Ademola Lookman

[meagher94]

Think in this case he will benefit a lot more from being here.

We have a lot of games to play next season if things go to plan, and currently only
Mirallas, Lennon, DCL, Lookman and Sandro to play the wings.

Bolasie is a long way off yet, I imagine he will need a number of games to get back to feeling himself, too.

True but 'currently' is the key word there. By the looks of things we'll be signing probably 2 more attacking players, 3 if Rom goes.

Yeah true, still think our Lookman will be in the mix though.

Hopefully!

I can't wait to see more of this little ferrari. Hope he can get enough playing time.

 

[LookmanShootsGOLLLL]

Lookman will bang in 10+ next year. When he shoots he GOLLL!

Davies was the main one with Holgate to come through into the limelight last season.

This year I hope Kenny and Lookman have similar success and DCL continues improving.

Lad's in no rush at all. He's 19 and gets to play without the pressure of being relied upon week in and week out like when we had tiny squads. He's clearly got the talent to suceed, he'll get his chance.

Just the pace we need. Opportunities will be here for him next season if he takes them.

Lookman is one of only 2 healthy out and out wingers we have, he will get a lot of playing time I think.

 

[BiggyRat]

Looks a top talent does Lookman. But with all the additions we're making, potentially Sigurdsson/Sandro playing off the left or right and then Mirallas/Bolasie, I struggle to see him getting a lot of game time next season, which he needs. Should he go out on loan?

Considering we brought in Rooney for his winning mentality & experience, sending the young-uns out on loan would defeat that purpose.

 

[ilikecheese]

The teamsheet fume is gonna be insane this season.

Already preparing for the why did we pay ££££ for X player if they aren't starting.

The answer of course is because we can.

I reckon he'll get plenty of game time n the europa, the slightly less combative nature will suit him and he'll bang goals in. I really like this kid, i hope he dent get frozen out by the new big signings but then again, if he does, its because all our signings are boss togger players.

The lad was magnificent in the build-up to Wayne's goal in Tanzania.

If he keeps working hard, he will likely become an England international before his 21st birthday.

 

[Canuck Darryl]

He will get lots of playing time. I wouldn't be suprised to see him picked as starting right wing.

i said similar in the rooney thread, he held the ball really well in a tight spot and still managed to slide a pass to Rooney in space. The fat lad did the rest. Hopefully there won't be a pressure to play him and he can play in games that suit him so he can develop without too many setbacks. He knows where the goal is, I'm always impressed how many of his shots are either on target or jolly close.
