Manor Solomon

Pointless signing, feels like we only got him because he was available on a free. Not an awful player but was never going to get regular gametime.

Of course. Get him free. Pay him £1m wages. Sell him for £4m. It was pure financial

Ended up being pointless because he was injured almost all of the season.

A year later and we've been able to add other players that makes him less useful to us so we loan him out not getting any suitable bids to sell him.

You'd have got slated for saying this at the time with people saying you've judged it too soon and to give him time, but it has been exactly what it looked like it would be.

Added with the rumblings from Shaktar's chairman, the deal doesn't paint the club in a good light and it's not like we've even benefited from it. The saving grace is that it's not been a huge misplacement of funds a la GLC / Tanguy but still seems super odd - If Ivan had been fit Manor wouldn't have ever seen game time.
 
He should get some game time I'd imagine. Hopefully he can get through a tough season without getting injured.
 
If he doesn’t regularly start and isn’t one of the best players in the championship then he was never good enough for us.
 
We should get him back*. Particularly in view of our current circumstances. He is really shining at Leeds!

* This will go down like a lead balloon in our house ;)
