My cynical side is thinking of it more in terms of now being able to add Acheampong to the academy sales pure profit list ... to balance out the impending huge loss on Mudryk 🙂

Following in Trevs footsteps? At least in theory. Selling him, so far, has not gone the way the owners hoped for.

He and George are now first team players and have their own lockers in the first team locker room.

Will be interesting to see how this works out in both cases, as neither has had any loan experience to date, so this is very raw talent we have here.

Acheampong in particular has only played 122 minutes of senior football, and almost all of it against low level opponents like Barrow and Astana.

Maresca clearly rates him very highly, and we probably have zero untouchable defenders, so it is all to play for, and best of luck to him. Given the injury troubles of James and Fofana, the likely sale of Disasi, and the inconsistency of Gusto, he has a great opportunity to establish himself on the right hand side of our defence.

I'd throw him in the dep end and have him starting games over Disasi in that RB/CB role until Wes is back.

Absolutely. Kid looks a natural for that position whereas Disasi I see more as a traditional centre back. Also Disasi is one of our weakest first team players.

 
There’s a little golden generation coming through Cobham at the moment at CB, LB, RB, and CM/DM.
