Yeah, probably.

On that subject, WOL are saying today:
"While many believe all of the under-21s should be getting loans in Leagues One and Two, it's of course not as simple as that, with lots of Championship and Premier League clubs offering up their best youngsters to teams in those divisions.
It means Cardiff will have to get creative again this summer, opting for players' first loans to be in non-League or in the Cymru Premier, while players heading out on their second or third loans will be more attractive to teams in the EFL. That's the thought process, anyway."

It's clearly not easy to create a path from academy to first team, but I really struggle to see the value in some of these loans. I wonder what other championship clubs are doing. Do they also struggle to find league one and two loans for their players?
