Lookman loan to RB Leipzig

[ToffeeTim]

I just hope we haven't burnt out bridges with the kid. He needs to be reintegrated during pre season and hopefully he will have developed and be a better player. I don't like this move, but if he gets game time and matures as an individual then it could have some benefit. I wouldn't hold my breath though.

I thought he played loads of times for them? Maybe that was in Bundesliga 2?

Yeah that’s right, poorly written on my part , he did play a number of times but failed to establish a place was what I believed.

He did play about 20-25 games for them last season, but mostly as a sub, and in all sorts of roles, left mid, central mid, right mid, he never really settled.

But they are really into giving their young players a chance, each game they play, the majority of their outfield players are 23 or under. It's crazy how young that team is.

Mad one this. Best of luck to him though, hope he proves why he shouldn’t have been loaned out.

Sounds like a good place for a young player to go out on loan. Lookman may have had some good advice.

I'd like to like them, but cant with that ownership they have.

I read what they did to Salzburg.

Horrible manager with something new for us to hate. Big fat liar that does not even care to develope our best young players for the Long term benefit of our club.

This loan proves that big Sam is a liar more than anything else. Sick and disgusting man managing our club now.

 

[Borussin]

On the plus side its gives me a reason to watch more football (provided he plays). When is there next match ?

they play Borussia Mönchengladbach on Saturday.

I hate them cos of it lol Can't stand any of those teams, feel sort of the same way about Hoffenheim too.

But Leipzig do have some excellent young players, really good. Their scouting network is very impressive.

 

[Azza]

They've just laughed at him about this on 5Live. lol lol

 

[technojoe]

Cannot believe this move. Wtf!

 

[electricblue]

Look man, this is crazy.

 

[xreyuk123]

This is [Poor language removed] bizzare.

Wouldn’t have happened had he got the game time he deserved

 

[Nymzee]

Will make or break him. He's back here in July regardless.

 

[GrandOldTeam]

He wasn't getting a sniff of football here so who can blame him?

 

[Boba Fret]

Apparently it was his choice to go there.
