Ibe out on loan?

[paulfrank]

I cannot see an advantage to AFCB to loan Ibe out. He certainly needs a change in the way he sometimes plays, but surely OUR training coaches can get the best out of him and change his worrying decisions on playing the ball instead of (not) walking it into the net.
They are the coaches who see him daily, not a different set of trainers from a third party club. It's up to them to change him

Ibe plays better out on the left, on the right he seems to run into dead ends.

After Eddie saying he was integral to our team, there's lots of speculation today that he could be on his way to Celtic, on loan (we allegedly want £20M for him... and not surprisingly Celtic won't pay that).

A few other teams are apparently interested, too (Fiorentina and Napoli as well as Galatasaray).

Would be surprised if we get any sort of substantial fee for him, isn’t his contract up next summer?

 

[CherryBare]

Don't see the point in loaning him out, he would then leave on a free next summer

20 will soon go down to 10. Then he'll go.

I think £12m would be a fair price.

 

[Lermanator]

I think £12m would be a fair price.

Mousset went for £10m and I think he was a pretty similar case (some raw attributes but not the performances, one year left on contract).

Think £10m for Ibe's about right and I'd take that if offered.

I can't see it happening. Brooks injured, Stanislas injured, Danjuma injured... if Wilson gets injured and Ibe goes, our backup is, what, Kilkenny?

We'd wait until January surely?

I think if the money is there (10-12m) we'll take it and risk it

I don't think he'll leave at the moment Sam. But Kilkenny is a great prospect - possibly not ready just yet.

We can change formation. Adam Smith and Daniels have played wide midfield and King can if we play a front three. Lewis Cook has also played as a deep lying wider midfielder. And there is still Kilkenny after that. Not ideal but if we get a chance to recoup cash on Ibe then worth it?

I think a lot of this will hinge on what the club knows about Danjuma but isn’t saying.

 

[yesyescherry]

i’m clutching at straws here, but we haven’t had an official story announcing that danjuma has x y or z injury ruling him out for however number of months which we usually get in cases of long term absentees

so on that basis maybe it’s weeks and not months and he doesn’t need surgery

 

[cockbeard]

I thought we (the Vitals medical staff, including myself) had already diagnosed him, and prescribed corrective footwear

 

[Tinpot Club]

My guess it’s one of nagging injuries that they haven’t been able to diagnose yet. Hopefully it’s something that sorts itself out over time and he doesn’t need any specific treatment

 

[afcdibby]

I would keep Ibe. Certainly worth a place in the matchday 18 as it stands.
