Doesn't really make sense if Faes is on the way out.

He needs regular playing time, like all of our youngsters do. The Championship would be great for him.

None of that Prem experience that Cooper wants, will be down to 5th choice once Coady is back

 

Even if Faes does go I don’t think Cooper would use him

Would be a great move, but we should be keeping him if we can shift Faes.

[DezFox]

Seen a few saying Leicester open to perm? 

[Sunbury Fox]

Bristol City is not a great move for him. Shame one of the promotion favourites haven't come calling.

Of course. Pure PSR profit.

[Brizzle Fox]

Bristol City have one of the best defensive set ups in the Champs (4th best defence last season) and looks like Dickie out for a while.

 

Would be a great move for him if Cooper ain't gonna pick him.

[Tuna]

Would be a good move for him, a 40 game season in the Championship would be ideal for this development.

[Grebfromgrebland]

The best think to do would be to sell him at below market value and buy someone worse but with 400 games under their belt but with their best days behind them. 

 

Ideal age around 32-34 that way they'll have the requisite amount of experience to make up for the fact that their legs have gone.

[South Shire Fox]

Imagine there will be a few who will feature tomorrow then be loaned. Be a good move for him. Hes deffo ready

You forgot the 3 year contract on 100k a week! How careless of you.

[Haywood_6]

Good move for him, needs regular game time and Bristol City is a decent club. Think he'll come back a better player

Who's to say they didn't?? 

[JimJams]

Loan Ben out, loan Chalobah in!  (Ok, unlikely).

Faes is definitely open to a perm.

[JimJams]

Pure gold that.

[Stormfox]

Rudder and Co had an epiphany and going to loan out Nelson during next 2 days?? 

Not playing Braybrooke, Alves and Nelson tonight is criminal!!

Like coady?

[Tielemans63]

I can see a Ben White-style scenario happening here, wherein he plays so well for his loan team that a big team pick him up before he's really played much for his parent club.

 

I'd like to see what he can do for us right now, tbh.

[themightyfin]

Pompey in for him as well on loan.

I think this kid could be special. Really hope we get to see him back on Filbert Way.
