Good talk.
Sometimes when you post, log off and then take some time off. Read the posts as a guest without checking username, you will see how dumb what you said is.

He's a GK, whatäs he going to learn stood in between his posts for 90 minutes that he can't learn around better players and coaches who have an damn sight more insight into the game of a modern GK?
Playing is overrated for development.
We've always played 3 games a week. I'll point you in the direction of a certain Rio Ferdinand who said that training was more intense than the games, which made the games seem easy in comparison.
Real life isn't football manager mate, despite many top coaches saying it's important for young players to stay at their clubs and develop you obviously know better it seems. But yeah sure, now Adam has done 12 months at Sunderland he'll be a starter in no time...Sometimes when you post, log off and then take some time off.

You mean that maybe one day he could get a move to United?No white text ?
Apart from fitness I think that even for keepers there's some experience you only can gain in actual competitive matches : being attuned to the pace and back and forth, keeping concentration over a whole game, opposing players possibly challenging you a lot firmer, pressure on set pieces and penalties, being able to communicate with your defense in a packed stadium with a lot more ruckus going around, etc...
And unlike other positions there's generally not a lot of rotation, you won't come off the bench, you get only a handful starts a year even as #2.
There's no doubt to me it is a lot more valuable for him to start in the Jupiler League, which is a good springing board to possibly step up to Eredivisie, Portugal and beyond as a starter than to warm United bench except possibly wage wise.

I don't believe for one second that 95% of the games in the Juliper League are more intense than any of the training he would receive at United. If they are, there's something very wrong with our standards at Carrington.When we were winning titles nearly every year and going deep in UCLs yes.
Also these were the days of less sports science and less recovery for players. If you speak to players and managers of today you'll see there is a big difference.
Especially because there are more matches today, and the games today are of a much higher intensity too
More often than not, players don't get loaned out because there isn't much to be gained from sending a player on loan for years. Look at Garnacho, clearly good enough, showed his ability in house and gets his chance. Some players, like Amad are stuck in this zone where they're too good to be in the reserves (too easy for him) but he isn't good enough to be effective in the first team. What did we learn about his loan? He can do it in the Championship? Great, we knew that already, he was doing it for Atalanta in the CL a few years back. A loan is only good for development if it's more intense than what they were previously getting.No, player only training with no game time will turn out to be Messi and Ronaldo when they hit peak age.
On loan, or at decent club, or at parent club playing time is important for their growth.
Exactly it's not Football manager, you can't just train player for many years and expect them to hit their potential.

Lofty goals I guess but doing a tour of all Europeans B leagues just to get where you should have gone in the first place doesn't sound smart.

So wait, you think Garnacho is getting better because he's playing more? The fact is that he's good enough to play, but you have to play him to see if he can handle the mentality of the games and follow instructions. A match is quite literally applying what you learned in training to a competitive game.Even if you take Garnacho as example, why is he getting mins? He isn't fully grown player, he can just train until he hits his peak and then we can play him. Meanwhile we can sign someone like Adama to play those mins.
Playing time is not needed for player growth, so why is EtH wasting time with Garnacho and planning to waste time with Mainoo. They can stay at Carrington and train till they are 24-25, then we can play them.
Afterall Rio said training was more intense than games.

Yeah well what does Rio know? You seem to know more on the matter so we'll just ask you in the future.

Yeah, we told a 20 year who hasn’t even played 30 games in his senior career that he’s coming in to be our number 2, which is why he rejected the deal.He’s probably been told that he’s coming in as our number 2 though, which is why he’s decided to go elsewhere.
You don't even need to tell him he follows football we just signed an ETH favourite in the same role who would be good for the foreseeable future.Yeah, we told a 20 year who hasn’t even played 30 games in his senior career that he’s coming in to be our number 2, which is why he rejected the deal.
He’s clearly not meant to be the number 2 yet, if he signs for us, he’ll be dumped into the reserves and if he’s lucky we’ll start sending him out on loan in a year or two.You don't even need to tell him he follows football we just signed an ETH favourite in the same role who would be good for the foreseeable future.
We'll be better off with a Romero profile back up for cup games.
Any young player, especially GK should always look for game time. When they are old, they can be #2 at decent-good clubs. Back up GK is one of the least used role for playing time.
I think when you purchase a youngster like this you have to have a plan to integrate the player, one which everyone wins. Say if the idea was to bring him in and then renew De gea and then slowly transition to Suzuki then I think he'll fancy it. But in this scenario were you bought a relatively young goalkeeper who's ETH favourite only a not so smart player comes.He’s clearly not meant to be the number 2 yet, if he signs for us, he’ll be dumped into the reserves and if he’s lucky we’ll start sending him out on loan in a year or two.
Yep. Onana is clearly number 1 and Henderson and Heaton both want out for regular football. Suzuki wants regular football.Yeah, we told a 20 year who hasn’t even played 30 games in his senior career that he’s coming in to be our number 2, which is why he rejected the deal.
The tricky part for us is that keepers who are very good at playing out from the back are still pretty rare, so even the ones in their mid-30's still have plenty of clubs wanting them to be their starting keeper.
We're after signing a relatively young goalkeeper for a large transfer fee who is basically the ideal in terms of the managers philosophy and the manager's famous for not rotating players. Onana might have another decade as first choice keeper. It's a rational choice for him. He only has to look at how Henderson, who was once considered a €50mn keeper has rotted away at United to realise its a bad idea.Yeah it sounds like it, can't help but feel he'll regret that decision in years to come.
Ah, the oracle has spoken. For what he's worth, he's also said the following:We've always played 3 games a week. I'll point you in the direction of a certain Rio Ferdinand who said that training was more intense than the games, which made the games seem easy in comparison.
Man thought he would come in to play first choice so rejected us because of Onana. I guess I admire the confidence in that
