Hardly an endorsement of the player ... 'We're looking at loans but we'll keep him if no one takes him'. I'd suggest he'd have no choice if no one signs him.
So, if hes going out on loan again, why not keep him at Stoke? just seems odd... unless, he really is playing it down and isnt aware of bids or the progession of any sort of deal being done?
Interesting that Ruud said they're loan deals. It sounds ridiculous but Ruud might be completely disassociated with it as he's not treating him as his player, so he himself might not even know. If Nixon is close to the agent he potentially might know what Ruud doesn't. Which sounds absolutely stupid and bonkers but I don't think its far fetched.
Don't understand Latte Lath going there at all. He's 26 and is more than good enough for a PL move, doubt he ever gets that now. Good business by Boro if they can get a couple of defensive players with that money
prefer cappuccino over lattes and you just know who is scoring against us if cannon does go to the smallest club in yorkshire on the 3rd of feb
I would usually agree but I think we would do that on a human level to let him go and play anyway, clear RLB didn't fancy him
Think he is probably meaning that they are loan deals initially, with the buy part of it linked to either side gaining promotion.
Yeah, we aren't the type of club to keep a player if they are wanting to move to get minutes etc.. especially with the way he signed. Not like we paid a fee for him.
