black_n_white Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 If injuries don’t improve I don’t see the harm in bringing him back in January? We could do with some reinforcement in attacking areas from the bench. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoot Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 1 hour ago, Ikon said: Let him stay where he is Exactly. Barnes is back soon and Howe said Murphy would be out for 8/9 weeks so that's sort of mid January which is the only time we could recall Minteh. Hopefully no more injuries and we'll be fine once we get players back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would probably need to repair relations with Feyenoord too, in terms of being a reliable sporting partner. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unbelievable Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 https://twitter.com/Feyenoord/status/1728065686583619949?s=20 Feyenoord manager Arne Slot confirming that Minteh is back to fitness and will feature tomorrow. Asked if he's happy to see Yankuba back he confirms he's very happy about it, because the lad offers something very different than his other options, in that he has pace and endeavour in abundance. Sounds like he is definitely seen as a first team player by Slot, even though he admits that Minteh needs some polishing, e.g. in making the correct decisions at times.

If he keeps up with this progress - I can see him staying there another year - Feyenoord and Slot are as good a package as you are ever going to get when loaning a player to develop Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 I can't see a scenario where we bring him back in January and agree with the above that we are more likely to send him there for another 12 months in the summer. I'd bet a fair amount of money we never see him play a competitive game for NUFC. We may get some decent coin for him though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Menace Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 Considering our lack of RW options. Why wouldn't he feature or make an appearance for us? Almiron / Murphy are approaching 30.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cup and sub appearances to bring him through next season and we’ll see whether he cuts the mustard, particularly if we’re in the CL, UCL or EL.

Bringing back will stifle his development. But hey, opinions. I think the only way we bring him back is if we get into the Europa League. Happy with him staying at Feyenoord for the remainder but if Miggy got injured it would be the right thing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vaj Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 It’s a difficult one. Presumably Murphy will be back in January so you can end up recalling him, getting no injuries to Almiron and Murphy second half the season and the lad barely plays. I would keep him at Feyenoord, he is playing regularly for an exciting team, scoring goals and getting assists and getting European experience. Have a look at him in pre season.

Erikse Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 (edited) Kind of crazy how much we actually ended up needing him this season. If we knew what we know now, maybe we wouldn't send him on loan. Who would've thought. If we had a spot available for him in the PL squad that is, I guess maybe not?

STM Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 He plays in the Dutch league, unless he's absolutely tearing it up, it counts for very little. He's got potential, thats it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
