Bersant Celina

Well there you go now.

Looks like he's going out on loan, probably to FC Twente:

Celina: "A loan would be perfect. It's just what I need now. The club continues to buy. There is nothing I can do about it. I cannot be put into the team ahead of a £40million player (Sane). It unfortunately does not work like that."

Well,purchasing all this young talent was bound to have a knock on effect and put a few noses out.....

Its up to our kids to step up.

It's sad to see, but I guess that's the nature of the industry. Only a small, elite minority of academy graduates are going to make it into our first team.

He should be relishing the challenge instead of putting his hands up in surrender!

You can have the best facilities and coaching in the world, but without the self belief and determination to succeed, you won't get anywhere.

Perhaps he's implying he needs regular football to show that he's good enough to play for us, but knows he won't get it without a loan?

It's his comment about not being selected above a £40m player that irks me. If he shows Pep he has the ability he will be selected whoever we buy. The loan will only do him good if he has the self belief to succeed.

Even prior to our big money, young attacking potential signings I thought the only way for him now is a loan, given that he hasn't played really under Pep so far in the summer, and that he's just not at the level required. Under Pellegrini, he was lucky in a way that all our attacking mids were missing at a time, as the likes of Aleix Garcia are way ahead of development.

The Eredivisie seems like an ideal scenario, just as it was for Byrne. He's still very talented of course, and at the very worst, we can easily sell him for a few quid afterwards.

But he's right. Unless Sane, Sterling, Navas, De Bruyne, Silva, Nolito and Nasri are all injured or severely out of form, Celina won't get regular games, Pep or no Pep.
