them and learning little there. Either he stays and is integrated into our squad with regular starts and game time or send him somewhere new to learn eg a PSV type loan.Back to Derby again I'd suggest once they don't get relegated this season. If he's happy and settled there and Derby are a fan of him it be a no brainer for all parties involved to do another loan there next season
Thing for Armstrong is his current loan at Derby is going so well - where do you loan him out to after that?

The championship is a good competitive tough league moreso than the Dutch league imo. Branthwaithe put down alot of his improvements at PSV down to the tutelage of Van Nistelrooy who isn't there anymore. 19 is still very young in the PL and regular time in the championship would I think benefit him more than a bit part squad player in the PL especially with Everton not in Europe his game time might be minimal here next season. Think a player who has played only a few senior games deserving more than playing for the likes of Derby is a bit unrealistic at this early stage in his careerArmstrong deserves more than spending another season at Derby .

We might be able to get some foreign loans but we can't be innovative with domestic loans we'll either get bad players or be ripped off by the likes of Chelsea for their squad players who are surplus to requirements.….looking forward to more innovative use of the loan system, we’ll certainly need to be much better than we have been.
Give Marcel a call......The championship is a good competitive tough league moreso than the Dutch league imo.
