Playing about 60 minutes in four games either emphasises the point that he's made a big impact and should be kept, or reiterates the point that his game time might be limited, 60 minutes since January 1st isn't much (or it suggests a mix of both)
If Monk plans on giving him at least 20-30 minutes semi-often then the choice to keep him is a no brainer to me, if not then the club may well consider a loan for the benefit of his development. Until we know what the plans for him are with a fully fit squad then it's that simple for me.
I suspect he'll stay. I can see us going with a two quite often so we'll need four strikers (assuming we sign someone)

Don't mind him being loaned out, but not to that horrid club.

Luton’s Joe Taylor looking like he’s going to Huddersfield. I was rather hoping he might come our way after not having been snapped up earlier.

I kind of what us to sign another defender though, just to see the "iTs StRiKeRs We NeEd 😡😡😡" comments. Which we do, obviously, but it's always the same certain characters who foam at the mouth.

Rightly bleeding so as well. Strang is stealing a living every day that he fails to simply conjure a 40+ goal striker, for free, out of thin air. It’s like he’s not even trying.

I think it might push a few more than just the usual types over the edge if the next signing is a defender.
It'd be worth it for the meltdown, I'd be so angry I'd strangulate whoever was responsible.

We are waiting to send a young player on a pre-agreed loan until we sign somebody, so I know the club is trying. I know they’ve been very close to getting a forward in a couple of times in the last couple of weeks but for whatever reason it hasn’t happened. Modern football I guess. There is, of course, the possibility that those plans may need to be shelved if the club aren't able to get any more deals done before the deadline.

F) We sign anyone other than a number '9'.
E) would be funniest, but I think I'll go for B. I'm not sure what style of 9 I'm expecting or what sort of signing I'm expecting though. At this point I could believe we're signing a guy with one leg or that we've lumped some cash on a up and coming lower league player who scored 20 goals last year.
F) is possible but only if we sell Lennett I'd think.
