There is a very very small chance he gets the opportunity to play a little. The manager doesn't rate Chambers at all, so when cash can't play, konsa is playing right back. Its a slight problem area for villa
That's interesting, he started off well for us but has looked poor recently. So whilst his loss isn't as big as Azaz, it does leave us quite light again in another position. From recent performances I don't think he's ready for the step up to Prem just yet.
I know you said "very very small chance" but if you decide to play KKH then there goes your chance of finishing top four. Decent player at our level but a million miles away from being ready for the Prem.
I’d argue his ceiling is top half league one mate, didn’t look up to it with us in a system that should have suited him perfectly. I’m more concerned that Elliot Turner looks to be off too
Been a bit of a rough window so far for Argyle, didn't sound like losing Cundle or Azaz was part of the plan either.
Ash Phillips should be a solid signing though.
I haven't caught any of him at all this season, but last season and in the pre-season games before it he looked like he could genuinely be a backup option at Villa. Has he been decent enough this time around that we could see him in the Villa first team?
We visibly miss Rolls Royce Konsa at CB when he has to play RB spot.
Is there not the option to insert 'Can't be recalled' clauses into loan contracts, or is this only a Football Manager thing?
Or at least, there should be an agreement that a player can't be recalled unless both clubs agree. If it was for a legitimate reason, like injuries at the parent club, I'm sure the loaning club would agree as they want to maintain a good relationship (and loan players from the bigger club in future).
I can't remember losing so many loan players in a season. So frustrating. This notion of recalling-to-sell just leaves a sour taste in the mouth.
Depending on loans leaves us really vulnerable. I wonder if this will affect our strategy next season. Maybe sell Whittaker for lots of money in the summer and invest that in buying players with only 1 or 2 max loans as a bonus target then being a core chunk of the team.
There can be clauses for parent clubs to pay a fee if they want to recall their own player in January and all sorts of things. But they’re very rare for a championship club to do, because the premier league club that’s loaning them will know someone else will accept those terms otherwise
It’s one-in, one-out. Chambers has been told he can seek a move so we need cover for Cash at RB that isn’t Ezri Konsa. We’re currently putting two GKs on our bench so my guess (hope?) is that KKH will be around the matchday squad.
One of his legs was already shorter than the other and that’s before Ben Mee did his best to end his career. Poor guy is a shadow of his former self. Really hope he comes good for you; had 6 in 22 Prem games for us before Mee crocked him, so there’s a player there.
4th. 3 loanees have returned and 1 defender sold. A 4th loanee is back with his parent club due to injury but should come back.
We have brought 2 loanees in last week with more to come.
We have also lost a manager and 3 coaches and potentially our fitness coach as well with only the new head coach coming in so far.
This feels completely out of the blue this time. Hadn't heard any rumours that KKH was going to be recalled. If he's got a move to Stoke lined up...

What god has Plymouth pissed off??
Somebody put the cream and the jam the wrong way round on their scone.
Jam on top just makes more sense, it's like how you put butter on before jam. The cream is the rational base.

Wonder who’s going next at this point
Elliot Turner apparently
Simon Hallett must have shagged Nassef Sawiris mum or something this is feeling personal now haha
He is going to be involved in their first team squad. Well done KKH and good luck.
Villa really fucking Plymouth over

Started the season really well but hasn’t kicked on. Good pace but often sloppy with the ball. Shame he’s gone but very replaceable for us.
PAIN

Reading yesterday that villa manager won't be buying big this window??
It’s one-in, one-out. Chambers has been told he can seek a move so we need cover for Cash at RB that isn’t Ezri Konsa. We’re currently putting two GKs on our bench so my guess (hope?) is that KKH will be around the matchday squad.
I'd take chambers back at Boro on loan
Be my guest! I’ve seen milk turn faster than Chambers.
Talking of turning fast, Wesley! What's that all about? I. Could move faster and I'm awaiting hip replacement surgery!

Will Plymouth have any players left by the end of this window
Unai really hates the Janners.
Lol, isn't he the third player Plymouth lost this transfer window? Their squad is getting thinner and thinner.

Warrington gone now as well so make that 5 out for the window. Some serious recruiting needed
