Lets be honest, no matter how good he was doing if he was still at Chelsea he wouldn't be anywhere near the 1st team. If Josh can't get minutes than no-one from our reserves/youth team will get minutes he would prob be out on loan. I thought watching him he blew hot and cold and seemed to make alot of wrong decisions, will say i haven't seen much of him this season though.
The McEachran situation has nothing to do with this - you have pretty good players in central midfield, that's why he doesn't get games. However, when you're playing Malouda or Kalou it's not hard to see where Töre would fit in. He's been pretty darn good for HSV this season.
