Good loan.
We need another CB - maybe two. Ng likely to be playing RB (and getting the nod over Romeo based on pre-season so far). Benjamin has looked very unsure of himself in the pre-season games - and probably needs a loan out. That leaves three - and one of those is Simpson, who to be fair has looked OK this summer, but makes me very nervous.
The other option is to carry on with the Eli King as CB experiment. He has done OK in the friendlies - but a league campaign is a different thing. I would be happy for him to stay as part of the squad (rather than another loan) but he is surely a No 6 - Wintle's understudy?
LOVE this loan.
Hope he gets some valuable game time and comes back pushing for a first team spot.

Seems a good loan, he needs games.
Yes, I am a fan of Eli King. I think he and Rubin Colwill ought to get more match and in-match-game-time this season. Full games in training doesn't really prepare them for the rigours of a full competitive match, so as with phasing in all youngsters, gradually increasing their matches season by season, and the amount of time per match gradually, should increase their experience without creating physical burnout.
Hopefully Bulut and the Physio will know that. I like King, and I think he may be the guy to challenge / rotate with Joe Ralls and Wintle for that CDM role.
