Do you know of any examples of youngsters who’ve gone to Belgium for a season and then come back and made a mark in the Championship? Not a rhetorical question, I haven’t got a clue if it’s beneficial or not.
That's a fair question. Manchester United used to farm players out to Royal Antwerp, although that's not your question. I'd say that it's a different type of football, completely different to the rigours of the championship.
