Huh, seemed like 10 was his preferred number, and it was vacant left by Mata. I think 16 was his birthday though, IDK.

Yup, he's officially listed as 16

Did anyone see his pass to Isco last night (U21)? It was Xabi like. We sure have missed the boat with him. He is on his way to stardom.

Is he not on loan?

yeah, but I don't think he comes back under Mou. I think we have lost him for good.

Unless we play with 3 defenders and 5 midfielders Canales has no room in our team. Sad but true.

Of course there is the bench............

I think you are jumping the gun there.

If Sahin replaces Alonso then maybe:
-----------------Benz----------------------


Neymar-------Canales---------Ronaldo------


-------------------------Ozil---------------

------------Sahin---------------------------

One hell of an attack minded team. Risky but sexy.

Come on guys, imagine in two years time, IF Canales has exploded and developed as a great AM or CM. Preferably, ACM. Alonso would be old and leaving, Kaka would be long gone. We dont know if Ozil will remain consistent, or whether Sahin will take off, or whether Lass/Altintop will stay. Canales would totally be brought back, and would have a place in the team. If then, he still doesnt manage to break through, he will at one point be sold permanently. He is still on loan right now.

I dont think Mou doesnt like Canales. On the other hand, I believe he does. Canales just needs to develop and mature a bit (a lot).

I really like Canales and feel we blew it last year when we took him rather than staying with original idea of leaving him at Racing for another year. Our team is set for next 3 to 4 years with only minor changes each year so I think he is gone for good. About to join the ranks of Mata, Negredo, Solado, Borja Valero etc etc.

i agree but still believing for his comeback ...

Actually he hasn't gone anywhere.
He just had a season with a lack of playing time.

I am sure he will shine with valencia.
