Arsenal's Joseph Olowu joins Cork City on loan.
21 year old that i must admit i have never heard of.
Why would Arsenal give a player on loan to a league of Ireland club where the standard except fo a few teams is lower than league 2 in England?

Re: Players on loan
And some striker from burnley has joined st pats on loan, and I think that two reading players have joined Waterford united on loan - it puzzles the shit out of me too Barry

Re: Players on loan
At 21,if he is nowhere near the squad for even league cup matches then he has no future here.
Maybe he is just seeing out the season to get matches before he is released in the summer ?

Re: Players on loan
Reports from Huddersfield are that Smith Rowe has had two decent games.
At least they are starting him unlike Leeds with Eddie. I have no sympathy for them in their recent collapse, they had a striker that could have helped them push away from the pack but instead they relied on Bamford who will never be a goalscorer.
Good idea for a loan thread.

I read that he is a regular on the under 23 team so he must be decent. Cork City would be delighted to take Mustafi and OzilStuartL wrote: ↑Fri Feb 14, 2020 3:05 pmAt 21,if he is nowhere near the squad for even league cup matches then he has no future here.

Seeing as they lost at home tonight, I don't think ozil and mustafi are the right type of characters needed to turn around a losing streak

Re: Players on loan
When a player goes out on loan, they go there not just to play and sometimes remove a small amount from the wages bill, they also have to report back on any up and coming talent, and any new systems : tactics, coaching , systems etc that a club may be using or trying out.

Re: Players on loan
Yup! Much like the manager who stayed 10 years past his sell-by-date.
