Getafe want Morata on loan. They want to keep the Sarabia/Morta duo together. Well, they also want Leon.
How much playing time would he get this season if he is promoted to the first team? What it would do to his development? He is better off playing as a starter for Getafe this season while still being our player.
This might sound like a funny idea but why dont we establish a partnership with another primera club (one who maybe struggling financially) and send our youth to their team as part of this partnership. One of the clauses could included fielding a minimum x players from our youth system. This way the said club gets money &/potentially quality players and we get a better prospect back when we see them fulfilling their potential in primera. Maybe we could even look further than Primera and maybe even a club that consistently qualifies for Europa/CL (could be a minnow like Rangers or some scottish team).
Ouch. I am not really sure about this, but in FM (I know I know) you cant have an affiliated club in the same division as you, so am guessing thats the case IRL too.
It doesn't need to be an affiliated club in that sense, but like both Getafe, us and the players have benefitted from such an "arrangement" in past, I am sure the same connection could be established with other clubs. Mallorca perhaps?
You mean like Parejo, Soldado, Rodrigo, Negredo, Marcos Alonso, Opare, etc? What good is it to loan a player to getafe and then have him come back to sit on the bench? With whom has this method worked at all? Granero? He would still be behind Alonso, Khedira and possibly Sahin in playing time. We should promote Morata to have the minutes adebayor left.
I ********ing loved De la Red as a player, but also as a person. What a good, humble dude. I wish him all the best, and wish more of our players could be like him both on ( no heart problems tho ) and off the pitch.
It's not like they can't play the last 10-20 minutes in games were we are up by 2 or more. That imo would benefit them more then playing for Getafe, who knows if they are even gonna be starters there.
I'm not sure I agree with you especially since there are going to be other first team fringe players in just as much need of minutes as those two. I don't see Mourinho using rwo out of three subs every game we're up two or more to give Morata/Sarabia a runout. The fact of the matter is Getafe is not going to get this huge influx of cash this summer so they're still looking for players as cheaply as possible. Also last season despite their finish they were pretty good at times but they were missing a striker very badly, Morata would be a perfect fit and I was advocating this move back at the end if the season. He'll get plenty of minutes as will Sarabia whose talent and skillset will make it hard not to include him and has been been mentioned they'll be together. I really think Getafe is the ideal situation for both of them and I think we have to trust Mourinho, especially with his recent comments about our youth, that they won't be forgotten or cast aside. If they continue to develop at this rather rapid pace and live up to expectations it will be impossible to anyway.
Exactly which of our current crop of players are showing disrespect on and off the pitch? We have a good mannered group of players who are all humble. Don't mistakes Ronaldo's competitiveness with his 'morality' the guy is only doing what a forward is meant to be doing, constantly looking to score goals. I say Ronaldo cuz thats the only person i can see being mistaken as not having a humble attitude.
I don't think Mourinho cares much about our youth anyway. I just don't see Getafe as an ideal place to develop right now. They will get minutes there that's for sure, but they won't become RM material there. I hope i am wrong as i like these guys.
Carvajal, Álex, Sarabia and Morata starting again in the semifinal against Ireland. Once again Deulofeu has been a stand out and he scored a great goal to put Spain ahead 1-0. And he only just turned 17.
Sarabia and Deulofeu have been the stand-out players. Deulofeu with a goal and Sarabia with an assist.
I wouldn't call that an assist, but yeah Sarabia passed to Deulofeu who made the goal out of nowhere. And also out of nowhere Sarabia just shot from distance and Spain are now up by two.
Sarabia has had a very strong half. Looks very confident on the ball. Deulofeu (translated = God made him) is a good player too. No wonder cules have been pimping him.
Sarabia is running the show. Impressive. Morata on the other hand has allowed the irish rugby defenders to take him mentally off the game.
I thought you were high on him now? I don't understand why people keep claiming that Morata is great with his back to the goal, with headers etc. He doesn't seem like the physical type to me.
