It did Minteh no harm going to a big Eredivisie club featuring in the Champions league even if he wasn't ready for Premier League football at that point. If he plays consistently it's a brilliant loan, miles better than the Championship :lol:

 

If he does, great. but I'd be shocked if he makes more than 5 starts in the league.

Odd, given we're not stacked with right wingers. Must have someone lined up.


He’s primarily a LW.

Wikipedia lied to me then. Makes much more sense, we've got enough cover on the left, the wouldn't even make the bench ahead of a third goalkeeper.

I have no idea how good the kid is currently. I mean, coming from the second tier in Spain there is a decent chance he needs some development time, and I'd rather he does that playing in a good footballing side playing CL than for a Championship side playing the likes of Sunderland every week.

Suppose if you send a kid anywhere on loan and doesn't play, it's Ajax and their standard of bringing through youth.

Saw him in the flesh on Saturday ebening. Came on for the second half in Malaga's 2-2 draw at home to Burgos. 

 

I'd say he's a long way off PL standard but he's got a good touch and takes a very decent set piece. Not as fast as he looks on YouTube albeit not slow and there wasn't too much cause for him to get up to full speed as the game was predominately played in front of the defence. Played a bit on the right before switching to the left where he looked more at home, he proper hugged the touchline on both and seemed fairly comfortable off both feet despite being right footed.

 

Don't think the Malaga fans are particularly pleased he's fucking off on a free. Came on to near silence opposed to the other subs.

 

Makes it or not, it’s probably the lowest risk transfer we’ve made in years so good luck to the lad.

Sounds like a JDP nonce. Do not want.
