Of the many, many problems I have with the current loan system - this is the biggest. Being able to loan vast quantities of players (Chelsea certainly) out to take points off your competitors is denigrating the increasingly sketchy fairness of competition.
Man City players are a double-edged sword. At £8m B.Silva should be a ridiculous bargain, but he's competing with D.Silva, Sane, Sterling, KDB, Aguero, Jesus not just for goals and assists,... but minutes!
Tbf, if you're Swansea, £50m is fair. Their squad is pretty thin on quality without him and attracting a quality player to Wales now with all the money flying about in the league in more fashionable areas like London and Manchester is a tough ask. Fair play to them
