I'd be happy for all of them to go out on loan, if a midfielder comes in. If not, I'd like Harper to stay as back up.

Field has played a couple of times this year and looked very poor IMO. From what I've seen, he looks a lower league player so there's no way we can chance him in the first team at the moment. A loan will be a good opportunity to see if he's actually any good.

With Burke going, it might be worth keeping Leko as cover, but at the same time, he's well down the pecking order. He showed glimpses on Saturday but also showed massive moments of nativity when in good positions. He needs to play more to learn the game and he's not learning much when he's not even getting on the bench for the first team.

Well, it has just been Christmas.
