Player unhappy at CL squad exclusion despite expecting to go out on loan.

[BuffaloPhil]

I signed a young player on deadline day with the promise to send him out on loan. The next day I named the Champions League squad without him in it, and he's furious. When he talks to me about it, I don't have an option to say "Well, you're going to be going out on loan so it would have been stupid to put you in the squad" or similar, which there really should be as I don't have any way to explain that this is entirely consistent with what he's been promised. Whatever I say to him only exacerbates the situation and looks like it's leading to long-term problems with him which should be entirely unnecessary.

I've uploaded "Man City Matazo issue.fm" which is immediately after the discussion with the player.
