Jayson Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 Surprised we didn't keep him and give him a chance this season. Would rather him over Murphy.. looks more in form as a goal scorer than any of the forwards we kept here, baffling tbh. Its not baffling, he'd not have had the minutes to prove himself here. Barnsley scored 4 after he went off in the last game, he'd not have had a full game the following match to get a goal if he did likewise here.

jimmymag Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 He'd have been competing for a spot against Gayle and Perez, he wouldn't have got much game time. I think loaning him out was the best thing for him, the regular football will stand to him later. Can't see why he couldn't have been pressing for a game here instead of Gayle or, especially, Pérez. You can't teach the finishing instinct and composure he has. Really hoping he comes back in January and Rafa shows some confidence in the lad.

Leazes_End_Mag Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 Hes scored 2 goals. Lets see how he compares against the strikers we have here at the minute when his loan is due to end come january before we start spitting our dummys out.

You can't teach the finishing instinct and composure he has. Really hoping he comes back in January and Rafa shows some confidence in the lad. Perez, Mitrovic, Gayle and Murphy all have more experience at this level, if he had stayed here he would have had nowhere near the opportunity. No one was criticising the loan at the time because he's never played in this division before, and if he had stayed he would probably still be getting 15 minutes here 20 minutes there. The best thing for him is to go to Barnsley and score goals, so when he comes back he'll have a legitimate claim to be starting. If he comes back in Jan with 8-10 goals to his name he should be starting alongside Mitrovic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nordstrom Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 Do the same rules apply as in the Premier League in that loanees can't play against their parent club? As far as I know, there's real no 'cant'. Really depends on the parent club to put a clause into the loan contract, which happens 100% of the time anyway.

No, the PL rules now forbid loanees playing against their parent club. Not sure about the football league though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesse Pinkman Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 Another goal today. Imagine him with a full season under Rafa. I do think it was the right decision to loan him out though. Especially considering how little game time Mitro has had. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially considering how little game time Mitro has had. Yes on hindsight, it was absolutely the right idea to loan him out. Clear to me that Rafa in terms of otation, see Gayle and Mitro as playing the same postion, Gayle is on fire so Mitro is not getting any game time. Behind one of thsoe two is his "number 10", and that's Diame and Perez. We've got Murphy too, so we aren't short, I suspect Arma is more of Gayle/Mitro position player in Rafa's system.
