In fact...would be interesting to find out if other teams have loaned out players with them coming back revitalised
I reckon they would be almost non existent too

Defoe springs to mind, when he scored 13 in 10 or something silly for Bournemouth as an embryo.

Ched Evans at Norwich?
Thing is, we're only now becoming a top club, so the chances of a precedent are slim.
Its a rarity in general anyway in England, but it happens in Spain and Italy a fair bit...

We loaned in Van Buyten not the other way around...the clue was in the 'Loaned Out' bit ;-)

You pondered over whether other teams had loaned out and they'd come back better. DVB was one such example.

Actually, my original question posed in the other thread was
Have any clubs loaned out players who have returned from their loans and performed well (and remained happy) at the clubs who had originally loaned them out
ie. they weren't sold on, nor did they sink from view, or agitate for a move elsewhere and instead gave decent (not even necessarily improved but at least more than adequate) service to the club that owns them
