To the best of my knowledge his Malaga loan spell finished at the end of last season. Surely we should either be seeing if he's improved or at least banging him in the shop window by giving the lad some game time.

Only watched the highlights, but he looked sharp, quick, strong (what the fuck!), two-footed and committed. I was surprised. He obviously has ability. Can we get the best out of him? Does he deserve another go if he gets his head down? Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't he still only 20/21? Still really young.
And Doug, have you seen Caicedo?

I think you should watch again.......but this time take off the black bin liner from your head.

Haha. Like I said I only watched the highlights. That move down the right in the first half between Ireland and Jo and the final ball from Jo to Bellamy were sublime. Later in the half, he got away from the centre-half from a beautifully-weighted Ireland through-ball and was hacked down, resulting in the lad getting booked. If he was otherwise shit for 70 or however many minutes, then I take back my comments, but I'm only going off of what I saw. There's a surprise hero or comeback kid every season (think Ireland in 08/09). Perhaps if Jo keeps his head down.... But maybe not, who knows. He DID look sharp though, and I'm having no comeback on that. I'll just wait for someone to agree with me!
