I've not seen much of Harvey but he seems to be well thought of. He's only 22 and the club seems to be trying to get him as much experience as possible via loan deals. For those in the know - any thoughts on the following:

1) How does he compare with Chan and Eseh?

2) Do we think that he'll be pushing for first team starts next season?

3) Is he a realistic replacement for Byrne or Hill?

1) From what I've seen Makin is a steady yards maker and very effective at Reserves level, perhaps shows up better than Chan and Eseh. Eseh seems to have the greater potential but i's like to see Makin have some first team minutes to be sure.

2) I think yes

3) I think maybe
