It was good to hear the news that Michael Keane and Jesse Lingard have gone out on loan, to championship club Leicester City. Fergie has sent them to a fair sized club, so he seems to have faith that they will be get the game time that will get them the experience they will require. I'm suprised it's only for a month, but i suppose Leicester and United want to see how it goes before they decide on a lengthier period of time.
The two games Keane has appeared in during our league cup run, showed that he has ability and the Chelsea tie showed he probably has the temperament. It was a pity that Lingard didn't get a run out, but with games against premier league opponents and Anderson and Fletcher needing games, it wasn't to be. This is possibly an even bigger move for Lingard, who needs to show he can translate potential into ability. I like him, he's one of those players who always seems to take the eye, my only worry for him, is what position he will be able to make his own.
It was rumoured, Robbie Brady might be about to go back to Hull City on loan, and once again that's got to be a good move for him. I'll have to say though, he must be a bit disappointed at a wasted first half to the season for him. I was sceptical about Fergie having a look at him at left back in pre-season, but after seeing Buttner's handful of games for the club, i'm pretty sure he would have done at least as well there. I was suprised at Buttner's arrival and unfortunately it still doesn't make much sense. It will be interesting to see where Hull play the Irish left sided player.
Music
Liars - WIXIW: As the reviews of this mentioned this is a band who don't stand still, each new offering might as well be a different band. I took a few listens to get into this, but when it clicked, as usual after listening with headphones, i was hooked on the latest incarnation.
Santigold - Master of my make believe: I don't know why they've changed the name, but the music is pretty similar to that on the debut album, maybe a more beat heavy electro pop. As with the first there are a couple of killer tracks on it, the rest aren't bad either. It's not something i could listen to again and again, but i've no doubt others could.
Sofrito - international soundclash: I love this mix of mainly African and latin American compilation, i should think their club night's are something else.
The dB's - Falling of the sky: I had not heard any of this early 80's US power pop outfit's original output, but read good reviews of this reunion album. It's pretty good, not earth shattering, but enjoyable enough. It veers off into country rock at times, a poppier version of Tom Petty.
The travelling band - Screaming is something: I saw this Mancuian soft/country rock act a few years back at a free Spinningfields gig and thought they were a group to follow. This is pretty good, definitely a grower, they can write a hook. I hardly ever listen to the radio anymore, but i'd describe them as radio friendly.
TY Segall and white fence - Hair: A blinding bit of modern garage rock from the prolific Californian, i'm not sure why people listen to the modern variations of heavy metal and heacy rock when there's brillaint dirty scuzzy guitar rock like this about.
