A strange one for both player and us, obviously he is talented but as he is already an international why would he want to fight for the number two keeper spot at a premier club, he isn't getting past Eddie for number 1 and I would rather we just promoted Muric to be the number 2 for real before we piss him off and have to sell him. It was bad enough losing Gunn tbh.
Gunn is a good keeper but has no where near the ball playing skills of Muric.
We kept the right one

Indeed, so we don't want to lose him as well, that was my point really, buying another top notch prospect that is already an international isn't going to help, let's be honest it will be hard enough to convince a top talent to stay and play cup games only.
 
A season of first team football is probably what he needs but if the idea is for him eventually come back here and make it as a cup goalie for us then it will have to be at a team that plays out from the back. Sending him somewhere where that side of his game isn't tested or improved will send him backwards as far being a City keeper is concerned.

Muric has played out from the back since before he joined us, he won't go backwards if he goes somewhere more direct, just like if Eddy spent a year under Pulis he'd not forget everything. In fact depending on the areas of his game that the coaches think need developing, going somewhere old school could be beneficial.

The only issue is that he won't get experience passing out in high pressure situations, and he'll need to get that at some point before being used for us regularly, but it might be a case of needing 2 loans, or learning that through cup games.

Personally, if he's to make it at City he'd be better off staying and training under Pep and playing league cup games than going somewhere that plays hoof ball. He won't necessarily forget everything he's learned but it's such a huge part of our game, I can't see it being helpful to him or us for him to not be playing that way for a year. If he goes somewhere more direct it will probably speed up his chances of making it as a number one somewhere but I doubt it'd be with us. I don't really watch much football outside of the premier league so I've no idea if there a team with a suitable playing style that would be interested in taking him but I think that would be the best all round.

He's not going to be number 1 for us.
 
I know. And he won't be a number two either if he's loaned out somewhere that doesn't play out from the back.
Yes he will. He's already a number 2, going somewhere and getting experience in front of crowds isn't going to make him worse.
