But Baba mighta been an excuse. Keep thinking of that goal against West Brom. Now for a LB to score inside a minute I think you might be right mate. But we do actually need a proper LB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems he 'apparently' told Wolfsburg he wanted out this summer. Last 'links' I can see to anyone is that North London club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special Juan 28,141 Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 He wasn't present at the open day either so looks like he maybe off on loan too. We are going to have seriously get some spending done now if this is the case. xPetrCechx 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King11Didier 916 Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 Hope that he will be loaned somewhere he gets plenty of playing minutes. He made a good 1st season and I was impressed with his attitude on the pitch and I believe he can become a good player for us. I'm even surprised with that he won't be in our team this season. A player like him, who can play everywhere on the left side and do it properly, can always be helpful in your team.

Unionjack 7,531 Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 Well he wasn't at training apparently (along with Miazga) so looking like hes going elsewhere. Real shame cause I had big hopes for the lad. Fulham Broadway 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Belgiannutt 3,201 Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 Conte clearly doesn't rate him that highly as he barely featured in preseason. Better he gets some playing time on loan then being here and not playing at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mccg 1,528 Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 Well all I can say on this loan is simply FFS! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CurlyHairLikeLuiz 1,625 Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 I reckon he's being sent on loan as an LB to sharpen his defensive skills. Wwe've done the same with Ake now it's clear he has more value in central midfield than at left back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomo 21,751 Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 If as said above he's going out as a left back I'm all for it, as I think he has huge potential in that position. If not I'd rather we sell him, bang average winger and if we are going down that route long term it will be the same song as with Oscar, IE some people accepting he isn't good and other clinging on to "he's young give him time" till he gets to old for it.

Pizy 18,942 Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 I have the feeling he'll go out on loan and we'll never hear from him again until he's sold to a random German or Spanish side in a couple of years. If he's not in Conte's plans now and can't break into the side as a fullback with the players we have now, I can't imagine he'd be able to once we have new signings there.

Blue_Fox_ 2,086 Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 This is what happens when we change managers like a pair of underwear. I can't understand this club at times, Aké on loan, Kenedy on loan, Baba on loan; who the hell is going to be backup to our, hopefully, new LB? A fucking joke.

Wwe've done the same with Ake now it's clear he has more value in central midfield than at left back. That, in my opinion, was always clear. I used to say that DM was the best of the three positions Nathan offered. These days that's no longer true because CB seems to have dropped off Nat's slate all together. He's done far better at left back than I thought he would but I still say DM is the place for him. Absolutely thrilled that Eddie Howe seems to agree about that.

Maybe I'm just imagining that, but if there was, that would explain the absences and maybe give the lie to the idea that his non-appearance at the open training session means he's about to join the loan army. If Kennedy is set for a loan move then I think that's a positive thing for him, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
