Young EFC Players Out On Loan 17-18

Next pre-season is going to be interesting with Williams, Dowell, and Connolly coming back to fight for midfield places.
Williams got no chance, will never make it in the prem. Connolly is an interesting one, doing well for Ipswich. Probably to soon for him to challenge for a spot. Maybe another loan

I disagree. He may not get a look in back at Everton but he'll be a PL player somewhere for sure.
 

So Onyekuru is saying Everton have looked at the scans and told him he wont need surgery and Anderlecht are now saying he does?

Bit of a strange one this.
 
In some media today the news appeared that Henry Onyekuru , the current top shooter of RSCA, would not have to go under the knife after he injured KAS Eupen in the game.

Onyekuru immediately underwent the necessary examinations last weekend, after which the medical staff of RSC Anderlecht and the treating physician were of the opinion that an operation is inevitable. They also remain behind their position after these new statements that the Nigerian will have to suffer.

In view of the severity of the injury, the flank attacker will be out of action for several months in order to be able to recover optimally. Further details are discussed with Onyekuru's mother club Everton.

Tbh I don't think there's any misunderstanding between Everton and Anderlecht. I think he spoke before his turn for whatever reason. It's quite unlikely that a ruptured MCL and possibly damaged ACL can be corrected with exercises.
 

Transfermarkt have Robinson and Grant's loans finishing in January. Does anyone know if that's right for a start and if so what's likely to be the plan for them from there?
 
Championship
Barnsley - Joe Williams played full match in 1-1 home draw with Reading

OS Match Report

Fan comments
"Williams - 6 - Nothing spectacular good or bad."
"Williams - who I happen not to rate as much as others do on here - was superb today. He was in my opinion man of the match by a street. An 8.5."
"Williams 7. Not spectacular, but always in the thick of it. Broke well."

Ipswich Town - Callum Connolly played full match in 1-2 home defeat to Derby County

OS Match Report
"Martyn Waghorn released Jonas Knudsen with a terrific pass, the Denmark international’s cross cleared by Richard Keogh, then Connolly tested Carson with a header as Town responded."
"Connolly was inches away from an equaliser at the other end from Waghorn’s corner while Vydra was unable to direct his shot at full stretch from Thorne’s excellent pass."
"Celina rallied for Blues and had Carson diving across goal to see a right foot drive go just wide, then Connolly had a shot deflected as Town looked to get back on level terms before the break."

Twitter stuff
18' Celina's free-kick goes all the way to the back-post where Callum Connolly meets it, but he's off balance and Carson saves
Waghorn's corner goes all the way to the back post to Connolly whose header looks to be trickling in, but it's hacked off the line

Fan comment
"what a delight you are too young Callum who fought his nuts off."

Nottingham Forest - Kieran Dowell played full match in 0-1 home defeat to Sunderland

OS Match Report
"Dowell's effort from a free kick stung the palms of Ruiter and Murphy tried to catch the keeper out with a chipped effort but the Dutchman saved well."
"The best chance arrived with virtually the last kick of the game as Dowell flicked the ball through for Eric Lichaj, who turned in the area and fired a left-footed effort against the foot of the post."

Twitter stuff
36' #NFFC 0-0 Sunderland: Kieran Dowell hits a speculative effort from inside his own half but it drifts wide of Ruiter's goal.
52' #NFFC 0-1 Sunderland: Ben Osborn taps a free-kick off to Kieran Dowell but his strike is comfortably held by Ruiter.

Fan comments
"our intricate play relies on a heavily-marked Dowell, it's no surprise we're underperforming."
"Dowell is the natural central target but he isn't active enough in finding space"
"Dowells carrying the weight of our attacking flair on his shoulders, he's the only one trying anything out the ordinary, otherwise we're clueless."

Sunderland - Tyias Browning played full match in same game

OS Match Report

Fan comments
"Gibson and Browning were brilliant."
"Browning did well"
"Browning looked very solid at the back"

Bolton Wanderers - Antonee Robinson played full match and was booked in 1-0 away win over Sheffield United

OS Match Report
"And that they did thanks to Madine who prodded home from close range to convert a splendid low centre from Robinson who was causing mayhem with his pace over on the left flank."

Twitter stuff
GOALLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!! It had to be him. Gary Madine slots home from close range after excellent work from @Antonee_Jedi. Get in! (21)
Another excellent opportunity for Wanderers. @Antonee_Jedi is causing havoc down the left side, his cross finds Pratley who lays off to @A1F1E9 before his shot is blocked. (28)

Fan comments
"Robinson, came back great from Burton debacle"
"Robinson’s best game by a mile - did the formation suit him better?"

League Two
Crewe Alexandra - Conor Grant played full match in 1-3 away defeat to Cambridge United

OS Match Report

Matthew Pennington was an unused substitute for the Leeds game.
Brendan Galloway was not in matchday squad.

...many thanks for collating this detail, it must be time consuming but it’s really appreciated.

Browning appears to have settled in. It really is a case of these lads getting regular football and enjoying the game. Robinson as well with favourable reports. Dowell and Connolly continue to be key members of their teams.

As @ijjysmith mentioned, it’ll be interesting how the change of Manager at Forest impacts Dowell.
