Loan Watch 2023/2024

Absolute disgrace

Silva booked for diving, but it looked like a foul to me. Commentators are missing the point.

 

[big mean bunny]

Been reversed, a dive and a foul but which was first!

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Silva did well there too.

 

[big mean bunny]

Up to 3m value even with that chalked off.

Subbed. I'm surprised he managed to stay on his feet as he walked off.

Silva was awful in the first half, but effected the game well in the second.

 

[Lycan]

He was a disgrace. Went down like he'd just been set on fire in a bad kung fu movie.

He did, and not related just to him but they have been so much better since he went off.

Even Neymar laughed at that

 

[Tony Towner]

He was an embarrassment

Reminds me of an unruly toddler

How long do we have left on his contract?

till 2026 I think (with an option for another year)

I think someone will buy him in the summer, he's not quite at the Cutrone post Valencia loan stage where everyone knew he'd never make it. I think there are a fair few clubs who will look at him and convince themselves that he's had a fair bit of experience now for a striker of that age, including at big clubs, in various European competitions, international youth football and cup finals etc.

The only danger is that Shi/Hobbs also manage to convince themselves of that and overvalue him or decide he's worth another shot in the first team next season.

Only happens if GO goes really and a new manager "wants to have a look at him"

I think we are at the point where we will sell and the fee will be heavily reduced but a high sell on clause......just in case he turns out to be 30% of the player Jeff told us he would be

 

[sycophantia]

I would think clubs who would have a punt on him are not gunna massive spenders so the fee will have to be very small surely? 5m?

Don't know, clubs do strange things sometimes. If nobody reaches our valuation for him and they say to O'Neil we're not signing another forward until we get a return for Silva he might be forced to use him.
