No, as long as the loaning team pays his wages. he's essentially off the book and in some cases, drawing a monthly loan fee. So they are all making profit.

Uefa floats limiting squad sizes and imposing luxury taxes on richest clubs to level the playing field

Something certainly needs doing. This has gotten WELL out of hand.

They tried this in Croatia to stop dinamo who have a monopoly there using another first division team as essentially there second squad by loaning them a ton of players. The day the ban was announced dinamo gave them seven players on free transfers all of whom they can get back for free whenever they want, so it will be hard to enforce as for example Chelsea could just send a bunch of players to Vitesse with a deal where they can take them back when they please

I highly doubt they'd leave themselves as open to such exploitation as that if they brought something like this in like they have with the aforementioned FFP bunkum.
 
Chelsea and City facing potential investigation for tapping up van Dijk. Which presumably would lead to Arsenal as they talked to him. Chelsea being talked about as the same on L'pool for Solanke. Just waiting for Everton to jump in on the act and bring up Chelsea for Lukaku.

People need to get a grip and back to normality.

Seen the Chelsea question being asked but only in one paper, not seen us mentioned though. Source?
 
So thats garbage.. and moving on... We got any fullbacks yet?? ffs
 
It's all garbage as they'll be no investigation.

But if there were, it brings all 4 clubs under scrutiny.

But the garbage needs to stop like it's some sort of shocking new thing.
 
Or its just 'pool and thats how they got ahead in the race.. but nothing will happen.

Taking Tadic just for the lols is funny as **** though

Calling it now:

Final day of the season, Liverpool vs Brighton

Liverpool need to win for either 1st or 4th
Brighton need to win to stay up

It will be a draw and Liverpool with be 2nd/5th and Brighton will go down.

Winning the league at Chelsea, AGAIN, would be perfect the week before.



In other news, Puel has finally been binned from Southampton.

We should run a book on the exact date this summer van Dijk follows him out the door.
 
https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/radical-plan-to-allow-dribbling-from-free-kicks-kbgkm7s6m

One of the most radical shake-ups of the laws of football yet could see a raft of changes introduced including scrapping the rule that the ball must leave the penalty area at goal kicks.

The change would allow defenders to receive goal kicks within the penalty area with the attacking team having to stay outside of the box. Other proposed amendments would see players allowed to take a free kick or corner to themselves without another player having to touch the ball, players being permitted to take a free kick while the ball is moving and goalkeepers conceding a penalty if they handle a back pass.

The proposals are contained in a strategy document produced by the International Football Association Board (Ifab), the game’s law-making body, called “Play Fair” which is aimed at increasing the amount of playing time and improving the behaviour of players and coaches.

Others proposals up for discussion include only allowing the referee to blow for full-time or half-time when the ball is out of play — such a move would avoid incidents such as the infamous decision by the Welsh referee, Clive Thomas, to blow the final whistle in the 1978 World Cup match between Brazil and Sweden just as Zico’s header was on its way into the net for what would have been the winning goal.

A proposal for penalty goals to be awarded for handballs on the line, previously revealed by The Times, is also in the document which has been produced by David Elleray, the former referee and Harrow schoolmaster who is now Ifab’s technical director.p
