If clubs are stopped from stockpiling players this wouldn't be a problem.
Maybe the players being allowed to play against everyone is a way to do it.......

I have no doubt that when Jose Mourinho lent us Lukaku, he knew it would damage the clubs in the title chase. Makes sense really, you've got a great player but he's not going to be in your team for what ever reason, you lend him to some one who's going to take points off those around you whilst he develops and show cases himself for a higher sell on value.
However, with Barry I think this would be to off set his wages and give him a chance of first team football, which he wouldn't get at City. With Deulofeu, it's because he needs competitive first team football to continue developing, much the same as we send out youngsters on loan.
I think Wenger just knew JM plan when he lent Lukaku out and wants a whinge about it.
Also....HE'S SCARED OFF US!!

Genius Reidy, looking forward to a rendition of this in the family enclosure later.

Wenger, tbf, allowed Jeffers to play for us against Arsenal while on loan. Mind you , was gash then
They tried getting Ba on loan ffs
Not from a title rival though.Don't they have that Swedish bloke on loan?
