Peterborough have signed forward Callum Morton on loan from West Bromwich Albion until the end of the season.
Morton, 21, having spent the first half of the season on loan at League One Fleetwood, scoring/ed seven goals in 22 appearances.

Posh boss Darren Ferguson then said:
"He is slightly different to what we have got in the building," and then went on to say "particularly as Jack Marriott is injured and Ricky-Jade Jones is only just on the way back to fitness."


His rhetoric/choice of words made me laugh

What happened to that young chinese guy we bought and shipped out on loan 2yrs back?
He was supposed to have been brilliant but lacked experience.

I'd still give Ijahi (oop's)a chance up front - he has height and knows how to score

 Any answers? Someone must know.

Zhang Yuning - he joined in 2017 and left in 2019 for Beijing Guoan in the Chinese Super League.

I presume he was released for nothing as his move was never really mentioned. During his time here had 2 loan spells away and they were complete flops so I guess we just wanted him off the wage bill, as he was bizarrely reported to be a high earner. He didn't play a game for Werder Breman in a season there and played just a handful for Den Haag in the Netherlands without scoring. I presume the fact he couldn't even get into a very average Dutch side made us realise we had purchased a pig in a poke.

He's still at Beijing Guoan now. He's not the only familiar name at the club either... His manager, Mr Slaven Bilic.

He does actually score goals for them and for the Chinese national team, but it's a much inferior league. Any striker worth their salt tends to get at least a goal every other game in that league and he's not at that strike rate.

His strike partner Cedric Bakambu tends to score about 2 in 3 and could play at a higher level (actually did well in Spain) but is just a mercenary who moved to China when the were paying the astronomical salaries like Graziano Pelle, Oscar, Rondon etc. Zhang is probably at his level there.

 A great answer to my query - thanks.
