Alejo Véliz

He won't get game time for Sevilla though

Sevilla's 2 leading goal scorers have scored 5 and 3 league goals respectively. Methinks that paltry return is why they want Veliz on loan. Now explain to me why you think he will not get any game time.

Why not? Playing a Sevilla B lad currently and someone with 3 goals all season.

I’d say game time is more important
The environment here isn’t dissimilar to parts of Argentina

I think weaning him off latin comforts (aside those embedded in our club since 78) is probably important. Otherwise it starts looking like admitting defeat on homesickness

Or how he will get more game time here.
Dropping him to the academy he will also be fighting for game time with the likes of Soonsup-bell, Lankshear and Scarlett who al also need game time.

Personally i would rather we keep him here.

Because when everyone's fit he's behind En-Nesyri, Romero, Ocampos, Suso and the mighty Erik Lamela.

Not to mention they're a club in total disarray, holding on for survival. Not an ideal environment to learn in.

Keep him here developing in our own environment.

Minutes and the stress will be good for him. Theres something about him that seems promising but he needs the game time for his development. If we can't offer that here right now then Sevilla is as good a place as any.

 

[johnola]

so he was close to a return- would the medical expect him to be at 100%?

 

[Chrissivad]

Good for him to have lamela over there with him

I think a few weeks out. He was training out on the pitch on his own (no ball work I think)

The medical won't expect him to be 100%, probably just making sure he will be ok to play for the rest of the season

 

[Sandman]

I really hate that term "here we go" its not a catch phrase! grrr

He gets some warm weather, a chance to play and its his lingo. Personally I would have rather kept him as well. But when Son gets back his mins could be very very limited. So as long as he plays. Then good.

 

[AjaxDeSuperYids]

Makes sense as its a great opportunity for him to get minutes. Sevilla are both toothless and awful in the striker department.

And big part of this is Scarlett is back and is not allowed to go on loan again this season.

And Lamela can train him to be a better prick

Given the no.10 shirt

Well when you are given the number 10 shirt you expect to get minutes, alot of minutes.

Sounds promising, hopefully it is a productive loan for him.

He didn't feature in his first chance, although probably still recovering from injury.
