I believe Karbownik is injured.

The original report into the injury said he'd only be out until January due to a stress fracture of his leg. Polish league has been on a winter break so he's only missed two games anyway. Legia Warsaw's next game is on Monday 18th Jan.

Reports in Poland regarding the recall seem to suggest it needs to happen by today and we need to pay half a million euros in compensation to cut short the loan deal.

Which is likely to be a repayment of money they paid us for the loan, so not an actual 'cost'.

Like a few others, needs a run of games.

I don't know if they would have paid us any money for the loan, bearing in mind we signed him from Legia Warsaw and loaned him straight back. It's likely a set of clauses relating to the full transfer value. Original reports said we'd paid €5.5 million for him, but that could have been dependent on him remaining on loan for the whole season, so it could be that we've now got to pay €6 million in total if we are cutting the loan deal short.

I don’t think he needs it and based on what else I’ve read Karbownik is coming to our squad.

He was after all one of the top 40 Golden Boys recently so I think he’s on a par with Lamptey (no pressure lad)!

That was my impression as well, which is why I was surprised about the Anderlecht rumour.

I think we would miss Barnado if we let him go now. I would have kept Schelotto ( sp) as well.

Short term deal for Danny Rose?

Danny Rose circa 2017? Yes please.

Danny Rose now? Meh!

No thanks - wouldn't pass the no dickheads test.

Wasn’t our choice.

He refused the deal offered.

Not sure why Bernardo hasn't featured more as always looked good to me. Won't ever forget his clearance off the line against the scum for the 3-1.

That and the hoof up the pitch that sent Andone on his way were his Albion highlights. He's just not good or consistent enough for a team with any aspirations of top half.

Surrey Phil · Jan 15, 2021

Feel sorry for the lad but ultimately he is an accident waiting to happen defensively and Potter knows that.

elwheelio · Jan 15, 2021

Positionally he isn't great. That's fine if you are great going forward but he's not. However, he's always tried his best and I wish him well.

If only we could get another Wayne Bridge!!!!!

CliveWalkerWingWizard · Jan 15, 2021

Since Hughton he has never been given a go, he is a competent if not outstanding left back but like a lot of squad players he has been given a chance to find his best form. How burn gets in in front of him god knows. People’s memories are short in his first season we thought we may lose him to Liverpool. He is a player that has gone backwards under the coaching of potter.

1 When Potter came in, he would have known a fair bit about some of the players, less so others. For whatever reason Bernardo didn't impress and hasn't really responded in a way to persuade the manager his original assessment was wrong.
2 Bernardo came here as a left back, who aspired to be a centre back. He played a decent second half against Man City and worked really hard, but I have to confess I gave him a sarcastic round of applause when he won a tackle, as it was possibly the first one in about a year. I think he has gone backwards.

We have reached a stage now, when we will move players on/let them go and they will do well elsewhere. I think we will see plenty more Norwoods. It doesn't mean they weren't good enough or didn't try, just the standard is now very high and it can't work for everyone.

The Wookiee · Jan 15, 2021

I would rather have Bernado at LB than Burn

Now that's where he went wrong. He should have come as a centre back, and then GP would have played him as left-back. Or centre mid. Or anywhere really.

Surely only going if a replacement is coming in?

Andy Naylor has consistently said the club want to trim the squad down a bit. Partially the reason for so much squad rotation is because we have a lot of players that want/expect regular game time. Streamline the squad a bit and less rotation is the logic.
