Can't have been. Beardsley ran like a cheetah.

Wonder where he could play - he wouldn't displace Longstaff or Willock IMO. 

[Klaus]

Probably suggests our transfer expectations have been diminished.

[Guest reefatoon]

Great news. Looking forward to seeing what he can bring.

[Bimpy474]

Or probably suggests he's been good in training and the pre season games, and the manager wants to give him the chance he's earned.

I think it's just clear he's already better than some of our squad players like Murphy and maybe even Almiron and Fraser.

We'd be mad to let him go on loan now anyway.

 

Reassess near the end of the window and if we've strengthened substantially let him go out on loan

[Holloway]

He's going up directly against Willock for game time imo,a lot of his best moments last season were from the left but he did pop up on the right on occasion and looked dangerous there,too. Super excited to see what he can do at this level

[McCormick]

You can forget Paqueta if Howe is wanting to play this guy in midfield.

 

Not that I ever thought it was likely.

Honestly I’m excited o see the lad given a chance. He really looked to have something about him in that Mainz game.

Hardly he mad to let a 19 year old with only half a season of league 2 football under his belt go out on loan.

[STM]

I'd rather give him until Xmas here, training with Bruno and if he's not getting game time we can give him a loan in January.

[GeordieDazzler]

With the five subs he’ll get plenty of game time 

[WillingtonMag]

Five subs is a shocking decision mind.

[St1pe]

 

Edwards straight in with the negative twist on the story. It’s possible he’s impressed in training rather than it being transfer related. If the decision has been made so far away from the window ending it suggests that to me. Loans often don’t happen until the end.

To be fair he smashed league 2, got us promoted in style. In 21 games he had a goal or assist every other game.

 

This boy is special, looking forward to see how he performs this season, convinced this lad has a career at the top level on his doorstep at 19.

 

He has no fear, very strong on the ball. Easy from a Rovers perspective to see why Eddie Howe has opted to have him in the squad.  

 

[Rafalove]

I like Billy but “wonderkid”, is a very loose way to describe him.

He needs to go on loan to a Championship club.  I trust Eddie though, whatever he thinks.

[gdm]

Let’s see how he does fri/sat. He did struggle a bit tonight 

[Gallowgate Toon]

He's a young player learning the game who will have some bad/invisible games regardless of the standard. Micro analysing a preseason performance as a barometer of whether he should stay or not isn't the best approach. Howe will take it all into account (probably training more than anything else at this point) and make a well informed decision.
