    If he was good enough to be starting for Man City he wouldn’t be sent out on loan.

    We clearly think he’s good enough to play here just not quite ready to be starting games yet.

    We are talking about Man City's youngsters that are being loaned out, if he was good enough to start for Man City he wouldn't be loaned out...

    I've now worked out it's the way you are reading it :D

    Do Manchester City actually loan out 17-18 year olds? Tedic was 22 when he came here. Others seem to be sent out as an alternative to playing in their U-21s or when they aren't good enough for the fringes of the first team.

    The mere fact that people (some anyway) are calling for a lad of 18 to start in front of others in our squad, tells you all you need to know about the standard of our recruitment.

    There are lads of 18 playing in the Premier League.

    Exactly. If we was good enough he would be playing from the start now. A head coach is only going to select him if he’s the best option - otherwise hes risking his job if results aren’t favourable. (Where Collins is right now)

    Exactly we would have sent him out on loan if not ready to play yet. We clearly do think he is but just not ready to start games yet.
