I can remember Thibaut Courtois spending at least three seasons on loan from Chelsea to Athletico Madrid - but that was basically one loan deal that was renewed season from season. I can never remember a player being loaned to the same club three seasons running on the basis of three separate loan deals. It's credit to Sutton that Millwall have done this - particularly as there were clearly a number of clubs that wanted to take Tanto on loan. To be fair, his first loan was curtailed by the season ending due to Covid. And I'd say it would have been very unlikely he would have been with us if we were playing in the National League this season.

Still nothing official on the Millwall website or our website; yet the loan transfer of Alex Mitchell to Orient was posted at 4.00pm and appeared on the BBC website.( He's the other youngster that Rowett said was going out on loan with Tanto) What is going on i'm nervous?

I agree with Andy K that we need to trust the manager. I also agree with halftimet that if Isaac does rejoin us today he wouldn't so much be 'coming back' as making a late start to this season. With due respect to the (very good) players that Andy identified as perhaps not being so good second-time around, they were not highly rated 21 year olds with a Championship club who finished as our top goal scorer in a Championship winning season the season before. I'm sure that Manchester United are hoping that their new signing won't be a shadow of his former self the second time round. I would also respectfully suggest that Louis John is a much better player now than he was during his first spell at the club (when he was already very good). I would also respectfully suggest that while there are certainly no guarantees, one player of sufficient quality can make a big difference at EFL League 2 level. Hartlepool currently have Tyler Burey, a promising young Millwall winger on loan. He laid on the winning goal in their first league game of the season and he has scored in all of the next three league games. Hartlepool are currently 5th in the league. Excellent summary of why it's good that Tanto is back with us, without assuming that the guy is immediately going to walk upon water or lead us out of some catastrophe that hasn't actually happpened. Imo.

I still can't see that it's been confirmed on the club site or the BBC.

He was at the game tonight saying hi to the players as they warmed up. Nice to see him eager. I'm pretty sure Matt also invited him back to changung rooms to take part in team talk which was nice to see..
