I have thought this a lot this season.

We must be covering all of, or nearly all of his wages.

Only reason I can think Dortmund are happy for him to stay here.

I'd imagine he must be good enough to be backup for the right side starters but just odd we've not seen him much. Probably made letting Marshall go an easier decision, but DF did make it sound like Marshall was keen to get out of here too. DF doesn't want another neg head hanging around.

He's a really highly rated young prospect. I was so excited when we signed him.

It must be an attitude/Workrate that DF isn't convinced by. That seems to be 80% of what Farke looks at and judges his players on.

To not even get sub appearances or play for injured players. Feels like he knows he is an amazing prospect, and doesn't want to give up on him. Maybe he is just not doing enough to convince in training.

I wasn't impressed with him in the game against Portsmouth.

Post #2 from yesterday -
IMO, Stoke have been seriously under-performing,so it would be good if they could limit Leeds to 1 point (or none!!)
I’d love to see Swansea do the same to Sheffield United

Neither of those I'm sure. A bad attitude and DF would have sent him packing. From the little I've seen of Passlack he works as hard as anyone. He may be struggling with the physical nature of the Champs - he's not very big. Could be he still makes too many mistakes to trust in a league game.
 
I don't understand how we're being allowed to keep hold of Passlack. Has he even come on as a sub outside of a cup game?

This came up a few weeks back and apparently Felix himself is happy with the way things are and has no desire to go back early and Dortmund isn't worried about it either.

Don't think it's about his ability either, but like Pinto he's had to wait in the wings behind the phenomenon that is Max Aarons.
