Benjamin Brereton

Tammy Abraham anyone?
The problem of getting a quality player in on loan is how much game time can we give them - Grabban is first choice hence minimising the opportunity for the loan player ( with Murphy, Brereton & Soudani also banging on the managers door ).

BB has to show he is hungry, he wants a chance.

Grabban is working hard up front and when the chance comes, and it will, to BB then he has to take it.

There will be nobody else to blame if he fails.

Its up to him to work hard in training, hit the back of the net in training and show he is ready for a chance.

I still think AK will get an experienced striker on loan before the end of the loan window.

Loan until Jan, a big name that's been left out of some squad somewhere.

Every team in the league wants an experienced striker, problem is they aren’t available for loan unless they have either lost form, coming back from injury or are just past it and taking up wages somewhere else.
More likely is a loan of an up and coming striker from the prem who needs game time. But thats just plain odd when we already have Ben sitting there clamouring for a game.
You say its up to him to show in training and I wonder if that is the issue, its an non negotiable for AK to work hard, wonder if he is moaning a bit?

Suspect you’re right - Brereton ( or his agent ) stirring the pot.
