These guys need loans.
Townsend, Falque and Carroll are good enough to be squad players for lower or mid-table EPL teams. Smith is also being mentioned with regards to leaving Millwall where he has been doing well, and spending the second half of the season on loan in the Prem.
Mason had so much promise but too many injuries have left him a bit behind.
People at the club still believe he will make it as a Premier League player but it would be good if we could get him a loan to a team in the top half of the Championship.
Personally I think he could go back to Millwall if we recall Smith. He didn't get much of a chance there last year because of the form of Kane, but he knows the club and players which would mean he could get stuck in straight away.
I have heard that Harry has interest in taking Smith on loan at QPR which would be a decent move.
Who can we tempt into developing our players for us? My preferred options would be Townsend - Reading, Carroll - Southampton, Falque - Wigan.
Townsend, Falque, Carroll, Mason, Smith.

I agree with most of those names. I think Townsend is read to play first team for Spurs though. He has proven he can do it.

Not for a full 90 he hasn't. He has shown that he is effective in cameo roles. I would keep him though as a good bench option

Morning everyone,
@S.Mouse
It was Strange on Falque i see the offers on paper and they all began with B. Brighton (as lilywhite mentioned), Blackburn and Burnley.
Im sure It will be Blackburn as Tim Sherwood still has buddies there despite the wacky venkys.
@8bit
You know as of right now. We have the best youth teams in the country. Check the tables and the results buddy

We play really young players in the reserves, most of the reserves best players are always on loan.
And we have 2 English academy players who start in our first XI and more young British talent than probably all other top teams now.
