As posted on the Zinc thread, I think we took advantage of Angelino’s price to buy him as insurance against an injury pile-up. If not needed, he could be sold on at a potential profit.
Be fuming if I were him.
That being said, he didn't have a great game for the EDS on Saturday. The last 15 minutes or so he was a bit better and won back the ball, put in some decent balls, but up until then he was comfortably one of the worst on the pitch.

He's not going to make a profit after a season in the u23 league.

Then why would you be fuming if you're comfortably the worst person on the pitch at EDS level?

Posted on Saturday in the thread about City EDS vs Wolves u23's.
There was a few times where he stood out on Saturday with a few of his touches/beating players in tight situations but he made at least 2/3 unbelievable mistakes (foreshadowing the first team a few hours later!) which fortunately didn't result in goals.
I've always looked out for Angelino; my Dad and uncle bumped into Brian Marwood on a Spanish golf course 6 years ago and he said "we have a 16 year old left back that will be in the first team in a few years", at that point I hadn't even heard of him. I've seen him since he was about 17 and he didn't have these mistakes in him.
Not sure if fitness is an issue but considering he was our only apparently fit natural left back on Saturday and he was playing at the CFA and not at Carrow Road, I'd be concerned about his future.
As a side note, my overall impression from Saturday vs Wolves was that no one looked like they could turn out for City's first team. Obviously hope I'm wrong about that as with Doyle, THB and McDonald you've got some legit Berts.

Ha, yes. I meant was he was bought with a view to insurance or profit. However as you suggest, if he ends up rotting in the pub league, any potential profit will be gone.
