Menace Posted February 27, 2024 Share Posted February 27, 2024 Why not just let him play with the under 21s if you cant be arsed with him? Sad for the lad - essentially lost a year of his career with this loan move Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nucasol Posted February 28, 2024 Share Posted February 28, 2024 I’m really hoping we have some sort of get out clause here and that’s what’s stopping him playing. Otherwise, it has to be the most nonsensical piece of business we’ve done in years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zero Posted February 28, 2024 Share Posted February 28, 2024 please have a get out clause. 30m for a bench warmer is a nightmare, and we have lots of positions need to be strengthened Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lotus Posted February 28, 2024 Share Posted February 28, 2024 I know I was guilty earlier on in the thread but we have so little information that all speculation has proved pointless. I don’t even acknowledge his existence anymore, tbh. He’s a non factor that as of yet, hasn’t cost anything as far as I know. I’ve no idea what circumstances could change that and I’m bored of guessing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conjo Posted February 28, 2024 Share Posted February 28, 2024 Watched him training with the subs at half time yesterday. He didn't shoot at goal like someone else mentioned he did (and buried them all) in the Arsenal match thread(?), but he looks so comfortable with the ball. Really good technique. Looked very happy too. Such a weird loan. Wonder if we'll ever get the full story on this one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shearergol Posted February 28, 2024 Share Posted February 28, 2024 Maybe £500k comes off the fee every time we don't play him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted February 28, 2024 Share Posted February 28, 2024 The most logical explanation is that we don't want to activate his clause, but even that doesn't make a lot of sense since it sounded like it was guaranteed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NWMag Posted February 28, 2024 Share Posted February 28, 2024 The most logical solution for me is that we signed him not for the immediate future and the first year being a loan helps with that. he gets 12 months in and around the squad, purely focusing on developing into a full time LB. Then, next season when the actual transfer kicks in, he is ready for regular game time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted February 28, 2024 Share Posted February 28, 2024 I think Hall will become a class player, my only doubt is whether we will always want a LB who is more like a CB. If so then obviously he won't be it. I guess he might equally end up as a midfielder. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sibierski Posted February 28, 2024 Share Posted February 28, 2024 The main part I just don’t understand now, is why he can’t be used in PL2 matches. Get him playing games, dealing with defensive situations if that’s the concern. At the moment, it’s just training, which will help technical and fitness, but not that in game experience. Last season when not playing for first team at Chelsea it was PL2, mostly CM. Is it in deal he can’t play PL2? Or does that also count towards any trigger? £30m next season for someone who’s essentially had 750 mins of prem football over 2 seasons. You are paying big amounts for a huge talent if that’s the view, but then if such a huge talent, they can surely play good minutes now? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimbo Posted February 28, 2024 Share Posted February 28, 2024 The cynic in me thinks Howe didn’t want him, he probably wanted someone else, so is making a point. It happens a lot in football. From the little I’ve seen I don’t believe lack of ability is the issue. Things will be clearer in the summer when we see if there’s an obligation to buy.
