FA Cup Fifth Round draw

[amberman8]

I just said it doesn’t say that. Chelsea own the players, they can recall them tomorrow if they want. This has already been proven as Conte was asked if he intended to.

My understanding of the rule comes from Championship manager. ..if u loaned a player and negotiated with a club..one of the conditions was whether a player could play against parent club. So it must be true lol

Was about to post that. It's now a FIFA or UEFA rule.

Not sure now. Wiki says it's okay.

They can’t play against parent clubs in the PL but can in the FA Cup.

No, that's correct, but it was down to the parent club making the decision. I haven't seen it happen for a few years, so I'm guessing they've opted not to let it happen anymore.

So how do all loan players in Italy play against their parent club?

Because they're taking backhanders.

It’s not February.

It is when the game will be played.

Because they're taking backhanders.

That explains Simone Zaza ripping Juve a new arse then.

Chelsea play Barca on Tuesday 20/2, so maybe just maybe they'll rest Hazard and one or two others. Be only fair since three of our defence ineligible anyway.

I doubt they'll rest Hazard against Barca to play us...

Oh so you’re thinking they’ll recall them on the morning of the game?

Shame we couldn't see Moses up against Moses. Would be fun for the commentator.

An easy one this. Moses would be up against Dave.

I had forgotten that it would be on BBC commentary. Was thinking number 27 vs number 2 or something.

They can’t recall them outside the window.

Are they short of ball boys or summat?

A team notorious for corruption and bribery.

Yes it does.

 

[Chilton's Hundreds]

Adkins has confirmed on Twitter they can't play against Chelsea.

So it looks like 3 at the back. Not because of some genius Adkins tactical masterplan for our wing backs to exploit the space behind the Chelsea wing backs but on account that we will only have 3 defenders available.

At least the glory hunting Premiership fans can have a day out.

As can those that would have attended whoever we were drawn against.

Not sure Hector has the skills required to be a ball boy. Don’t you need to be able to run quickly and control a ball with some accuracy?

Good shout. I really should think these things through.

Wasn't that asked the 'great uninformed' British media? Surely a season long loan can only be cancelled by mutual consent or a breach of contract?

Yes it does.

Right, so you’re saying Juve loaned out Simone Zaza so he would singlehandedly beat them and almost ruin their title defence.

Yes it’s all coming together now.

Get Phelan in. He can beat Premier League Champions with zero options.
