Loan fee would probably be bigger than the transfer fee we got for him. Plus much higher wages. |  | |  |

I quite like Fulton too but definitely do not see him covering for Laird’s position - his only chance would be IF we went back to 4 at the back but feels like Fulton’s ship has long since sailed. |  | |  |

Mate,I agree on a like for like basis but we can utilise Fulton. Player are leaving us with no replacements lined up.Madness. |  |

Bournemouth are a million miles ahead of us on and off the field so it's not rocket science to understand why United would want him there. Think its an opportunity for us to recall Garrick and try him out for the second half of the season. |  |

Who has had a go at Martin? People are making the same point you have just made. His development would see greater benefit at a team that wins and attacks than one that doesn’t do much of either. That’s just reality, it’s not really having a go at anyone. |  |

Wouldn’t argue on Fulton but I guess it’s still very early with possibly two weeks before we play again & recall is always the risk with loan players. Let’s hope Silverstein & Allen have some options lined up! |  | |  |

See the other post started by Risc and read through that. I don't think Bournemouth are in for him for being poor with us this season, clear that United see Bournemouth as a better option.....his success in the first half of the season under Martin's guidance is a clear indication to what United will see as a progression onto Bournemouth. Seems that some fans of United are indicating that because Bournemouth play a back 4 is a reason towards the move, going to a back 4 is something that I would certainly like to see Martin look into going forward. |  |

We own him, he has pace and now has games under his belt. Seems to be the ideal solution. |  |

In fairness he’s done very little playing wide so maybe try him in a position he’s never played. I’d imagine there will be a few posters waiting to blame Russ when it goes tits up |  | |  |

I agree on the first sentence but if you are a manager the buck stop with you. Fact Martin is unknown,completely;he has no record that could make us feel confident. I genuinely feel disgusted we are being conned by this fella ;we have a majority of ood ,decent honest folk for fans and I dont like what I am seeing. I would lobe to be anguine but ,right now,it's impossible. We are also being hammered by Covid so that doesnt help. |  |

Laird leaving is a huge blow. |  |

Bound to impact on our plans |  | |  |
| Ethan Laird recalled by Manchester United on 15:29 - Jan 2 with 1329 views | LittleEnglandJack | Understandable in fairness, Man U probably just want to get him some game time... rate we're going at he won't have kicked a ball in anger for us for over a month In all seriousness it's a right kick in the knackers as he was one of the few outlets we actually have in the team. We're definitely going to need to be in the market for some pace or we could find ourselves in trouble. Anyway, I can't imagine Ethan is particularly thrilled by this himself, he's on the record saying how much he loves playing for Russ and is enjoying himself down here. |  | |  |
| Ethan Laird recalled by Manchester United on 15:31 - Jan 2 with 1323 views | Chief | Seen a few on twitter calling for Garrick to be recalled to replace him. I know he played at wing back in cup game for us once but apparently he hasn't played there at all for Plymouth this season, he's not the answer. |  |

I like Garrick as a winger but not wing back. I liked Laird as much for his interaction with the crowd and delight in playing as much for his ability. |  |

Always liked to play up to the crowd and yes mostly with a smile on his face |  |

He has played there for them this season. Left and right wing back. Saw him against Newport in the Trophy game earlier in the season and he was a fish out of water, but supposedly he has improved. Has pace but he's no defender, and doesn't have the delivery from wide areas to suggest he'd excel there for us. Hope he stays where he is to continue building his career at a level he's comfortable at. |  | |  |
