Young EFC Players Out On Loan 17-18

Not open for further replies.
I've seen a few Sunderland games at start of season and they were really poor the two of them.

It's a shame really as both looked okay when they played for Everton, but they appear to have gone backwards since then. Browning will be 24 in a few months time, so it seems likely that he'll be sold to a lower league club in the summer. I reckon a few years ago you'd have had short odds on one of Browning, Galloway or Pennington making it with us, but it looks increasingly likely that none of them will. On the plus side, we should get a fee for them all, and they will hopefully have a career in the game.

Browning did reasonably well at Preston last year as well. The loans to Sunderland seem to have destroyed them both.

Hopefully not permanently. Hopefully in a better environment they can still thrive. Although they haven't performed hopefully they've learned from the experience
 
Championship
Leeds United - Matthew Pennington started on the bench and came on in the 36th minute of a 0-3 home loss to Wolverhampton Wanderers

41' Pennington loses possession in a really dangerous area, fortunately Wolves can't take advantage of the opportunity 0-1

Fan comments
"Penny came on and we almost conceded(because he isnt good enough)."
"Pennington - 4"
 

Just wanted to say that I find this to be a great thread. Thanks @atrottel for the write ups. Not being in England mean no coverage of the lower leagues and its great to keep tabs on the youngsters. I was able to watch Lookman in one of his RB games and he looked good. Hopefully he gets some decent playing time as I feel he is raw but has great potential.

Unfortunately its sounds like few on loan in the Championship are lighting it up and it seems unfortunate that Dowell is growing frustrated and not showing the effort. We already have too much of that attitude in the first team.

..all the reports from Leeds suggest they are keen to sign Pennington.

Leeds United - Matthew Pennington played full match and was booked in 2-2 draw at Reading

OS Match Report
"The Royals could have gone further in front when former Leeds man Modou Barrow’s low cross was met by Bodvarsson at the back post, a combination of Bailey Peacock-Farrell and Matthew Pennington kept his effort out, before the latter superbly blocked George Evans’ rebound."

Twitter stuff
24' Reading almost make it two, Barrow puts a low cross in and a combination of Peacock-Farrell and Matthew Pennington deny Bodvarsson, before Pennington makes a super block to stop George Evans' rebound 1-0
49' Pennington is booked for a foul on Bodvarsson 1-1

Fan comments
"Pennington - 5 - Still not convinced by him, good on the ball mostly but looks poor off it"
"Penny-6 good on the ball but positionally not there for me, not strong enough."
"Pennington - 5 - gave the ball away too often and looks shaky on the ball"

Harry Charsley, Brendan Galloway and Boris Mathis were all not in matchday squads.

cant blame them, we appear to be going the same way
We’re 9th in the Premier League, building a new ground and have a billionaire owner who cares about the club (albeit with mistakes). Sunderland have been escaping relegation for years, are bottom of the Champ and have been shambolically Run in a haphazard way
