Heard a few things lately that some managers want an ending to the loan system which.i.think would be daft.

A question i know rafa was a fan of is the set up in spain with there b teams in tje lower leagues? would anyone think its a.good idea. and what yous think of the loan system at present

I think the B team system would be a good idea. However, it would have to be implemented carefully. For example, how would relegation work?

Not sure how.they do it.in.spain. they cant get promoted i know that.

the can if the main team gets relegated . both the teams cant play in the same league

I think Fifa or Uefa or some high powered delegation has made it so players over/below a certain age won't be allowed to go on loan after a certain year in the future.

I'm guessing but I think I read players over the age of 21 won't be allowed to be loaned in the future, or it could be players under the age of 21 won't be allowed to go on loan I can't remember which but I'm sure Fifa or whoever it is are planning to do it soon in a few years time.

I am in favour of a B team system if loans get scrapped. I don't know much about the rules used in spain but I know for sure that each team starts in non league and has to progress like a normal team. If Barcelona are in la liga, Barcelona B cannot get promoted even if they won the sagunda which I think they have recently. If Barcelona get relegated then so does the B team because they cannot be in the same league. It is a good system and I really hope they implement it soon because t can give youngsters a lot more experience fighting with pros. I think AVB has also mentioned this recently.

can someone explain to me why the loan system is bad?

I think the reason is loan players cant play against there team. It could benifit teams like city who could loan 5 players out to prem teams which could help them win the title as these players can play against there rivals but not them.

I'm strongly opposed to loan signings, especially long term ones. When I was growing up you'd sometimes hear about players going on loan for a few weeks, possibly even a month or 2 to cover at small clubs when they had injuries. I can't understand the need for a rule to allow big clubs to lend/borrow players for up to a season at a time.
And whilst we're at it, how about getting rid of the pointless transfer windows?!

One final thing, 'shielding' the ball out of play - when did that officially stop becoming blatant obstruction? gets on my t!ts I tell thee.

That was always the way years ago. Season-long loans were pretty much unheard of, and even then, any loans were for young players or players who weren't at all in the plans of their club. Top players were NEVER loaned out. Then a few years ago this seemed to become the done thing overnight. I'd gladly see new rules brought in stopping players within a certain age bracket being loaned.




Another thing I'd gladly see scrapped. The transfer window hasn't always been in, has it? Did you not used to be able to sign players pretty much all season, or at least between June and March or something like that??




I'm not gonna complain about this for the reason that Jose Enrique is excellent at it
