Just seen he's joined borussia monchengladbach on a seasons long loan.
Seems like an odd one.

Not sure why it's odd, he needed to go somewhere where he will play regularly, especially after last season's dreadful loan at Reading. Christensen, the young Chelsea defender, has just spent a very successful 2 seasons there and has come along well. Also, there have been various rumours about Oxford's attitude, thinking he has already made it, billy big spuds, not putting the effort in etc, being away from home should do him the world of good. I really can't see this as anything other than a superb move for him, and us.

Totally agree.
Get him out of London so he can concentrate on football.
They are a good side in a tough league and it will be a good experience for him.

I just can't see him playing much, considering they're a better team than we are.
Hopefully that isn't the case then.

This could be great for him, but I can't help wondering why we can't coach him ourselves and give him a chance in our team.

Not sure if he is at the level to start for them week in week out
Also would like to of seen him have a chance pre-season
Still hopefully he can get some games under his belt and develop as a player and a person
Got a feeling a bottom half championship side would be better for him though

Toughen him up. Competitive league. Part of his learning process. Can't see it being a bad move.

This is the type of thing fergie would do with promising youngsters, get them an education.

Let's hope he doesn't fail so miserably at this loan, the badly advised billy big bollocks cunt.

BMG are a better side than us, so why would they want him?
its a sad state of affairs that people believe he can learn things there that we cant coach.

This seems to indicate that Bilic has the likes of Burke ahead of Oxford.

I reckon this has got more to do with getting him away from his 'entourage' than anything else.

Hopefully get his head down and get in the side. Its a strong league to play in and i think it can only benefit him
He's definitely not ready for our 1st team yet but a year away playing for the side can only help imo

You would have thought after that Arsenal game he would have kicked on and be one of the best young players in the PL if not the world, but no, that August day nearly 2 years ago was the pinnacle of his career, this move maybe the last chance saloon otherwise he’s in the same boat and going the same way as Ravel Morrison…………………….
Good luck Reece

Does seem odd. Though that's typical of our youth policy. No chance to assess him pre-season. No desire to actually include him. If he plays there then we'll all say 'why isn't he in our team?'. If he doesn't we'll say 'why loan him somewhere to be a reserve again?'.

On his debut at just 16 he proved to everyone that he had the talent and potential to become a top player there and then.
Personally, I think we have failed to nurture that raw talent and potential.
We are loaning young players out to whoever offers us a decent fee. A season playing week in week out in the championship would set him up for the first team the season after.
I hope he gets regular game time in Germany but I cant see it happening. He must have reassurances from the club otherwise why would he agree to such a move.

Fucking ridiculous loan. We should have brought him through last season instead of him wasting his time at Reading, and us buying a 33 year old bang average Fonte.

This has all the hallmarks of Freddy Sears mkII don't be surprised when he is one of those "Where is he now questions" in 3-4 years. We big youngsters up too much; heap all the pressure on then rip them to pieces when they don't come up to expectations quickly. He needs to be left alone for the season and hopefully will come back a better player.

I am beginning to loathe Bilic and his penchant for his persistence in signing shit OAP'S over blooding undoubted up and coming talent.

Is it because our younger players are not getting the right coaching in their particular position!
Shame Bilic couldn't give Oxford the benefit of all of his experience and bring him on,
