Rumour mill is licking up that well go all guns blazing for Neto this summer.

Id love him, and it pains me to say it, but I think he might be looking a bit higher up the table than us sadly.
He's certainly the one that stands out as being of the right quality for now and also available.

Whether we put up the money or are his best option is of course yet to be seen.

He's about to come on... 15-ish minutes to go but there'll be plenty added on (the ref pulled his calf and had to be replaced by the 4th official).

I'd rather he be an option on our bench than an option on Sevilla's tbh.

If we are considering loaning him out it should be to a team where he is expected to be a regular starter IMO.
An unused sub today against the team who are bottom in the league. Instead, another forward came on and scored immediately.

Not the best choice of loan club as it stands currently.

So far ridiculous decision, but concerned it seems (opinion) he is not of the level they thought he would be

For what it’s worth Sevilla were loosing until the 81 min so I can understand why they looked towards more experienced players in this game.

What I would say tho is that the chances of him starting any time soon are slim to none. Both En-Nesyri and Isaac, who is looking like an exciting young CF talent, are very much set as the front two in the team currently. Bar injury I don’t see Veliz getting a start.

Def looking like a poor loan at this stage.

Championship might be a good move for the remainder of the season. As long as he gets regular minutes, plus it would be good for him to be in England as moving countries and culture is very hard.

Not possible to do that now. He’s there for the remainder of the season whether he gets minutes or not

Not sure if he is injured but he’s not in the squad today.

Hope this loan doesn't turn out to be a total dud - really like the look of Veliz and he needs minutes.

If he gets mins at Sevilla then great, if not then it won't do him harm either.
Sevilla is a CL-level team so he would have expanded his horizons just training there.
If he had gone to a lower-level team playing regularly against inferior opposition what would he have learnt?

Well less than he would have learnt here. So it would have been pointless
