NUFC transfer rumours in the press


Recommended Posts

Ukranian clubs have been terminating their foreign players contracts so they can leave the country.  Maybe we could pick a few of them up on frees.

 

AShley would fucking love that.

Probably a load of crap but if there is any truth in it could this mean they're already planning for Debuchy being on his way at the end of the season ?

A different piece of Arsenal transfer news today as the Evening Standard are reporting that Newcastle United are interested in loaning Carl Jenkinson for the entirety of next season. This is great news for Jenkinson in my opinion as his development has definitely stalled with Sagna having a strong season and at his age, game time is vital for his development.

 

Jenkinson joined from Charlton for around £1 million in 2011 and he really staked his claim to a place in the Arsenal team when he was forced into the right back spot because of injury to Sagna at the beginning of the 2012/2013 season. He had some great games against the likes of Liverpool, Manchester City and so on. He even went on to have a very good game against Bayern Munich at the Allianz where we won 2-0.

 

This season however, Jenkinson has definitely struggled to make his mark when he has started. He often seems clumsy now and lacks any real technique to his game. It has definitely been a step down from his performances last season. However, is this drop in performance because of his overall lack of ability or because he’s young? I personally think it’s a bit of both.

 

A loan to Newcastle would be massive for his career. Being in a Premier league team where you will most definitely get more game time than you do at Arsenal will be very important to his development. Hopefully he’ll impress Pardew in this hypothetical loan and will become a starter at Newcastle. That in itself would be a great feat for him at such a young age and would aid his development.

 

There is no doubt the young Englishman has stalled but he still has potential and hopefully he’ll have the option of going on loan to another Premier league club this summer so he can continue his development. Even if Sagna does leave, it is likely that Wenger will enter the transfer market for a more experienced and reliable player, so Jenkinson may have to accept that a move is the best thing for his long term future at Arsenal

If they know Debuchy is going to leave then why are they not looking to sign a right back rather than plan for a loan.  There is plenty of time and we should be looking ar right backs anyway as we need cover in that position.  If Jenkinson was to come on loan then it would surely be as first choice as I can't see Wenger agreeing to loan us a player without guarantees about him playing a significant amount of games.

I wouldn't get too disheartened, the whole Jenkinson part of the article was -

 

Jenkinson is believed to be a target for Newcastle, who would be keen to take the 22-year-old to St James’ Park on a season-long loan deal.

 

Seems like the standard guff you get in press speculation just to add a few words to the article. Wouldn't burn your Debuchy shirt just yet.

Amazing logic in that article like.  Jenkinson doesn't get much time in Arsenal's side because Sanga keeps him out.  But obviously he'll get loads more time in Newcastles side, despite Debuchy being ahead of Sanga in the French national team ???

I think we will use the loan system to its full capacity next season

 

Exactly. It's been a success for us this season with Remy. They will go down this road much more now.

I don't mind loaning senior players but there's something about loaning youngsters from 'bigger' clubs basically just to warm them up for them, that I hate.

Yup, same. It should be used as a last resort and there's no way you should 'plan' to use it.

You end up having to replace them, either with another loan or buying anyways. It's good if it's someone like Remy but you ideally want a good shot at signing them at the end of it if they've performed well.

 

Sunderland have loaned a fair few players the last few years and it's caused a lack of continuity for them.

Pretty obvious he won't be here next season. Hope Carr can pull another inexpensive rabbit out of the hat.
