Thought this stat was interesting. Obviously I take it with a bit of salt but if we could get him on a loan with an option I'd be pleased. Puts us completely in the driver seat to see if he gets time with us, makes an impact, and can reassess next Summer. Plus being HG gives us more flexibility for an attacking player, which I'm not too high on many of the HG options there.
I don't think it will happen due to the relationship with Chelsea and him wanting clear playing time, but if it were to happen I would back it.
I think those stats aren’t representative, as he doesn’t start the big games - he’s rotated in for the ones they expect to dominate and win.
