Marcos Lopes

Re: Marcos Lopes to Lille on Loan

Does this mean that we are going to get another attacking midfielder this summer? Isco on loan?

Isco going nowhere. That's why Madrid is looking to sell DiMaria, to give him more playing time.


Think this is a great move. Lille is a good team that plays well. Just hope he gets game time because most of our loans have not worked out. Thought maybe he'd get some games with us but if he can get consistent playing time at Lille then it's the better move.

Everton would have been a good destination for a loan. They play similar under Martinez who is a very likable person and a good manager, he may even have got the game time that Gerard Deulofeu had got last season

Deulofeu had nearly 50 appearances under his belt when he moved to Everton. Most were Barca B games but that's still much more than Lopes has played.

I think Lille's about the best we could have hoped for. Not the strongest league, so he should get plenty of game time, but some really tough opposition in there too. They have a good history of developing attackers too.

Hope he can force his way into the team, playing week in week out at a decent standard would do him the world of good.

Good luck to him...

PS: Can this go in the main forum now official? I wasn't aware until came in here.

Re: Marcos Lopes to Lille on Loan

Great move for the boy, lets hope he get +20 games next season with Lille.

I hope Fofana will follow him as well to play regularly in a good league and good team.

I've been already watching Ligue 1 for a certain amount of years, so it'll be more interesting for me in the coming season! Remember Abu's spell at Lorient. French league is also about physics, so Lopes may be injured. But if he's a starter there, he'll return well. If Lille signs 3 proper attacking players, expecialy strikers, Lopes will be improving much better and will be in for the race for the UCL spot with Lille again, as their defence was performed surprisingly solid in the 13-14 season. Enyeama was the best Ligue 1 goalkeeper alongside with PSG's Sirigu. Good luck

 

[carlos tevez is a blue]

Joined Lille on a years loan.

I was hoping he'd go to MLS for the second half of the season but this is a better test I guess. Now I have to watch 4 teams on the TV - wife will kill me.

When you look at it could we have chosen a better loan?

Lille will be playing in Europe next season and if Lopes can impress and cement a starting place I think we could end up having a player on our hands come this time next season,

He can't just pick whoever he wants.

I know, what I am saying is that if we could chose ten clubs we would like to send our youngsters to I reckon a lot would have put Lille down.

We want our youngsters to be loaned to the best possible club we can, Lille are in that bracket.

I would imagine our management would have identified a list of clubs who fitted the criteria we desired,maybe invitations would have been sent and replies awaited.

Lopes is a very desirable player,so,within the above parameters,its possible there may have been a choice.

 

[Kompany is King]

Hope he gets to play regularly.

That has to be one of the key requirements.

Pretty gutted we're letting him go on loan.

I thought that since we need home grown Champion's League players that him, Guidetti and Rekik would be involved more in the first team this year.

The club just seem determined not to break in any of our youngsters.

Can't wait for us to use players like Keiran Westwood and Sinclair for the home quota who will probably never play a game for us.

If you recall, the FIFA players union said it was unfair that we were hit with the high homegrown rule on a reduced squad, and forced UEFA to reduce our homegrown places to 5, meaning we no longer really have anything to worry about.

 

[Neville Kneville]

Ideal move for him provided he gets games. Otherwise I hope we have the power to recall him.

Good luck to him, hope he has a great season & comes back as a possible for the first team.

Besides which all 3 would be on the B list anyway.

Clearly a very talented kid.

Could well be the 'next Hazard' and save us 35m.

Let's hope he smashes it at Lille. They love a good Hazard there.

Hi everybody, I'm a french Lille fan (and Man City too) and I learnt that Marcos Lopes joined us on a one-year loan. In France, we don't know him and last Lille's attack season was pretty bad, we didn't score a lot but we had an awesome defense. So, what can this player bring to us? You think he'll play as a 10 or as a left winger? What are his qualities?
Thanks, and sorry if my english is not good!
