Loan Thread 2023/24

[giantwolf]

A thread dedicated to “international round up” of our players would be good..

Now, who would be good at starting and updating such a thread……….

You're in mgmt aren't you?

He must be mgmt…. He’s looking for others to do the work

Just kidding

 

[WickedWolfie]

You're in mgmt aren't you?

The phrase missing is "It would be a good development opportunity".....

 

[AndyWolves]

He must be mgmt…. He’s looking for others to do the work

Just kidding

Finding someone whose good at something and then rewarding them with more work!!

 

[Aimless Balls]

23 games isn't enough. Next to test him in a better league than mls.

MLS and the Championship aren’t far apart, are they? Surely a right-footed, athletic 22 y/o Colombian international CB/RB playing in a top Championship side/defence would pique your interest, especially if we can get him before the window opens. We’re currently stocked for a 4-3-3, not a 3-4-3, have 4 CBs for 3 spots. Not in a position to be picky. Forget about Jonny and Doc.

Theo Corbeanu talking about his move to Grasshoppers, his route into football and his move to Wolves Academy

 

[topcat99]

Just to pre empt @giantwolf a bit.

I was at Edgeley Park today and Alfie Pond was an unused substitute.

Caveat though. On the hour Stockport were about to make a double substitution.

One midfielder, and Alfie.

However an injured player made the manager change his mind at the last minute.

Alfie would have had 30+ minutes otherwise.

(At the end of the game, I managed to inform him of the news from Bournemouth)

What is your connection with Stockport

 

[topcat99]

@SuperGran . Lived there for 12 years until 10 years ago.

Lots of friends obviously. Get to about 10 County home games a season. About 5 Wolves

Edit: Wife goes to about 5 county games a year, 5 Wolves and 5 Newcastle.
So interesting chemistry

Wow. Just noticed the comment re. the abandonment of the Greek derby. That is certainly a very serious rivalry.

 

[Aimless Balls]

Unused, unused, unused. I guess Guedes sucks in Portugal too.

 

[lobodelsur]

Unused, unused, unused. I guess Guedes sucks in Portugal too.

Its a worry how few of our loanees are being used even at clubs playing at a much lower standard.
Think Guedes was doing ok in Portugal (well, much better than here anyway), before his injury.

If 2 goals and 1 assist in 16 games (avg. 30 mins per game) is ok then yes he was

I normally do a round up of % mins played at Christmas and the end of season.

To be fair, first loans are often lower on minutes… Pond, Tipton, Roberts & Griffiths are all on first loans and they’ll probably be at the bottom of the % mins played chart… not a surprise.

First loans, whilst minutes are clearly desirable, it’s also very much about gaining experience being within a first team squad, fighting for a place

Whilst it’s disappointing I’d be far far far more concerned about Guedes (from a resale perspective ) than I am about the ones listed above

Wednesday 25th October

Luke Cundle came on for the final 25 mins as Plymouth beat Sheff W 3-0 at home. Thats Luke's 13th appearance for Plymouth, and 10th consecutive appearance (albeit only 4 starts in those 10)

Dexter Lembikisa played 90 mins and was booked as Rotherham beat Coventry 2-0 - Dexter has made 12 appearances for Rotherham - all but one being a starting spot

More to this hoever got man of the match, i turned on and watched.

He has a weird setup in Alex neils team, it looks likes he has free reign on the right and they have players cover him to bomb on.

I mean he left gaps which leeds should have exploited imo

But he got rave reviews from the commentators for his dead piece delivery which in affect caused the goal and equally his one on defending which denied leeds chances

As a replacement and understudy to semedo i think hes there, do i think hes prem ready full time starter (no) he is like Ran season 1 leaves to many gaps. Would work well in a 5 though

That is interesting, particularly as we had to play an injured Doc to cover RB last saturday

Thanks. Didn't realise that this is the norm for 1st loans.

Not sure where to put this but kaly sene is playing again

11 games - 5 goals and 2 assist

I'm still utterly convinced he'll make it!

Interesting that he left Basel on a free transfer and ended up at a newly promoted Swiss side
