Miroslav Stoch on loan at FC Twente

[EskWeston 696]

Did anyone read Arnesen views on Stoch?

He mentioned that there were English Clubs offering to loan him but seeing his game is more technical than physical he was loaned to a club in Dutch league which is less physical and more technical.

That concerns me a bit. It is like he is doing well in a league that suits hsi game and Arnsen has seen this. Also, is it an indication that Arnesen doesnt see him making a cut in a more physical league like the Premier League?

It doesn't mean that at all. First priority was to get Stoch regular first team competitive games. Stoch is playing at a high level. He will cope physically with the Premier League, and he will be given that test when the time comes, probably next season.

Not sure than Mancienne would be what we need at our level in that role. Especially with more natural options in Mikel, Matic and Cork.

McCarthy praised him after the City-game, playing as a defensive midfielder (naming him the MOTM). But honestly I think we have better young options in the same position (Cork, Matic & Mikel). So for us, it's a no. Also I think we will make his move permanent in short time.

As for Stoch; In my opinion he should not be called back in this window. It sounds like he is doing really good for FC Twente, and he should be allowed to continue his development there. Playing week in, week out on a lower level is definitely better than getting 15 minutes every 3rd-4th game.. Twente are also competing in the Europa League, aren't they? Getting excperience out in Europe against second class teams ( like Liverpool is also a plus. He won't be getting that at Chelsea this season.

Stay.

Gald to here he is doing well. I haven't seen anything of him over in Holland this year so really pleased to hear about him. From the few games he played last season he was very impressive. Noteably Stoke at home and Watford in the cup. I'm looking forward to seeing him next year. Hopefully Carlo will give him a chance.
