Mark 'expert' Lawrenson Posted 23 April 2019 Posted 23 April 2019 Just reading the Diabate topic and I thought of Kapustka, came here as a bright, young promising international and his career has stalled completely, farmed out on loan, does anybody think he has a future with us? Personally I don’t, not with Barnes, Albrighton and Gray at the club, shame as it was an exciting signing at the time.
Gerard Posted 23 April 2019 Posted 23 April 2019 He's not pulled any trees up in the Belgium second division. 23 in December with a current cruciate ligament injury, I'd say it's highly likely he'll never be good enough at this level.

Blue ROI Posted 23 April 2019 Posted 23 April 2019 Forgot all about him really. Highly unlikely to make it now. Should we sell Mendy this summer on that will be that for the 2016 summer signings.
Aus Fox Posted 23 April 2019 Posted 23 April 2019 If he can get fit again, would love to send him on loan at somewhere like WBA, see what he can do in England.

He was the Polish Messi before he came here but by spending all that money on him we put too much pressure on him to not be shit which is what turned him shit.
MC Prussian Posted 23 April 2019 Posted 23 April 2019 Shame about the lad, really. From Polish international to Belgium second-tier obscurity, now out for months. Wish him a speedy recovery. Doubtful to ever make it back to LCFC as a first-team regular, will either be sold or loaned out at the first occasion, I'd go with the latter. The type of injury in particular is a toughie, wonder how he recovers from that. He needs patience and willpower to come back to the same level.

If he was as brilliant as you suggest, £7.5 million was a steal. Certainly not a figure to scare someone with any real ability.
Clarkey123 Posted 23 April 2019 Posted 23 April 2019 What can you do with a player you spent nearly 8mil on ,is injured and made no impression in the Belgian 2nd division? He’s still young so would seem pointless letting him go on a free and no one is going to pay anything for him. Just hope he can regain fitness and maybe get a loan to somewhere like cov so he can sort his career out - sad times for the lad

Hmmm. I did think he might be, but added to his original 'Unfortunately we ruined him.' comment it seemed a bit too laboured to work as satire. That plus it's not a comment made by anyone in the thread, or tbh one I remember anyone making about Kapustka. Although I can think of plenty who are quite capable of such guff.
The Horse's Mouth Posted 23 April 2019 Posted 23 April 2019 Feel bad for him, didn't he join a bit like Kramz taking us over bigger offers but ended up being canned like. Better off going back to Poland
foxy boxing Posted 23 April 2019 Posted 23 April 2019 I can't see him having any sort of future here, it is a shame because he was young and talented but hasn't grasped the opportunity. best for both parties if we can offload him.
Keiriel Posted 23 April 2019 Posted 23 April 2019 I still believe he can come good, although it's down to Brendan to decide whether he stays or goes.
