So Thilo Kehrer has gone on loan to Monaco for the rest of the season. He'll be remembered for coming on for Kurt Zouma in the Europa Conference League final and doing well, and of course for hollering "Irons!" at loud volume during the victory parade. But he seems to have fallen completely out of favour this season, ranking behind Zouma, Aguerd, Mavropanos and Ogbonna for the centre back spots and behind Coufal and Johnson for the right-back berth.
Thilo made quite a few mistakes after arriving at the end of the summer window for £10m last season, but did improve, though he suffered from the management never being quite sure if he was a centre back or right-back. As a German international he clearly wanted first-team football, but with WHU's squad so stretched he might actually have got some game time in January. Has the club given up on him too quickly? Good luck at Monaco, Thilo.
