Loanwatch 2023/24

[pauliewalnuts]

A few million profit after being here two and a half years and never threatening to be near the first team. Decent business and I doubt we'll be lamenting him leaving. That said, good luck to him for the future.

Indeed, picked him up for nothing, taught him how to play the game for a bit, sent him on loan, made several million pounds out of him.

Not eligible for tomorrow for ’boro.

Plus Plymouth probably paid his wages for the bulk of the two and a half years he was here.

Very happy to see Chrisene get a loan, really really hope he gets the rest of the season injury free as for me he was the actual star of the Youth Cup winning team, Carney etc got all the plaudits but Chrisene was head and shoulders for me.

Not sure left back is where he will finish up, think he will end up in the middle of the park.

Great opportunity now at a really good club

Great to see Villa recalling players because they are wanted on loan at a higher level.  Same Ben Chrisene and for Lemar Bogarde.  Good to see these players being tested at a higher level and Villa doing the right thing by our assets.

Shows what a state the Championship is in, that a club like Plymouth, who presumably would have loved to have kept him, can't afford £2m.

[Matt C]

Think I read Bogarde might be going to Sunderland on loan which would be a good step up.

In fairness Plymouth haven't played at this level in donkeys years so they're always going to be out-muscled financially by almost every other club in that division. It is true though that beyond the parachute money of the former PL clubs, most other ones are treading water. I was actually surprised in the summer that Hull could afford the £5.8m that they paid for Philogene.

All of the Argyle fans that I know are gutted to fuck that they couldn't bring him in.

Every single one of them...

Ben Chrisene to Blackburn is a good level loan. Interesting to see players in their first experience of Championship football. Good luck!

[Percy McCarthy]

Sousa on the bench for Plymouth.

Chrisene started for Blackburn.

Yeah, bad injury. Shame, he was smashing it in that league.
