Nope, although I haven't got a fucking clue whats going on with the internet in the UK since I've been on holiday for a couple of weeks. Shit show of a country but I'm guessing it's still ok.
Yeh that's what I said haha
Imo you either sell or do a loan with obligation if that's not possible or you commit to saying we believe in this players ability to develop and just do a straight loan.
Loan with an option is the worst option available from our point of view with no benefit.
Yeh that's what I mean as I believe an option is just that, an option. I'd rather it be an obligation so it's just a done piece of business that's confirmed even if he flops.
Don't understand a loan with an option to buy. If he's shit they won't take it and we're stuck with an asset of lower value than what we got it for, if he does really well they potentially get him on the cheap.
Don't see how that option benefits us.
Good player and a player often mentioned on championship podcasts and such as a reason we're expected to do well. Think we can expect more from him next season too.
To throw in a positive, isn't it nice that our middling/squad players hold some decent value. I know we've had a couple of players worth a lot before but generally the bulk of the squad for many years was worth the grand sum of fuck all.
