Fifa to clamp down on City and Chelsea business model

[Cobwebcat]

FIFA will impose a new limit from 2020/21 on how many players clubs can have out on loan after a new proposal was ratified.

After Chelsea (39), Manchester City (28) will be the Premier League club most impacted by this. [The Times]



Our loans to go from 28 to just 8 season after next.

They're also cutting us down to 2 points for a win since its unfair on the rest that we get 3.

It's misguided and won't work, we'll just let them move for nominal fees with nominal buybacks.

All this will do is decrease the number of apprentices club will take on. If FIFA had brains they would be dangerous!!!!!

Yep, that's the thing, they've basically warned clubs that having too many players in their academy is a bad thing. How dare they train young footballers?

Surely, we'd just sell players with a low buy back clause

So if this is correct who will suffer most?
Well the clubs can quite easily say ok no problem. We`ll have a small select group of players to try to bring up to premier league standard.The rest will all be shipped out and can find their own way in the footballing world.
You can just imagine the reaction when dozens of young players from all over the world are sent packing back to their own countries. Thrown out of their top schools and left to fend for themselves.
You can imagine all the youngsters throughout the world whose dreams of a great future will be dashed.

What are fifa thinking of? Will UEFA get involved?

More importantly, give them a good education they wouldn't get otherwise.

It wouldn't be so bad if there was a decent competition for them to play in. I've heard Joey Barton say he learned the most from playing in the lower leagues becasue they're more physical and that prepares you for football life in the top leagues better because you're playing against pros who know all the tricks.

If I`m being honest to myself this is a good move,assuming that its likely to be implemated via FIFA.
Lets be honest, because we can afford it,doesn`t mean that its the right way to buy the best for the sake of it.
