Indeed. Hehe, entering the January window I had already signed Baleba, when I realized that the transfer is most likely going to happen IRL.

Yeah, well I always wanted to include some of these youngsters and have done so with Lacey and Amass mainly.
If I recall my thoughts from the start of the save, I would have thought I'd included JJ more by now, but he just didn't grow much whilst out on loan.
Maybe +1 or +2 OVR despite a potential above 86. A disappointing growth during the loan spells.

Stuff is happening in real life now. My attraction to this chise was born from a transition following the appointment of Carrick as an interim manager and the changes that would come as a result of that. Somehow the real life stories (e.g. Rashford coming back to perhaps reignite his United career) are more compelling to me right now, and I don't think I'll be able to motivate me to continue this chise anymore. It was a fun experiment though, during a summer with many questions. Now I think I'll consider my next experiment, which may have to wait until the release of FC27. Cheers.
