Lovely assist. Great vision.
I think it was a good idea to loan him out.
We've got Paulinho, Dembele, Bentaleb, Capoue, Sandro, all competing for places in central midfield. In the number ten role we've got Eriksen, Chadli, Siggy, and hopefully Lamela all competing for places.
If he'd stayed he might get a game here and there, with a few sub appearances, but it's unlikely he'd get a run of games. At Fulham he'll be playing Premier League football every week. The whole time he'll be learning and improving, whilst giving us the opportunity to see exactly what he has to offer.
If he's still a persona non grata in the summer, his value is likely to be considerably higher too. Just seems like a good deal all round.
But he is playing the number 10 role nowHopefully by the summer he'll be ahead of all of those competing for the deep lying playmaker role

Hes not made that role his own yet mate!Yeah but I doubt he's going to dislodge Eriksen

That's half the problem, I don't even know what some of our players best positions are and we signed too many midfielders for them all to play in their preferred roles. Not many players will change leagues, be out of position & in and out of the side & be able to display their best form.
