BigOscar said:Everton would be very keen to bring in players with the increase in squad required for european football. Heard Martinez talk about needing 8 signings in the summer, so he'll almost certainly be looking at the loan market
LoveCity said:Every Premier League loan of a promising City player lately (Weiss, Boyata, Guidetti) has ended in complete disaster so I would be wary without ironclad guarantees or he'll end up playing for their U21s.
La Liga has clubs on the financial brink begging for players and may be a better outlet. Guidetti would have started every week at Betis or Malaga.
Not next season he wouldn't...sam-caddick said:LoveCity said:Every Premier League loan of a promising City player lately (Weiss, Boyata, Guidetti) has ended in complete disaster so I would be wary without ironclad guarantees or he'll end up playing for their U21s.

I agree, Spain for me would be the most ideal destination because we know due to the financial strains towards the lower end of the league the teams down there thrive on bringing young talent through or loaning young talent.
Lopes would likely play every week in La Liga for someone like Betis.

Not so sure. Weiss, Boyata and, probably, Guidetti didn't/don't get the starts because they weren't good enough or had attitude problems. If Lopes is going to make the leap to our first team squad, assuming he isn't promoted directly, the best preparation would be at a Prem club (and Everton is a decent shout). A season in Spain, Portugal or Holland, almost however good, isn't really going to cut it in my book. The player still has it all to do to prove themselves at City or in the Prem. When they come back from a loan abroad they are not quite back to square one, but almost. Rekik will face this problem and Guidetti has had it too, albeit illness and injury have played a big part too.
Agree that more needs to done to try to get assurances of playing time if loaning to other Prem clubs, but it's obviously difficult.
