The great one tipped Baker to be one for the future, and we either let him sit on the bench or have 10 minutes...

I hope that Chelski don't tell us to eff off in future if we ever need a loanee

Perhaps the loan was set up in anticipation of the takeover becoming protracted and not getting the new permanent signings in. Personally I think we need to get the players on LT contracts getting playing time and gelling. Baker was never going to be ours long term just like Wickham and Barkley. As others have
noted there needs to be a big clear out in the summer and ideally we already have a target list of out of contract replacements identified so we can use preseason to fully prepare for a major onslaught next season.
