    would've been happier if he went on loan to an english side to get to know the english game better.

    Maybe, I would have thought it was a completely different style of football though.. which is more my point

  • It means that I think you missed the true meaning of what I posted in response to the OP i.e that the standard of football and coaching out there is likely to be higher than he'd get on loan over here.

    It most probably will be better coaching over there but I would've preferred seeing him go to a league 2 club. He's fairly lightweight so a few first team games in that division may have been better in getting him more used to the physical side of the english game and would be easier to track his progress as a fan.
    But anyway all the best to him, hope it works out well.

    ah.. nah, I do get that .. I think Talal made the point better than me ^ :)

    I'd rather they work on producing an all round better footballer than farming him out to some 4th division club to get kicked off the park because he's not the biggest and needs toughening up.

    Spanish football is a contact sport too btw.

    Thanks wasn't aware. Fair enough your opinion, mine is different.

    I saw him play at Bromley. Loads of skill but a bit light under pressure. Still very young so I sincerely hope he gets that bit stronger and returns to challenge for a place at the start of next season.

    Wow, Spanish football AND contact sport in a sentence! Loads of play-acting out there, methinks...

    Also some flipping good football too and I know which league I'd want my youngsters playing in for experience. I'm equally sure if he needs beefing up he'll get that too. In CP we trust :-)
  • I think it's more of a case that it benefits him better, he gets more footballing experience and is closer to home
    I don't know how 'tippy tappy' the football is in San Roque's division, so he may get knocked about anyway

    Well, he started in Spain.. so you would think 17 years of it would be enough if it was going to have a positive effect :). Either way, playing anywhere is better than not.

    Sure and whats the betting that this would be the last we see of him? The climate and the culture/language easier for him...

  • would have been happier if he does actually go out on loan that it was to a league two team like Crawley or Southend where he can progress and play with decent players.

    Good move for him, going back to his homeland and eating paella.
    Might help him put on weight

    Yep...I thought we were due to sign a centre half off them in the summer window?

    San Roque are in the third tier of Spanish football so I am nor sure how this would compare quality wise , I suspect it would be L2 Conference level , the crowds are a lot lower than in England at this level .

    Bover says on Twitter (according to Bing translate) he will return to us. Like others I would have preferred him to go somewhere like Barnet or Dagenham.
