He moved to Cardiff when very, very young and then grew up there until he moved to Man city at 16 so why shouldn't he feel Welsh and be able to play for them?
Totally agree with you, isn't it?

Sorry got mixed up was getting a nagging off my wife at the same time 🤯

If you had listened to her, she was probably just saying "You have got that mixed up for starters.". 😂

I'd rather he got a full season playing 40+ games at a decent level, high end league 1 would be fair, we use Allen while he's still good enough for a year and then we bring Andrews in to Allen's minutes next year.
He's still only 18, we don't need to flood him with a full season of games.

I'd be happy flogging Allen and using his minutes to slowly bring Andrews on and get him acclimated to Championship football.

Surely Kai Andrews would learn more from Frank Lampard coaching then some lower League team. Just look how Jack Rudoni as improved under Lampard.

Most loan players go to a team with inferior coaches and players to their parent club.
It's about getting minutes on the pitch in professional football.

If Lampard likes him enough to give him 15 games worth of minutes across a season, its better for him to stay here.

And that will be the crux of it .
I doubt he'll keep him here to warm the bench and come on for a few minutes here and there at the end of games.

That young lad at Sunderland played loads of games last season in midfield, worked out alright for them!

Listen to her? With her mouth I have no choice 😆

Had a right day. She was moaning about the state of the pool. Leaves and insects all over the bottom. Insects floating on the top. We've just had a few days of rain after ages of not having a drop. Got used to not putting pump cover on. Looks like pump is knackered.

Offered an escape route. Youngest daughters boyfriend wanted to do a surprise visit. His mother has been seriously ill in hospital. On the way back I nearly ran over a motorcyclist. There's a valley to a big river with 180° hairpin bends. Was taking one to the left when he suddenly appeared. Both bike and rider went into trees. Whilst giving first aid my memory let me down. Wanted to ask him if he could move his toes.....all I could remember they are foot fingers but my mind went blank. But the bonus was 3 very fit cyclists stopped to help 😃

Now back at home getting another nagging off my wife 😆

Wait what, you ran someone over?!

Only just missed him. He tried to take a hairpin bend too fast. As I was turning to.the left it meant both bike and rider then went onto my side of the road. Without ABS I wouldn't have had a chance of slowing down in time. By the time I had stopped I watched him hit the trees. Certainly the closest I have ever come to having an accident in over 40 years of having a driving licence although I've had a few close calls over the years.

Good solid debut..expected nothing less. Against decent opposition playing slightly out of position.

Kids 19. What a talent. Has it all in my opinion. Good physicality, pace , strength, very comfortable on the ball and good passing ability.

Lad has a very big future. He can learn it all here not going out on loan. Under Lampard.

I think the plan was to loan him.
And I think there may have been a suggestion that that may change and he stays.
But having seen him last night, I think he needs a loan.

he was ok last night , but that was all
i know he is young but physically strong, but needs to get his head up a lot more and appreciate what is around him, as it caused him to give away possession too often in simple situations

Would agree. There's a very good player there but he needs to work on decision making. Our fans would turn on him and write him off after a couple of poor performances.

He won’t get a game which is why we may as well loan him to get game time

This is probably the best next step for him. With Eccles to come back, he’s going to be 5th choice and game time will be difficult to come by.

He’s showed promise and he certainly should hold his head high. Had some solid touches but others were slightly naive… would you back him to play LW if EMC gets injured for a prolonged period? Probably not.

It’s the same with Rapha, promising performance that deserved MOTM. The question remains, would you back that player to perform at a high level for weeks/months if required? I’m sceptical whether he can make that step up this season.

Thought he was excellent and showed he could probably cut a season at L1 level this year and possibly has a route to the first team. And he’s the first youth player I’ve thought that about for ages.
