I don't think he is ready to waltz into the team yet and start scoring goals at a 10 a season rate and nobody is saying that but he might well be a player to come into the squad, show what he is worth and maybe get some game time even if it's onkly in the cups. Alternatively he goes on loan and somewhere like BBurn sounds a decent opportunity. Not that they are the kind of team that has looked to build through midfield but it's a very competitive league and would be an excellent test for him.

I am not sure 10 goals a season is a fair target either but I do agree with TS that he definitely has goals in his game. Didn't he score 5 or 6 in one of the under 19's European campaigns? Mucg better and likley finisher than Silva I would say.

Is he still going to Rovers as nothing has been signed yet or mentioned it seems. They started ther pre season already too.

A report was made from their first preseason meet this morning,and while he wasn't named,it was stated 4 players had been brought in,3 permanent and 1 loan.
 
Born winner this kid,passion,enthusiasm and the will to succeed by the bucket load - given he's also developing into a very intelligent and technical midfield conductor.....it should ensure he's destined for a very bright future.

I'm very excited to see how he develops.
 
Looked reasonable from what bits I've seen of him perhaps due to him being a bit more physically developed than the other EDS lads.

I'd have liked to see him this pre-season but he's only young and a good season at Blackburn could get him i next seasons thoughts with Pep.
 
I think Gunn and Bryan should be the next two to go out on loan to a Championship squad.

Can't wait to see how Byrne develops over the next year. He can really put himself in a prime position for our first team by this time next season.

So there's 1 year left on his contract when he returns. This situation needs to be fixed. Actually it's annoying it hasn't been fixed yet, or before loaning Jack out.

Let's see how he does at Blackburn! To be honest he'd need to have a storming season to warrant a place in our squad otherwise we would probably be looking to move him on and with a year left that's fine.

A good interview with Jack seems to have his head screwed on and is taking nothing for granted.

Judging from that it looks like City were shopping him around for loans and he decided on Blackburn himself. Hopefully that doesn't mean City don't rate him and just that they think he needs senior football to develop. Would love to see him at least get a chance at City before moving on if he isn't up to it

I would like to see him in comparison to Silva, Nasri etc, working alongside our best players in a strong team, right now but it may be because of the limited time available to work with the senior players, that it's not happening this summer.

Pity imo. He might have put the shits up them.
 
As said he has a point to prove I think with some of the EDS involved with the first team at the moment Jack be thinking he is on par if not better than the lads involved at the moment with the senior squad.

That may well be the reason he isn't there though. He has stepped ahead of them & therefore has to play regular first team football rather than come off the bench for a cameo.
 
Imagine if Pellers was still in charge and Byrne left on loan before our season started. The reactions in here would have been slightly different to say the least haha
