Some of whom have already had game time at their clubs, hopefully they will go into the Prem squad and not be loaned out or be part of the U21s ?

Some will, some won't - they can't all fit into the first team though, so some of them will have to go on loan - always interesting to see who does where and how they get on.

Plenty of discussion here


You also can follow the window here.


Both Weiffer and Minteh are more than experienced in top flight European football and will likely go straight in to the Senior squad - at least I hope so - they both can fill roles that Hürzeler will likely use heavily in his system.

Not sure about the others we’ve signed but the youth teams and loan programme are perfectly adequate pathways for young players to develop. The Premier League is a big jump from both PL2 and European leagues in terms of pace and intensity so our future squad players will be some of those now playing in the Us and going out on loan this window to build up stamina/bulk and hone technical skills with regular matches.

But it is what we do :shrug:

Welbeck, Mitoma, Pedro, Estupinan, Igor, Barco went into the prem squad

Bissouma, Caicedo, MacAlistair, White, Sanchez, Hinshelwood, Verbruggen, Van Hecke, WBG, Baleba, Ferguson didn't

Looking at the signings it's more likely they're here to be developed

It never worked out too bad before did it :shrug:

Indeed they didn't. But they didn't go straight into the first team squad which was the question asked :shrug:
Here you go again, trying to pick holes. So, which part of "and not be loaned out" did your razor-sharp holes-to-nit-pick sensors fail to register?
