So then if we loan him out again we could potentially get the same again on top. We should do this with him every year! When the first club inevitably chucks him back, we just loan him out again. £££ Sounds like something equivilent to sub letting and I image is heavily frowned upon Any team now will be getting a free loan which means we will be able to ship him out fairly easy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moore_94 Posted 16 January Share Posted 16 January Kind of move he should’ve got last summer (and probably the summer before last) Sounds like he would go straight in there as first choice as well 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Ric Flair Posted 16 January Popular Post Share Posted 16 January If certain clubs had Luke Thomas on their books having played 50+ PL games, been part of major trophy success etc with contract close to expiry, they'd get £5-10m for him. Naive clubs would be queuing up to pay it, like Liverpool get for their fringe players and other clubs. We'll loan him out, then either let him go on a free in the summer or take the option of another year and then loan him out and release him the following summer. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotch Posted 16 January Share Posted 16 January Rangers are actively looking for a LB. A few names floating about but apparently they are keen on an unnamed England based player that would cost a decent amount. Absolutely nothing to suggest it's Thomas but would be a good move for everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people seem to forget he came into the side out of desperation by Rodger’s and did well. His development since has been mismanaged. He’ll do very well up there a solid defensive full back! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
