Either way I absolutely wish the lad well. He had great attitude and was very good for us. He's certainly too good a player to languish on a subs bench for the next couple of years, a complete waste of a career whatever the money. 

Completely agree in wishing him well. Tbh even if he'd left under a cloud I'd wish him well, ain't got the time to be bitter. I actually thought going Chelsea he'd have been utilised and starred for Chelsea for 6-10 games as Enzo knew him, maybe got a national call up and then dropped down to where he is now by January. But it looks like he's gone straight to the bottom.

 

I just find him over rated. He'd improve our squad to give us a better chance of staying up though, but not the 11, which is really what we need to be improving imo. But, he is our level, a bottom half Premier League player I suppose, just BEK and Facundo are better I think.

This might belong in the conspiray theories thread.......but i'm positive their is a way us and Chelsea could "work things out" to bring him home,if it helps both clubs.

[Lambert09]

Maybe we should just go for jobe Bellingham instead 

[HarryDee8]

If he ain't good enough to break into the Chelsea first 11, then that tells us where he's at

Yeah, he's on the bench. Which considering where they are in the table, isn't bad at all. Not sure what your point is?

KDH would walk into most lower half EPL teams. He already proved himself worthy and useful during relegation with us. Would take him back in a second.

Chelsea with the billion pound squad that are second in the league?

For me this weekend proved exactly why we are crying out for another cm. (8 or 6) 

 

How have we reached a point where we can’t play without soumare.  But we need someone else alongside a more defensive minded partner and soumare is currently the only option. 

[Guest Basildon Fox]

Talk sport were saying that Chelsea will allow KDH to go out on loan in January. Be gutting if he ends up at a Wolves or an Ipswich and we can't take him back because we have Eduard.

[Dahnsouff]

Would rather not have him back, spot could be used better elsewhere in the team, but yes send Edouard back in January.

Send Edouard back... and I know this is going to be contentious... we play Danny Ward up front instead.

Clean sheet guaranteed!

[moore_94]

Only way I could really see us setup with KDH coming back if we go by how we have set up so far would be:

 

Buonanotte, KDH, Bilal

               Vardy

 

With KDH pushing up to press with Vardy and freeing up the space in the middle for Buonanotte and Bilal to come inside off the wing whilst being overlapped by the full back

 

I think I have actually been more impressed by Buonanotte and Bilal when they have started wide and been able to come inside

 

I would be quite happy with that setup

You don’t think he could play as an 8?

I imagine you could probably play him in the double pivot but it would have to be instead of Soumare/Winks - I don’t think you could play KDH with Winks or Soumare as a pair, it would have to be with Wilf

 

But with KDH I think you really need to take advantage of his engine and how much he can press, and personally with how I have thought Bilal and Facundo have looked better starting as wingers/wide players coming inside I think the best way to use him would be in the middle of them and being used as our main presser

Thought a club could only have two loan players at one time. Would need to send Edouard back first? Is this correct?

Were Palace thinking ahead and ****ing us up by loaning us a player who probably told them he doesnt want to be here and  are they under any obligation to take him back allowing a relegation rival to strengthen?

Some journo on Talksport said he thought he's on his way to City.

Maybe, but it just makes sense. Isn't getting into their team, ever, is he? Where  would he prefer to go on loan? Has to be City.
