? Is this a pl rule? What if the team they are playing for is out? I don't recall this ever happening and to be honest doesn't sound right.

We loan out players to weaker leagues, whether in this country or abroad. It's totally normal. At some point we'll need to bring him in and get him in the squad to see if he can make it.

You could be right. But whilst we're negotiating the loan we're in a position to mention to them that we could offer him to celtic. With a loan of a young player, the prospective loanee club doesn't have a strong bargaining position

Interesting. Though what we can control is whether we recall him. Might the fact that we can't stop him playing against us if we were to draw them later in the competition influence our decision on this? Barca sure looked stupid with the countinho situation

Get the lad back at the first opportunity

Id prefer we didn't sell Mitoma and bought in Sima. Injuries are a thing, as we've found out this season. And we almost certainly won't have Fati. Every season squad strength is what gets us.

I'll wager heavily we don't get welbeck back on the pitch in a couple of weeks.
