The Aarons one is interesting - the Verona manager, Pecchia, was Benitez's assistant at Newcastle for a bit. Hope he does well, he's got talent but has had two ACLs and other minor injuries. He started the first two games in the championship before he got injured so I think Benitez had plans for him, but it just hasn't happened for him (yet).

really interesting how some of the younger english players are heading abroad on loan, ones that caught the eye are Ademola Lookman to RB Leipzig, Reece Oxford to Borussia Mönchengladbach, Rolando Aarons to Hellas Verona, and Chuba Akpom to Sint-Truidense.
Ademola Lookman especially heading off to Germany was a shock, even though it shows Allardyce's need to win now, and results being the all important thing, rather than player development. Lookman had appeared decent, wonder if he gets another chance when he returns from Germany.
