Don't agree at all.
It remains to be seen whether this lad will fulfil the potential he once showed. We certainly don't have the scope at present in the Villa side to give him some games to see if he is going to make it or not - we simply don't have enough points to play with.
So a loan spell seems the perfect solution to give him some game time and allow him to show what he can do and build up his confidence/match readiness.
And if he doesn't develop to Premiership level, there is a good chance Leeds would take him back, I guess.
Good management by McLeish I would say.
It just seems a joke we bought him for millions from Leeds and now we are loaning him back to Leeds.
are Delph , Makoun really that bad?
OK to be fair to McLeish yes he did give Delph a run in the side early this season and he was pretty awful.
He did look good and promising before his injury tho.
