[Albion] Ansu Fati **Signed On Loan 01/09**

[nickbrighton]

Jesus Christ it will be a relief seeing him back in this depleted squad.

I know he's not met all expectations here (that's partly why he chose us, to get through these issues) - but we have seen glimmers of absolute world class from him. Really hope he comes back and lasts the season. He's the kinda player that can really push us to the next level.

Can I ask what you were expecting from him that he wasnt delivering before the injury? He had started well, was getting better and better, and had started scoring goals. Were you expecting a Messi type masterclass ebverytime he was playing? we got him on loan because he had a few things to put right , both physically and probably with his approach to playing again. Had he been the finished and complete player- he would have been in Barcas first team and not looking to be loaned out.

Can't wait to hear this belted out from the NS

 

[B-right-on]

A chance we’ll see him in the next couple weeks, perhaps.

Half a million followers so should be reliable. Great news.

 

[Uh_huh_him]

It was only the unrealistic expectations he didn’t meet imo……..was really starting to have an impact when he got injured.

This!

he was starting to hit his straps just before he got injured.
combined well with Pedro/Adingra/Mitoma.

I think he will be very influential in the second half of the season.

It’ll be interesting to see what RDZ does when Fati and Enciso are both fully fit.

Rotation, rotation, rotation?

Yep. Also we'll have the most loaded subs bench in the league. We'll be able to really go for it in the second half of the season.

Well l sure hope he will be, it would be good to see him bow out in style.

Or not bow out yet...

Manage all their minutes to lessen the chances of further injuries and terrify other sides by bringing on such talent with 20 mins to go……

He can't play them both together.

 

[Hotchilidog]

He can't play them both together.

He'll start one and finish with the other

 

[Mellotron]

Enciso can't play in Europe, so he will be prioritised in the League a little more, with Fati continuing to start in Europe, perhaps...?

 

[trueblue]

Our options are phenomenal when everyone’s fit, especially with the extra experience others have gained during the injury crisis. We’re up there with the very top clubs in terms of potential game changers from the bench.

I’m pretty sure Enciso will put into the Europa squad.

I was thinking more that it wouldn't be fair on the other team ...

There is that too....

According to this, not. Solly is tho. Plus a few yoof squad so I assume the numbers allowed don't include U21s as several haven't even made the bench yet.
