So does this mean George was right or wrong to sign the player ? I am sure George believes he will enhance the squad, or there is little point a season long loan. We’ve only got him until the end of this calendar year, not the season.

Always depends on the terms of the loan. Could he be called back earlier ? Could the loan spell be extended ?

Interesting interview with him on STV.
All my 'research' into Canadian footy was a waste of time, he's spent at least half his life, and most of his career, over here! He's been on loan all over the place - we're probably one of the 'lowest' clubs he's played for.
Looks like George could have made a shrewed signing.

But Luque was written off before a ball was kicked. Thats the point. He wasn’t written off. It was just that some of us understood.

Yes, I agree. Giving a new player a chance to prove his ability sounds like a great idea.

From the SL commentary, it sounded like he made quite an impact.

Not possible jdl. Must be fake news. Those supporters who know better have written the guy off as a waste of space.

We all know that the only reason Luque wasn't given a new contract was because of serious doubts about his fitness. The club had just paid his wages for a season without seeing a ball kicked. If Luque realy does the business throughout this season, then great for himself and Worthing. Then somebody can say with justification that the club was over cautious or something. But to make that claim now when we are in the first week in September, well that's just sounds nuts. So far he has managed 2 goals and nil assists in 7 matches. Fair enough but not sensational. In the meantime I wish the Spanish Wizard all the best and hope he has a terrific season. I think it’s more to do with him only being a sub for most of the games, and he's scored more than De Graft, Sole, Reynolds, Aransibia, Obi , Kelly and Corne. And all those players probably have more game time than Luque. Nobody is sadder than me that Luque’s not setting the world alight at Worthing. But we’ve got a new squad who will make new memories. Time to let go of the past and move on to the new era.
