Defender signs on loan

[andyinswinton]

I'd rather take a player on loan than fork out money on them not to do anything.

We have burnt our fingers far too many times in recent years on players with potential.

[AFII]

He will probably get a chance in the league the next month or so. We don't have many left sided players left right now.

[Diego]

It's a conspiracy I tell yer!

Didn't the last 2 argies (oh **** - Diego's going to jump right in here isn't he??) who knew each other, who arrived together and who played together do a rather decent job of it? Seems to work better than a single isolated player doesn't it?

If you were going to work in Brazil, wouldn't you rather have a mate, or two, who you knew and did the same job even, to help you settle and get the best out of the situation, I would.

[lfc4ever]

hehehe, but - do you agree 2 (or 3 even!) is way better than a single isolated player trying to settle in half way round the world?

[Red Chilli]

He won't play.

agreed

[Shaggy]

On the contrary, at this rate I think he'll be in the first team pretty ****ing sharpish.

Maybe if we were still in the CC he would

[Shaggy]

Left backs:

Riise - not good enough even at his best and woefully out of form

Warnock - not good enough

Aurelio - better deployed in midfield

I'd say he's got a grand chance of breaking into the team at left back. He hardly has Everest to climb.

[Red Chilli]

I don't think he'll settle.

[Shaggy]

I don't think he'll settle.

Bit speculative?

[Red Chilli]

Just gut feeling, I have the same feeling about most* south americans in the premiership.

[Red Chilli]

Also Rafa used the dreaded "P word" when describing him, which means he'll fail miserably.

[Shaggy]

Potential?

[Red Chilli]

Yeah.
