I personally think that would be far from ideal. It would be comfortable, for sure, but not add much in terms of his development. He turns 21 in October and has already learned as much as he is likely to at Sheffield United. Let's be on honest, they're unlikely to see as much of the ball next season, so they'll be adapting their system and all he would be gaining would be working on his defensive duties and more match fitness. That scenario might benefit Tommy Doyle, but McAtee needs to be pushed in a more attacking environment. My preference for him would be to return to the Etihad, or, alternatively, if we are intent on signing Bellingham, maybe loan Dortmund McAtee for the season.
