Such a good talent, not even a Championship side wanted him, great scouting.

So much for being the next big thing. He's probably regretting not joining RM at this point.

Going to the lower leagues on loan as a keeper isn't as bad as an outfield player, he will develop while also been in the UK and been at Barnsley will have plenty of goalkeeping to do. I would much rather a keeper go on load somewhere they will actually learn and improve, rather than go to a team that dominated and spends 90% of the match doing fuck all.

It's not so much the destination; it's the lack of progression. He's gone from the Belgian top flight to the third tier of English football. 

If this move shows anything, it's that he won't be playing for the first team anytime soon, if at all.

some of the talents we buy will come to nothing and will be sold off or loaned out until their contracts expire

one or two will end up working out and will make up for all those that went wrong

not some, most will come to nothing 
 

The good ones would make up for all the failed ones only if we acquired them at decent prices as clubs like Dortmund or RB do. But we pay outrageous fees and still have a lower hit ratio then them. This whole strategy will definitely backfire economically 

[Pizy 18,368]

I think Paez & Estevão are such outrageous talents that they will be definite successes for us. To already be playing against grown men and looking great is what gives me that confidence. They have genuine “generational” talent. I think Anselmino’s physical characteristics should translate well to PL/European footy as well.

All the other “wonder kids” we’ve hoarded recently I think could go any way. No real expectations that any of them will blow up into superstars.

Don’t play with my emotions like this! It has to be a lowball loan.

I would prefer mudryk, tbh

We all know these Italian clubs play us like a fiddle. However, if they are will to cover all his wages (0.0000001% chance), we should bite their hands off.

With his age and relatively low wages Mudryk will probably be much easier to move than Sterling. If someone is genuine interested in Raheem we need to bite their hand off at the first opportunity. 

Like Lukaku, his monster wages off our books is all that matters. Don’t care about the fee.

[Thor 2,392]

The Sterling story will be a loan for sure. With 20% wages covered. 

[whats happening 1,525]

they still have chiesa

I am really not so sure on them. They look like really talented kids but nothing I have seen from them screams generational. Also, aren’t they both injured for multiple months already? Can easily see their small bodies not being ready early enough for those brutal PL defenders so they will probably spend most of the time in the treatment rooms. Regardless, this club is far from a perfect environment with all the chaos, upheaval and incompetence around. Only youngsters who are already very mature mentally like Cole, Gutso stand a chance of making it here
