So if we vote to leave the EU then support the inevitable Scottish Independence referendum that will no doubt follow, does that mean that we can rid ourselves of Charlie Adam? Hmmmmm, I might switch my vote......
Changes to the loan system
- Thread starter Citizen Kane
- Start date
Loans to fellow Premier League sides should be scrapped, although it may mean a player on the fringes of the first team will suffer as the need for Prem experience is vital, it does stop some of the bigger sides farming out talent which could actually benefit them over the course of the season, such as a loanee scoring the winner against a title chasing/ top 4/ relegation threatened rival, a loan should only realistically benefit a player in terms of improving their chances to impress their parent club while out on loan, aiding their development both as a player and as a person.
Each team should have a quota as to how many can be farmed out each season both domestically and foreign, so the likes of Chelsea can't snap up all the competition just to then farm them out to Holland or elsewhere. Believe it or not, Marko Marin is STILL a Chelsea player, just on loan somewhere in Turkey - four of five years after joining the club! While the likes of Cuadrado, Piazon, Atsu, Moses, van Ginkel and Djilobadji will likely follow in similar footsteps (though Cuadrado will probably have lots of attention come the summer if Juve don't purchase him outright). Great talent being wasted. I get clubs purchase guys who don't fire on all cylinders straight away and thus get loaned out or are initially signed with the intention of being a first teamer down the line but Chelsea's manipulation of the system is a joke. 95% of the players will likely never feature for their team as a permanent fixture.

I disagree, but I would make it so that a loan to a peer league club ( ***) for one season is the last loan they can do.
After that, the parent club must take a "use them or lose them" approach.
*** And that applies to overseas leagues too.
