Maffeo and Angelino loaned to Girona

[Thaksinssoldier]

They are not going to play regularly this season are they. What fucking agenda you banging on about now

"What fucking political agenda?"

They've gone to Pep's brother's team, if you can't figure it out then maybe go lie down for a year or so. Hardly being done for the betterment of the players, is it.

 

[Wrighty Wrexham]

I see no issue. Good experience for them as clearly neither is going to get any in the Prem this season, what with both Maffeo and Angelino being 3rd choices for their respective positions

Point is they should be at least second if not on occasion first choice.

Spanish football in general is pretty poor outside of the big 3 and Sevilla. Standard in the second league is actually below them if you ask me. West Ham would've been a good option because Cresswell and Masuaku are both pretty poor.

Couldn't disagree more. No way West Ham are going to take two young City FBs and play them. One slight mistake and West Ham's fans will be totally on their back with stuff like 'why are we playing two of City's young Spanish kids just to serve their benefit?". They'd be dropped after one misplaced pass. Premiership loans are risky as fuck, likewise Championship ones. West Ham aren't going to drop one of their players of the season last year (Creswell) to give Angelino game time.

We must surely have something lined up for our defence!!

this, the fact that Pep doesn't fancy any of our fullbacks really yet he and Angelino haven't nailed down a spot tells me Pep doesn't really fancy them either, so they'll be used to make a few bob.

We now have eight first team defenders, one of which is constantly injured, one is 18, and four others are over 30. I'd be amazed if we didn't have a plan to bring someone in in January, unless we made the bizarre decision to recall Mangala or piss of Sunderland and bring Denayer back. This for me is close to confirmation that we're doing business and are optimistic about our chances.

 

[Alex - City Matters]

I think especially with Maffeo, it's the fact that he was at Girona last season. Are you telling me he hasn't progressed one bit since then - a poor move imo.

If the player is better, I'd say they would. And who said we'd send both? We could easily have sent one.

Yeah need a lie down after reading the shite you post

It's fun reading the insight you have into my football club

Whats to say their both guaranteed to start for Girona. Their second in the league second can't be doing too badly.

Should they? Quick, get on the phone to Pep and let him know.
