It's not as simple as that is it? Pritchard is an attacking mid, Dembele is a striker and their second highest scorer.

pritchard is a quality player, fulham desperately need quality no matter what position so yes it is as simple as that.

This is a strange one to me. Everybody raved about his form last year and couldn't wait to get him in the team.Unfortunately he's had this injury and needs to get fit but I still think he would be better off staying and getting fit in the squad. There are a lot of games in various competitions until the end of the season and would get a number of oportunities. What I have seen of him he is a better player than Carrol and to me offers more than Lamela. He's 22 going on 23 so he needs games with us now.

Lol so they tit us about over SB but we then let them have pritch.cant see it myself
Maybe its a sign that that barrier is broken. 20m for Berahino, and Pritchard as a parting gift... Maybe a bit optimistic, also not sure what I would feel about such a deal..

You think Levy would be that petty? Because I don't. West Ham have said some unsavoury things about Levy but that didn't stop us doing business with them.

They better bloody play him if this ends up happening. I genuinely think he'd get more game time from Poch than he would that idiot Pulis..

Knabry hardly kicked a ball on loan at WBA, hence why he was called back by Wenger.

Pritchard will take that slot, but I'm not convinced he will see much game time due to a lack of match sharpness. Time will tell.

I'll be absolutely gutted if we ship Pritchard off again, will be a real asset in the run in.

Issue is, Alli has become a main stay in the number 10 position, Eriksen will almost always play, Chadli Lamela and Son are all battling for the third slot and Onomah has clearly impressed Pochettino enough to be the sixth man for those three slots. Then when you consider that, even if primarily used in the centre, Dembele Mason and Carroll are all comfortable there, Pritchard has a big queue in front of him with no match fitness whatsoever after a half season out injured.

At least if he plays regular premiership football for the rest of the season he might impress enough to be seriously considered for next season (like Walker, Rose, Townsend and to an extent Carroll).

If he wasn't coming back from long term injury it would make no sense to loan him but because he is the move does make sense
