Oh damn, could have sworn they made the knockouts.
Well, enjoy the German women then, young lad!

Looks like Sam has been to the Moshiri school of PR and motivation. Classy statement to rubbish Lookman in public. Oh wait, it's an anti-young players' club now! Yes, we've done it to Barkley (I know he's crap and old news now), Vlasic, Keane, and now Lookman. don't worry we are changing our identity, we are NOT the place for the development of young exciting talent. bye!

Yeah it’s exciting, and for the most part youngsters spending time abroad is good. However, he needs to play. Going to derby he would have been in contention and they would have been aiming for promotion - every game would matter. This would have been good for his discipline and we would know if he has the minerals to play a bigger part for us next year.
Half a season on the bench in a foreign country would leave us non the wiser. I assume this is why sam is frustrated
the main issue is he SHOULD be on the bench and can be bought on to scare defences in the last twenty and the more he would have done that, the more he would have learnt and pushed for a starting place.
I get that going to Germany and champions league is a great experience but he is good enough to be in the 18.
Napoli wanted Klaassen, Sevilla got Sandro and RB get Lookman.
It is madness we cannot bed them in.

Welcome to Barcelonaton FC
Sounded like he didn't want to when offers came in.
And I'm pretty sure he'd get game time once we got comfortably midtable, same with most of the fringe players.

Didnt realise that. Someone said they were still in and I never checked.
Will give him fewer opps then.
difference is Messi can control the ball, keep hold of it, and thread a pass. 3 things Lookman has shown very little of. This is why he isn't playing.
All professionals know a team has a squad of 25+ players, and they should accept that sometimes they aren't picked. And if they aren't picked, they should know they need to up their game and work rate to force their way in to the squad. Lookman doesn't seem to see things this way. He stormed out of the club before a game because he wasn't picked, instead of sticking around and supporting his team mates. He has chosen his own Loan move against the advice of the club (lets wait and see how much game time he gets once they suss out his ability and attitude in training!).
And I think Sam's comments on the Klassen loan collapse are quite telling as well. He said Klassen wont he frozen out of the squad because he is a model professional who doesn't stir things up when he is left out the squad, UNLIKE OTHER players.

Supposedly been brought in as back up. He does seem to have a fiery teenage temper lol refusing to listen to his parents and going there. Sam commented that he wanted him to stay but couldn't have his attitude around the place if he refused.
Maybe given the fact he's already played in lower leagues in England he wanted to sample the German leagues, which is great, as long as he gets some games.
Not that Sam would've used him here anyway.....

Rangnick said: "I've known about Lookman for two years, and have followed his development. We wanted to have more back-up in his position, and we're delighted to have him here.”
If only he was our DoF ...
