Poor old boro. I feel for Gibson
 that feeling is hate

Good luck to him, don't get the animosity towards him at all. Hope he does well!

Boro fans rated him. Just couldn’t get a look in with dinosaur Warnock’s football. 

This I like! First the sledgehammer, then the surgeon's scalpel. Beni at 18 years of age...

Have a good time Jahmal, show us what you can do! Hopefully he does well down there, then we might be able to get him a full season League One loan next season. 

He was raw as anything at first ... and couldn’t head for toffee .. but boy did he grow up and develop with us .. loved him on the pitch and had a first class attitude. You just know when a player loves playing . He did.  

Not really sure being 5'10" can prevent you being a 'beast'. Seem to remember this lad destroying a lot of six and half footers and he's only 5'9" ?‍♀️

 
  

Did he say "good man" and "thanks mate" as well? ?

Rooney has played alongside him and also he is with the same agent as Rooney too.
Decent age, out of favour and 1 year left on his deal come the summer so could potentially lead to a permanent deal.

Good article on him here: https://royalbluemersey.sbnation.com/2020/7/10/21319277/beni-baningime-stock-rises-again-after-90-more-inactive-minutes-everton-southampton-match-recap
Standout quotes:
Most interesting tthough:
Could be short term Bielik replacement if the lad from Ligue 1 doesn't fancy joining

Impossible to judge on clips of the youth team.
No problem bringing in a CB as cover or for the occasional 3 at the back game, but there would be no point upsetting the balance we've got at the minute by bringing someone in as first choice.
I'd rather bring this guy in than Jones, but only as long as there's a chance that if he impresses he comes back  next season.
Wisdom has his weaknesses but he's been key in organising the backline recently, and I think people might finally be starting to see that he's actually pretty damn good on the ball too. I don't really think we're missing out on much of anything with his & Clarke's partnership despite the occasional lapse in concentration or misjudged header.

Everyone says that we
need git men. 
Perhaps we're just toughening up! 

Whilst we need a new CB it is going to be hard to find someone who is good enough for the first team but also happy to join on loan and be back up. We have kept a lot of clean sheets under Rooney including 3 in a row so a centre back isnt going to come straight in and start

Wisdom and Clarke are rightly so the 1st choice pairing at the moment, but there’s plenty of games between now and the end of the season, he’ll get his opportunity through injuries and suspension.
February’s schedule alone is hectic.
He’s also an option if Rooney wishes to revert to a back 3 again, especially if Evans is off. His playing style is very Tomori-like judging by clips online.

Wiz made a number of excellent passes through the lines yesterday. 

How do you attract players, even on loan or as free agents, if the club starts to get a reputation for not paying wages on time? How do you 'sell' the club to them?
Player: ......"Well Wayne, that sounds great. I'd love to come and join Derby. How much am I going to get paid?"
Wayne: "Er, right, well........erm, you see, the thing is, erm........."

With a very young player its sometimes its a case of a balance what is on offer now against what may or may not be on offer later on.
It our current predicament we need funds and the lad does not want to sign a contact with us. 
So the only thing we can do is try to negotiate the best possible deal we can possibly get. 
If a number of clubs want him this becomes a little easier if however he and his family have their heart set on one then we have to go with their wishes.
If we get a good amount up front now and then include add on on for appearances, caps, percentage sell on then all the better.
The lad and his parents should leave on the best of terms with our blessing.
This sends out a wonderful message to other would be talents if they join our club they will be helped to develop their skills, given a route into the 1st team and we will not stand in their way or hinder their future progress.
 

For all those making statements and comments about the likelihood of Kaide playing for Liverpool, well, who's to say he won't be the next Raheem Sterling...
Look at his career, did he make the right decision at the same age to leave QPR?
It's not as if Liverpool don't ever use their academy players if they are good enough, I know there are lots that don't make it but you could say Harry Wilson falls into that bracket.
Good luck to him whatever happens, yes I'd love to see a kid from my kids school play for The Rams, but hey ho

Big week incoming on transfer front, Rooney clearly has players ready wanting to come in, will he be able to get them? I’m not so sure..a lot to sort out in little over a week, first thing first pay the players and see where we are but I think the squad needs a couple of new faces nothing drastic it just needs strengthening enough to keep us away from the bottom 3! Hope Rooney is able to get what he wants or at least 1 or 2 of what he thinks will improve us! He definitely thinks he’ll get the answer this week on where he thinks the club wants to go in the future forwards or not, let’s hope he gets the answers he wants! COYR

Conor Houriane is going to Swansea great signing for them
