So Nino could be happening in January, which could mean we have an entirely Brazilian back 3, 2 of whom like to do crazy attacking things as well as defend, as well as a Danilo sitting in front of them.
Things can change in the next six weeks but at the moment it feels like we might be looking to end some loans. Montiel is third choice at right back, Tavares fourth choice at left back and Santos sixth choice for three positions in midfield. Not to mention Origi has looked, frankly, useless.
Montiel was playing until he got injured? And starting to settle. I’d be surprised if we got rid.
Others perhaps will be off Santos most likely as others clubs might not want them back.
I guess Montiel depends on whether Serge fancies some Saudi cash. 31 on Christmas Eve (and in May), so should be good for at least a couple more years in proper football.
He'd only played about 20 minutes for us hasn't he? Hard to decide he's nothing to offer.
That said, I'd still be looking to send him back myself.
I thought the same but I trust Cooper and there’s probably good reason for that.
He's injured isn't he? That's the main reason we've not seen more of him.
You'll get the Home Secretary job yet, Mince
Everyone back in training apart from CHO.
Felipe we shall see what happens with him.
Chicago: Getting inside scoops.
CHO was in training this week, but isn't expected to be fit for tomorrow.
According to Cooper, so expect him to start and play 90 minutes.
Apparently Fenerbahce want McKenna.
Transfermarkt reckons we paid 3.27 million euros and hes value at 10 million. I would have thought 5 based on no science whatsoever. but we should make a profit. Which is nice.
Minus the 90 grand a week he was earning
His contract is up in seven months and he’s nowhere near the team. Any fee would be great business. He’s more than paid back whatever he’s cost us.. I hope he gets a good move. He’s only 27 so he’s well able to be playing top end championship or Old Firm Fitba, if that’s what he wants, for plenty of years.
As his contract is up in the summer, overseas clubs (i.e. Fenerbache) can sign him on a free transfer from January can't they. Whereas British clubs have to wait until the summer to do that. Though British clubs can of course buy him in January if they wanted.
I expect he'll wait until the summer then go on a free transfer to Celtic, Rangers or one of the upper Championship clubs, picking up a large salary due to the zero transfer fee.
