Is there any truth in the rumours that benefica want to take manquillo on loan?
And eds, do you rate him personally?

Thanks in advance.

{Ed001's Note - there have been a few clubs interested in taking him, not sure if Benfica are one though. Personally I do not rate him, he is big, strong and quick, technically good on the ball, but he has no positional sense, his crossing is poor, he gets caught wrong side of his man constantly, lacks concentration which means he just wanders around not thinking about what is going on around him and lacks any kind of defensive anticipation, which is why he is always chasing back wrong side and never actually getting near. While the modern full back tends to be more about attack, usually they at least anticipate the need to get back when the ball is lost, so they are already moving when the ball goes into their defensive area. Manquillo is usually caught out by it and so loses time reacting and breaking into a run which costs the team badly.}

Can Liverpool loan him out and then still sign him if he turns out better? Or can you not loan a loanee?

{Ed002's Note - With the agreement of his club, yes.}

Kind of like Moreno for most of the season IMO.
