Maybe he meant his career?Didn’t Gil say he’s going nowhere?
Can't we just loan him to our U-23's team??If Gil is going on loan it should be to a PL team. He needs to get used to the physicality of our league, or he isn't going to make it. He will not learn anything about the PL playing in the inferior Spanish league.
This kid cost us £25m plus Lamela. That's not silly money. He came from that league and isn't ready - so why will going back to it help?
Then, when he comes good, at least he'll be in the building!
Besides, not flying him to Spain to play football will save on air travel too... What with us wanting to be a Carbon Neutral®™ Club!!!
