So long as the price on that option is sufficient high to either, A. price them out or B. get sufficient payment, I'm comfortable with the Aleksic loan, i'd like to see where he is in 12-18 months before getting shot tbh.
Or unless he really wants to go there, like Isak … … we have to remember there’s always two sides to the story.
Definitely a player there. I know there was some rumours that he wasn’t keen to learn English a while back, maybe rubbish but perhaps he is not integrating to well perhaps? Think he can be an asset but given how we are doing business I guess we trust the club on this one.
His club have confirmed theres an option to buy strange one for me certainly seems to have potential, cost a decent fee and just turned 20, suppose the club know better than me though!
Good move for the lad, he needs games but the club is moving faster than some of the players progress
Not strange at all for me. Not sure Le Bris rated him. Hardly got a kick, even at times late on in the season when we were really struggling to create.
He was a big signing fee wise, Rusyn was the same a year prior. The former a real flop btw and it aint looking good for the latter if theyve put an option in there. The hit rate on non British has been crazy
Good luck to him, limited chances and often out of position but he never hid when he did play, we can’t win them all hope he smashes it
Realistically RLB only had so much time to put teams together and get the results, it wasn't the time to f*ck around. If all the players suggested by supporters, were dropped/chosen/subbed or 'given minutes' we'd have gone through the entire squad ten times over. Aleksic may return, or not, and could be the best player we've ever allowed to leave or the best who returned. In my opinion we don't know enough about him from the time he's had or the positions he's played to make a real judgement. When you look at the group of players who've been written off you'd find Aleksic, Mundle, Hume, Mayenda, Isidor, Watson and many more. To me that shows how little we know, as supporters, when all we have to go on is what we see on the pitch ... ... all the training, group coaching, assessments, mental/physical studies, individual coaching, etc etc etc is a mystery to us. If the club feel this is, currently, the best option for Aleksic I have no option but to agree. I wanted him to play more, during the playoff period, and perhaps RLB felt the same but sometimes you have to put someone in just to get that result. It doesn't always have to be the most skilful or even previously effective ... ... Patrick Roberts was the right man at the right time but I doubt many at Wembley would've been baying for him to take the pitch.
