I agree that's the case and what will happen yes. More that I just think it's a shame that he won't get much time and that there's no rush to loan him straight out when he could go at the end of August or start of September. He seemed to hit the ground running at MK joining part way through so I wouldn't be concerned that he needs to join a side before the season starts to settle in as it were
Can't see him getting any game time even in the cups tbh as we have too many CMs in front of him - would do him good moving to a step higher then he did the year before.
