He’s played a decent number of games there and is back to fitness from his injury at the end of last season. With the injury crisis we’re having it makes zero sense having him out there (he was an unused sub today as Hoolahan’s playing in his favoured position), we can then let Gibbs continue to earn his trade in the U23s or even at a national league club.
I’d be disappointed (but probably not surprised) if we left him at Cambs - he may not play as many for us here as he would there but we could really have done with him over the last six weeks or so.
Maybe the injuries will abate and it didn’t turn out to be the best decision for him but we need bodies right now, and he has looked the part every time I’ve seen him in action for us or Cambridge. |  |

Given the injuries are looking to be clearing up given the break I suspect he will be left there.
Also noticed today their CF has 17 goals in 19 games.

I don't have a particularly high level of confidence that the injuries will stay cleared up though, so I'd rather see him come back. Though if we do get him back, we'll probably not see any more CM injuries this season, which would be nice.
I may be paranoid due to too much Scotch tonight, but we do seem to be the Unlucky Alf of the football world! |  |

Not convinced he has played that much at Cambridge, as you say he's competing with Hoolahan and seems to get a game when Hoolahan needs a rest |  |

I should point out, if you think 3rd division football is bad, you should see the absolute guff played in the 4th and by Cambridge United. We need some experience of this league more than we need more youth players/ |  |

According to stats I've looked at he has only played 327 minutes so IMO a waste of time he would have played more if he had stayed here, Dobra who didn't go out on loan has played 326 minutes. |  | | |

Well it also means he can't get in ahead of Hoolahan and would you have him in our team at 38?
If he was performing better that Hoolahan then he would be playing I assume.

I agree that we should recall him, but with a view to getting him another loan elsewhere as opposed to bringing him back here.
He needs game time to develop, he wont get that here and he is not getting enough at Cambridge for my liking either. The ideal scenario would be to get him another loan at a club where he is as good as guaranteed to start. |  | | |

Almost no guarantees anywhere, though. If the standard is professional and tough enough, then whoever the club, they are no more likely to extend time to a gifted novice than we are if the gifts come at the price of occasional lapses of grizzled guile and full-on physical heft.
Many of those feted on here are loaned out for those very same reasons in the hope of them becoming the more complete package. But, especially, in leagues where the physical side is expected to play an even greater part, they then fail to set the host club on fire. Mizouni, or anyone else, needs to become an automatic pick at his loan club (which he hasn't been) before lambert, or anyone else, begins to see him as the great solution. | |

You make some good points. He does need to toughen up and get the regular experience of competitive Men's football as opposed to the U23's. I just think he needs minutes on the pitch and Hoolahan seems to be standing in his way at Cambridge, maybe a drop down to the national league or perhaps Scotland would suit. | | | |

Given the choice of Hoolahan or Judge I would probably go for Hoolahan, even at 38!
What a club ( to quote another well known poster ). | | | |
