Do we expect any of these guys to make it with us?

Axel started 21 games so far for Villa becoming their first choice CB
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will get an 'excellent report' if he phones Aston Villa manager Dean Smith about on-loan defender Axel Tuanzebe.
United have been in the market for a centre-half to strengthen their back line since last summer but failed to buy anyone during the last transfer window.
Numerous big-money names were linked with moves to Old Trafford in the summer and Jose Mourinho openly spoke about his disappointment that he didn't get the central defender he was after.
United are still understood to be in the market for a defender, although they're not expected to sign anyone before Thursday's deadline, but Smith believes they have the answer to their problems in 21-year-old Tuanzebe.
“If Ole wants to ring me, I’ll give him an excellent report on Axel,” Smith said.
He came here as a right-back. But I always felt he had the capabilities to be a really good centre-half. He is proving that. He has really grown here. He is showing an awful lot of composure. His awareness has also got better, perhaps with experience of playing.
“He is quick, no question about that. But his understanding of the game has improved, so he doesn’t need to rely on his pace as much. He can bring the ball out. He can pass. He can see the feet of our forwards, and hit them accurately.
“His injury has come at a bad time for us. We have certainly missed his composure.
“I think the reason why United wanted him to come here is because he would be playing in front of 30,000-plus crowds pretty much every week at Villa Park. Manchester United play in front of double that amount of people, but Villa Park is still a daunting prospect for players — you need to have the right character to be able to do it like Axel.
“Not everyone can.”

Enjoyed that watching it earlier. Unfortunate time to spit though.

Really hard to know what to do with him. Been getting rave reviews all season but he's not going to get much football here at the moment, so no point him going from spending a season starting games to then come here as back up and play a few cup games all season.

Read some words from him saying he'd like to stay there next season but also that he wants to be ours and England's number one in the future.
If there's zero chance of him being given a shot here for us next season then we should sign that loan deal tomorrow. Don't want him coming back here and being a back up on the bench when he could get a full season in the Premier League.

Aye, he has helped them get promotion so would love to see how he gets on with them in the Prem next season.

yeh let him stay there another season on loan. keep romero as back up and buy a new keeper if we have to. we have lee grant as a 3rd choice theres no need brining Henderson back
definitely bring Axel back though.
hopefully TFM can recover from his injury and play a part for us next year in some way. theres no point loaning him out again as the last two loans haven't worked out for him
