FIFA and UEFA have never done anything for the benefit of English clubs, the FA should do what's best for our clubs and stopping players leaving or coming in once the season has started would be a good start, in my opinion. I agree, that's why I said the other leagues would have to follow with the same dates, just can't see Fifa/Uefa doing anything, don't they take a percentage cut of all transfers? .............

What other leagues do is up to them, this is a suggestion to help English clubs. I don't believe FIFA or UEFA have anything to do with the Premiership or domestic English football, so their input to something like this isn't relevant.

All the country FA's follow the Fifa Rules/Laws/Governance, so they/we have to follow them.

Why not? The FA need to protect the English game.
I think the window is for registering players into a particular league, not sure you can do it differently as you cannot control what happens in other leagues. If that is not the case then the US league will only buy players from england who don't have a contract. I don't even think football associations get into buying and salling, it's more about a deadline to register a player.

As I said, I agree, but do we see it happening? For me its close all transfer windows globally before the season starts, or just scrap the transfer window and have it how it used to be in the 80's when there were no restrictions, which stops the panic deadline day buys and stockpiling of footballers 'just in case'. Look at Johnny Evans, City are buying him 'just incase' Kompany breaks down again, he aint a first team player for City. Now if Kompany breaks down in October, Man City cannot replace him, without a transfer window they could go buy Evans if they paid enough, but would also mean if Komapany plays the season, Evans isn't required to sit on the bench at City and WBA keep their player.

I would also restrict how many players a club can register (not just for PL), so they cannot stockpile players and send the on loan every year, the likes of Chelsea & Man City do.

The simple and easiest thing to do is mandatory release clauses. Then its up to the club and player to set what that should be.
Maybe there should be a clause to increase it for some type of inflation linked to transfer prices (what that would be I'm not sure, but could be something to look into as I imagine we'd have put something like a 60m release clause in Coutinhos and due to price inflation that's massively lower than his 'value'
I don't agree with the comments suggesting the clause should half based on appearances. In that case all a player had to do is cause trouble to get himself dropped to try and reduce his clause.
Maybe state no transfers are allowed in the first 2 years of a contract, but that would probably have to be enforced by FIFA

The clause Neymar had worked, it was a huge fee to release him, as agreed in his contract, PSG were willing to pay it, so it released him, if Coutinho had a £200 million release clause, Barca would have to pay that, no bids/haggling/de-stabilising the player, if they want him, they pay it.

I don't think there is any need for no transfers over 2 years as if both the player and the club want to move on, they should be allowed.
