Something to do with possibly getting him a premiership loan in January maybe? Also doesn't the African Cup of Nations start in January?

Mancini does want all four trophies this year, get him back to play against Arsenal in CC. All those development lads need as much senior action as they can get.
Did anyone watch his 30 minutes for Pompy? Impressive?

Razak Impresses
by Neil Weld
He was only on the pitch for 28 minutes, but Abdul Razak has been tipped to be a huge hit at Pompey.
The 18-year-old midfielder – on a one-month loan from Manchester City – came on for David Norris for the final moments of the Blues’ 3-1 defeat at Derby.
A neat flick to shake off the attention of two Rams players and find a team-mate was an encouraging first sign.
And Hayden Mullins believes Razak is a great addition to Pompey’s ranks.
The midfielder said: “He’s a good player with lots of ability – you can tell why he’s at Manchester City.
“He’s come down here to get a few first team games and hopefully he can do that and learn his trade.
“He showed some nice touches and looks like he’s going to be a good player for us.”
Mullins was not so pleased with Pompey’s all-round performance at Pride Park, which saw them 3-0 down at the break before Jason Pearce grabbed a late consolation.
He said: “Derby got off to a flier and it was always going to be tough when we fell behind so early.
“We went there with a game-plan. We prepared tactically and physically – it was just a bad day for us. We’re disappointed and now we have to pick ourselves up.
“But we didn’t let our heads drop – we kept plugging away and working hard.
“We thought that if we could get a goal back early in the second half we would have them wobbling, but unfortunately it didn’t come until late on.”
