Matt Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 I can't get my head around loaning a player with 6 months left on his contract rather than just effectively buying the remainder of his contract. We've already played Man Utd twice, so it's not as though he can face them. This just uses up one of our potential PL loan slots which might come in handy on deadline day.

Leaves the door open for both parties at the end of the season to reevaluate I guess. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
midds Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Can't really blame him for not wanting to commit too much, from his point of view he's coming into a pretty sketchy situation as far as he's concerned. He wants to keep his options open and I don't blame him a bit, the move has to be right for all 3 parties. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but you can do that just by effectively keeping the same contract he's already on. Free to do as he wishes at the end of the season. And I'm pretty sure PL loans can't be recalled any more.

toontownman Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 If he comes and we stay up he will likely be a big part of that. Think he will be totally up for staying at that point. If not, who cares. We will buy someone better. If we go down. Fair enough. World Cup year and he needs to be playing top flight to get into the England squad.

I think Man U would much rather sell him and we would rather but him but he will only come to us on loan (Can't really blame him). Man U probably feel getting a loan fee and his wages paid is better than nothing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Has to be said like if it was a choice between Lingard and Alli, the latter has a much higher potential ceiling, he was genuinely class. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed but hes also perhaps the more risky signing of the two. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
