    This definitely has a Gallagher/Cirkin feel to it! I’m all for it too, Garcia is a far more exciting loan for me

    Then yeah could make sense but I still don’t think we’d loan two

    Wouldn’t be the first player to be **** on at manure. A lot of players leave there and go on to be top players at other clubs, I think it is just the toxic atmosphere around the place

    When Jobe first got here it was exactly like that, almost as if he didn’t know his own body. Once his brain caught up you could visibly see the improvement especially last year.

    I understand your point of view but the trouble is we don’t know how any players will react to the step up in class, I remember when we got promoted to the championship and how many posters wanted rid of LON because he was league 1 at best.
    Or how Mayenda was not good enough as he couldn’t even get a game in Scotland.
    These are just 2 recent examples from our squad.
    Isidor scored his goals in his first season in a new country and has now settled in. Can he step up and score 15 or 20 in the prem?
    Mayenda got his goals in important games and now has confidence on his side can he step up to the prem? Again nobody knows but we give them the chance.
    The finishing position last season means nothing mate because as you know we sacrificed the last 5 games to prepare the squad and that preparation paid off.
    Yes we have needed to add some quality but we already had quality in the squad they were just young and need time to develop. Time I believe that we are giving them. It’s easy to say we were not good enough but we got promoted with the youngest squad ever to do it so making the achievement sound lucky is a bit much, I prefer to say we fought harder in the latter stages and when watching back were far better than most neutrals or the presenters on the day gave us credit for.
    All in all I agree that some players may not make the grade and some may need a bit more time but others may surprise us all and really kick on. I think I will just trust th management team to sort through it all, as the rest is after all only our opinions and often those opinions are clouded by outside influence other opinions or just how we feel on that day.

    The other possibility of course is that Chelsea have put the brakes on the deal because Leipzig want Tyrique George as part of the Simons deal and they've already allowed Broja to move and will be selling Jackson.

    I'm not saying Giui is a better player than Garcia by the way, but I don't think we've got enough evidence to know either way as a fan base. The CWC is about as pointless as using Giui's Conference league stats.

    Garcia has done nothing in La Liga yet, all of his goals are essentially at junior level. An exciting talent for sure, but I'm not sure how we can project one as a rotational loan player and the other as a superstar to keep us up.

    I'll trust the clubs judgement on it, but personally I'm as excited about Giui as I am about Garcia.
