Subscriber Dan+ Posted August 30, 2021 Subscriber Posted August 30, 2021 He's coming here on loan by the sounds of it. Well, this was the case a few hours ago anyway. I won't lie, I'm slightly underwhelmed - not against the signing as such as I think circumstances have dictated that we've had to throw more money at the defensive problem, but I can't help but feel it's just another stopgap that won't drag us up a level. I think in these circumstances it's very much the type I was expecting but if I was to make a prediction now it's that we'll be having the same discussion in 12 months.

Well yeah it is a stopgap because of defensive problems to cover for? It's probably the best we can do without throwing silly money around like other clubs have.
Waylander Posted August 30, 2021 Posted August 30, 2021 I watched a bit of Fulham last year to keep an eye on Reuben Loftus-Cheek and Lookman looked their best attacking player.

Imagine if Lookman goes to Leicester and becomes genuinely good while Demarai Gray does the same at Everton. He stood out in a poor Fulham side last season. He is blessed with quite a lot of natural ability but I don't think I've seen him develop much at any of his clubs since he first signed for us aged 19ish. Leicester would probably be a better chance for him to do that though than any of those other settings.

Subscriber Dan+ Posted August 31, 2021 Author Subscriber Posted August 31, 2021 Still think a winger was a bigger priority than a centre mid.
