Isn't it a limit that if he does then he cant play for another side this season so would have to stay with us? Like Scarlett after playing for us v Fulham. If Ange wasn't keen then he'd be doing nothing which isnt great for anyoneI'd give Ange a chance to have a look at him in the next couple of weeks.
Maybe start him against Burnley.
Completely agree although given he was sent on loan it seems Ange has made his mind up on him perhaps but I'm with you as a mauriding LB in theory he'd be better than Davies but I suppose Davies is more solid defensively and now knows the system well so it depends what Ange is looking for.I'd give Ange a chance to have a look at him in the next couple of weeks.

As others have said, it's an area we need better cover in. Davies is dependable but not really the attacking threat of Udogie, and theoretically Reguilon should be able to provide that element.
Just a question of whether Ange has already made his mind up on him. If he has then fair enough let's move him on.
Personally, I’d rather Ben every day of the week… but that’s just me.Completely agree although given he was sent on loan it seems Ange has made his mind up on him perhaps but I'm with you as a mauriding LB in theory he'd be better than Davies but I suppose Davies is more solid defensively and now knows the system well so it depends what Ange is looking for.
To be fair in pre-season Reguillon left some huge holes allbeit against Barcelona, I think that and training and another match I think it was was probably enough evidence for Ange to say thanks but no thanks and go for Udogie and Davies as his 2 for that position this season so I doubt Reguillon coming back in Jan will change his mind especially with how solid Davies has been at LCB if Udogie is out and we have cover at CB then Ben more than deserves some gametime in his favoured position and thinking about it overall I probbaly prefer Davies there too as he knows the system, is good defensively and positionally and we've seen under Poch that Davies is perfectly capeable going forwards.Personally, I’d rather Ben every day of the week… but that’s just me.
If we start him on Friday we can’t sell him or loan him this window. If the manager liked the look of him he would’ve sanctioned a loan to UtdI'd give Ange a chance to have a look at him in the next couple of weeks.

I'd actually forgotten about this, which does complicate matters.Isn't it a limit that if he does then he cant play for another side this season so would have to stay with us? Like Scarlett after playing for us v Fulham. If Ange wasn't keen then he'd be doing nothing which isnt great for anyone
I wonder if we leave LB alone for a year or so.I'd actually forgotten about this, which does complicate matters.
It would only be for 6 months though.
It sounds like the decision has been made already so if Ange doesn't want him then so be it.
Left back is an area we need to look at though.
