Guest firetotheworks Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 I'm not sure that that's necessarily true in this case considering you can easily argue that more than anyone else, it's Chelsea that aren't benefiting from loaning him out.

LRD Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 The likes of Wilshere, Walker, Lukaku, Sturridge have benefited from stints at PL clubs so it can be used to accelerate a player's development. We have only ourselves to blame if we don't make use of the system. Do agree the on-loan player should be allowed to play against his parent club though. Besides, Chelsea will continue to stockpile players whether they can loan them out to a PL club. Most of their loanees are in other leagues fwiw (La Liga, Serie A, Eredivisie).

AyeDubbleYoo Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 I wasn't even thinking about us, yes it's our fault we don't use the system as much as some other clubs. But I still don't think the system should exist. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Village Idiot Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Just realized that in 10 games both Alexis and Pedro have already matched their scoring records from last season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, but that's specific to the fact they've made a mistake in this individual instance. You referred to this instance specifically...Lukaku is a very good player, he wants to play every game, Chelsea couldn't guarantee that but want to keep him, so they've loaned him out. I can see it from both points of view, but if the system is to continue then we should be utilising it more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Just realized that in 10 games both Alexis and Pedro have already matched their scoring records from last season. The thing that has impressed me most about you this season is that it seems more of a team effort to score goals and less dependence on Messi. Something that will only help you come the latter stages of CL IMO as it would make you less predictable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see it from both points of view, but if the system is to continue then we should be utilising it more. How can Chelsea not be benefitting from loaning him out? He's taken 2 points off second place in the league this week and will take more later in the season I've no doubt. Whereas he can't play against Chelsea, so basically Everton will play everybody but Chelsea with their biggest threat available. Of course the big problem in this argument is that Everton beat Chelsea without him, which is a bit of a pisser for this argument. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chelsea are not benefitting because he's better than all of their strikers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
