Hindsight is wonderful but i think that because he was a late bloomer and only started to show his form in the last dozen games, by then the club had already been in talks to buy Pedro so Undav would have been down the pecking order. However they knew right at the end of the season Enciso injury...
Does anyone know officially if we can recall him? With uncertainty when Enciso, March and Fati are returning, i think he could walk straight into the first team.
U obviously don't get humour.. seriously though wonder how much time Lallana will play. even if fit I definitely wouldn't put him ahead of Enciso and Mitoma,
I don't have the stats to prove it but I bet in his end of season run, his shots to goals ratio was one of the top in the league, hence v surprised..as others have said might have let Bouanette out on loan or dare I say it, release Lallana! (Don't, just don't)
