Craig Lindfield, one of the many heroes in the Academy's FA Youth Cup winning-run last year, has been loaned out to Notts County. The 19-year-old from Wirral scored 7 goals to help lead the young Reds to their second consecutive trophy. Lindfield has also featured for the England U19 side, playing seven matches for the Young Lions and scoring three goals.
He will join the Magpies on a month-long loan. The League Two side currently sit 18th on the table with 14 points from 13 matches, finding themselves 14 points off the pace of leaders MK Dons and 5 points clear of the relegation zone with a -7 goal difference. Lindfield could get the chance to square off against fellow on-loan Liverpool player James Smith at Stockport County.
From what I've seen of Lindfield, which is only a handful of matches I might add, he appears to typify the typical poacher. Some may take that as an insult, but don't, a class poacher which Lindfield has the attributes to become can be a vital member of the squad. Think Ruud Van Nistelroy.
