A bit of a run in the Blackburn side, scoring a few and according to a mate who supports them he seems like he's up for it every minute he's on the pitch. Great that he got Blackburn's equalising goal tonight, doing Wednesday a massive favour even when he's not in one of our shirts! But...anyone seriously suggesting that we should recall him and start him ahead of the strikers we do have needs to have a word with themselves. It's a shame that Rhodes and Winnall haven't bagged 5 each yet, but I'd still rather have them starting than Joao as it stands. He would still be 4th/5th choice striker if he was back, so I'd much rather him be at Elwood Park getting game time and goals in the hope that when he's back with us he has the confidence to score more. But...that said I'm still hugely happy for the lad, massive goal for him (and us!) tonight. UTO. Aye. I'm genuinely excited by the potential of Winnall and Rhodes as a partnership. No matter how this season ends, next season we'll have a fantastic front line. Lucas has bags of potential too. Carlos might just have played a blinder sending him on loan.

ANDY Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Is it just a basic loan, or option to buy ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gurujuan Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 I agreed with sending him out on loan, as with the way Carlos wants us to play, he simply wasn't going to get games Not sure this is the right way to though, we seem to have lost something since we started packing the side with championship journeymen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newbster Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Can bet blackburn will come in for him on a permanent deal if we go up i say go with our blessing but if not we could do with his pace he could very frightening with a bit of confidence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There needs to be an inquest into why he wasn't performing while he was here. Terrible decision to loan him out, especially when we can barely score. (Apart from the Norwich game).

SupremeOwl Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 (edited) Well that goal just made my week. Got to say I felt pretty deflated with the thought of the situation we were about to be forced into but thankfully agent joao was to the rescue when we needed him most. Really hope we go for it against reading. We need to be up for every game now and if we maintain it then we could still make something of this season.

EccOvOwl Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Why have we kept Fletcher and loaned Joao to Blackburn.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash77 Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Regressed this season but 1 of few of our players with pace, better bench/away option than fletch/winnall now, but with more mental strength/maturity/self belief could put a fit hooper on bench too. Hope he realises his potential with us but will probably be gone in summer and do an afobe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salmonbones Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 The best place for Lucas Joao right now, is right where he is. The best place for Lucas Joao at the start of next season is in our squad, fighting for a starting position after filling his boots and getting hungry for football again. For me, more natural talent then Winall, just not the aggression to make it happen - yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest RocketOwl Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Same amount as goals as Rhodes I'm far less minutes and for a team battling the drop. Just saying. Why couldnt we show how the same faith in Joao that we are showing in Rhodes. That's the question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utah Owl Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Would be brilliant if we get into the play-offs (and win them of course) courtesy of the goals that Joao scores against our rivals for a play off spot. Keep up the good work Lucas, it is thoroughly appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
