Many forget Zin has lived and played in Holland before when we loaned him out to PSV?

I mentioned that earlier- it wasnt a great experience for him. They didn't play him and we never really found out why.

Also a good point. Hope whatever happens, happens for the best.

Do we have scouts and staff assigned to addressing these types of issues in advance or did we fire them all and just decide to spend money/ get rinsed by other teams who will take advantage of us?

Whoever decided to give Zinchenko a 5 year deal last summer wants binning. Madness.

If he holds out, that'll be twice he's refused to leave and prevented us from replacing him with an actual left back.

We have 1 spot free regardless. We can sign LB even if Zinchenko doesn't move. Put him in the stands in that case.

The same loon that gave Gundogan a new one.

It's not preventing us though. There's literally no reason we couldn't sign a LB regardless.

With that could we not keep Zinchenko and possibly play him in midfield in the cup games with say Doyle?

The zinchenko thing isn't that we need homegrown spots, it's that pep doesn't want 3 left backs in the squad.
