I was ecstatic too, as I had seen this kid Swindlehurst form a deadly partnership with another youth team striker called Paul Hinshelwood. I was expecting a star to be born, Sadly, the game didn't work out that way. Palace lost 1-4 at home, and poor Swindlehurst looked utterly crushed. So I think going in too early might ruin a kid's confidence. Then again, I am no exert on these matters, and I'm prepared to listen to the many informed pundits who, for some inexplicable reason, shun the chance to manage Barcelona and spend their evenings on the Holmesdale.net forum. Pundits, fill me in! Agreed. The only reason that someone like Rashford, as in my example, was played was because of a depleted squad. If someone like Wilf were to disappear for longer than a few weeks, would Sully fill a void? Or would we better to re-invest in a proven player?

He scored on his debut against newcastle after being on the pitch for 10 mins, looked great against southampton on his league debut, had a great spell at shrewsbury on loan, and is playing ok at brentford

He thinks he's decent but still has a lot to add to his game. And short of what's required at the top level at the moment.

Not really done enough while on loan. He has made the step up and looks like a championship player which is progress. He needs to kick on after his brace and nail down a starting role. Leave him where he is, at the end of the season he may be worth a look in. He had 3/4 chances against Cardiff and scored probably the hardest 2 he just needs a bit more consistency. I think he has potential but is some way off. I think he probably needs to develop at Brentford for the rest of the season (they play good football down there) and next season I'd send him on loan to a top championship club chasing promotion for 6 months.
