EskWeston 696 Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Looks like Mancinne may be on the verge of joining Wolves on a season long loan. Given that Carvalho is staying and we have Alex and Ivanovic also behind JT then i think a loan for the season in the premiership will do him the world of good. http://www.expressandstar.com/2009/08/11/wolves-close-in-on-mancienne/As i have said in the discussions on Di Santo and Sinclair loans, a season in the premiership is a massive move for these lads and a big step in them getting chances in our first team. I would have liked to have seen Mancienne get his chance with our first team this season, but if those chances are not going to come then a loan in the premiership is a very good move.

BlueLion. 21,491 Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Completely agree. It's all fine and dandy going away to a foreign league and impressing, but we want to know what he can do at the top level in England, not Italy or Holland.

the wes 7,212 Posted August 12, 2009 Author Share Posted August 12, 2009 Wolves this afternoon confirmed they are set to seal the season-long loan capture of defender Michael Mancienne – as the defender waited to pen a four-year deal with Chelsea. Mancienne was due in Wolverhampton earlier today after playing 90 minutes in England under-21s’ 0-0 draw in Holland last night. But with a deal with Wolves poised to go through and Mancienne having just 12 months left on his current deal, it is believed Chelsea arranged for the 21-year-old to sign a new contract today. The versatile centre-back, who can also play in either full-back position, has agreed to move to Molineux to get the match action he needs to push for inclusion in England’s squad in World Cup year. Chief executive Jez Moxey confirmed the deal was closer but refuted suggestions that Mancienne could become a permanent £4m signing. “It’s on-going, but there’s no permanent deal,” said Moxey. “If we can get a deal with Chelsea, then we’re hopeful something will happen.” Mancienne, who had a successful 10-match spell on loan with Wolves last season, has already looked at properties in the Wolverhampton area after learning he would be starting the season as Chelsea’s fifth choice central defender behind John Terry, Ricardho Carvalho, Branislav Ivanovic and Alex. Chelsea boss Carlos Ancelotti finally agreed to allow Mancienne back out on loan after Carvalho turned down the chance to join Inter Milan recently. The 12-month loan allows Mancienne to return to Stamford Bridge to challenge for a place after next summer’s World Cup, when Carvalho could leave. Mancienne impressed so much in his first stint at Wolves last winter that he was included in Fabio Capello’s England squad for a friendly against Germany. Although he failed to figure in England’s friendly in Berlin last November, his success at Wolves saw him finally make his debut for Chelsea and he went on to play six games for the Stamford Bridge club last season, including making his Champions League debut. And the west Londonder knows he will have the platform to impress on the Premier League stage under boss Mick McCarthy this season, rather than languish in Chelsea’s reserves after failing to make their 25-man squad for Sunday’s Community Shield penalties win over Manchester United.

chrismada9 1,948 Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 If we are planning to loan him, I'd say send him to a club like West Ham or Portsmouth, or Everton... Not Wolves!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EskWeston 696 Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 If we are planning to loan him, I'd say send him to a club like West Ham or Portsmouth, or Everton... Not Wolves!!Why?How is he going to get regular games at West Ham, Pompey or Everton when they have international players in his position already! Wolves is perfect for him, he WILL get the regular games and will get all the experience he needs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Term-X 7,891 Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 ^ he 'did well' at wolves last time lmaothis is ridiculous really, throw ivanovic out and play mancienne. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZanSnake 1,211 Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 ^^ Yeah, but that was in the championship, not in the premiership.In the EPL he will be facing teams like Arsenal and Man Utd, or have you forgotten that?If he plays well against them for Wolves, and Carlo sees who needs to go either in January or the end of the season, i hope he can take their place.

EskWeston 696 Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Mancienne isn't going to get hardly any games for us this season, especially now that Carvalho is staying another year. If he goes to Wolves he gets a full season playing Premier League football, which is a big deal and would make it easier for Carlo to trust him playing for us.In an ideal world we would be able to play him in our first team, but a loan to Wolves at this stage in his career can only be good for him and will certainly not set him back. The club are making it very clear they see him as part of our future as they are getting him to sign a new deal before he goes off on loan.

diskoviolente 425 Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 At first i was a bit unsure about the M.M. deals, but if he signs a new four year deal before going to club on loan and playing regular first team football in the Premier League - why not ?It is true, with Carvalho, Alex and Ivano we have the exact picking order.Mancienne will come back stronger i think and then will replace one of them defenders i mentionend.

EskWeston 696 Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Sky Sports confirming deal done. Nothing from either club yet though......Chelsea defender Michael Mancienne has joined Wolves on a season-long loan deal. The England U21 international was at Molineux on Thursday to thrash out personal terms and an agreement has now been reached.The 21-year-old centre-half will be taking in a second spell in the West Midlands, having spent just over two months on loan at Wolves last season.He becomes Mick McCarthy's seventh signing of a busy summer as he gears up for life back in the Premier League.Wolves may not be done yet, though, as chief executive Jez Moxey has confirmed that the club continue to track potential targets."It's been a long, hard summer in terms of preparing for the Premier League and bringing in new players, and we're still looking for more even now," he said in the Express and StarSource: Sky Sports Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kez 2,727 Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Good move for him, but we can't keep sending him out on loan for much longer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EskWeston 696 Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Good move for him, but we can't keep sending him out on loan for much longerNatural progression, he has succeeded in the Championship and now he is going to have a full season in the Premier League. This will give him excellant grounding to come back next summer and earn himself a place. He needs to work very hard though, it isn't easy as a centre back playing in a team fighting relegation.
