5 EPL players who shouldn't be out on loan

#2 Michy Batshuayi (Chelsea)

Batshuayi in action against Atalanta in the Europa League

The most high-profile case and definitely most shocking, Batshuayi has started his loan move at Borussia Dortmund electrically: he scored twice on his league debut, twice in the Europa League against Atalanta, and already has 5 goals in just 6 games. He's a mere 4 goals away from equaling his total league tally over 2 campaigns in London.

This is not to say that Batshuayi was a failure at Chelsea because, in fairness, he wasn't given nearly enough chances by Conte. He arrived in 2016 after an incredible season with Marseille, where he fired 23 goals in 50 appearances, almost a goal per game. Many likened him to Chelsea icon Didier Drogba for his strength, hold-up play and charisma, so hopes were naturally high but it just hasn't worked out for the Belgian yet.

He's been the reserve striker, whether, behind Diego Costa or Alvaro Morata and, even when the latter was playing poorly, a consistent first-team chance was never presented to Batshuayi. The man signed to replace him as a back-up, Olivier Giroud, has started woefully, in contrast to Dortmund's gain, and the suspicion is that Giroud is far too similar to Morata in style of play: both are slow, aerial presences and neither offer the skill or speed that Batshuayi does. If he continues his current form, the striker will make Conte look very foolishly indeed, and Chelsea fans may be clamouring for his return next season.
