So on the view that loan moves make a player a journeyman, said poster is saying that Joe Bryan, Bobby Reid, Zac Vyner Antoine Semenyo, Taylor Moore & Max O’Leary amongst others are ‘Journeymen’! WOW!

Always returning to their home club - Bristol City..............:cool2:

CM has had lots of clubs and exactly why he’s a journeyman and if you see that term as negative then that’s your choice.

Robbered, that's the point I made but you seem to have missed it, 'having a lot of clubs' is an incorrect  (some might say ill-informed) definition of 'journeyman'.  The correct usage is somewhat negative.

 
Journeyman
 
 noun
  1. 1.
    a worker or sports player who is reliable but not outstanding.
    "a solid journeyman professional"

Oxford’s English dictionaries are widely regarded as the world’s most authoritative sources on current English.

Hallelujah.

A journeyman wasn't typically badly thought of btw, it was a rung on the ladder between apprentice and master.
