    I wish clubs would group together and reject this *.

    Clubs like City are using their capital to hoover up talent then making a profit on loan fees. They have little intention of ever even giving these players a chance.

    If clubs would refuse to pay loan fees and salaries then the players would soon stop joining the likes of City.

    It would genuinely be in the interest of clubs like ours. We'd get the players without having to pay silly money for them.

    If we can't buy him I'd move on. We need guys committed to the club last seasons disaster with loan players shouldn't be repeated.

    * City and their loan fee. Rather we got someone else in or played our own players.

    I'd really prefer if we didn't fund Man Citys horrible football model by paying hefty fees for loan players that have absolutely no chance of ever actually playing for City

    I'd rather just play Welsh than pay to develop another team's player.

    I'd imagine that's why These * are looking for a loan fee as he will probably walk at the end of the season for nothing and not actually played a game for them..

    Just try and sign him for a small fee. That way we secure him as if he does well on loan here, no doubt someone will offer him a better deal..

    We need a centre half
    He looks class and his stats back it up from Holland
    He suit's the way we play
    It's an easy one to make with our obvious city link's
    Don't usually like this but he'd help Furuhashi settle

    Would only need to sign another centre half for us to be fine there for now..

    If we are willing to negotiate on a loan fee then surely we should explore purchase fee?

    I’ve been trying to get my head round this.

    Surely a transfer fee is the only thing that makes sense?

    These practices from city are already a scandal but a loan fee for a player in his final year is surely the worst of all?

    Becoming clear what clubs like City are doing as their business model. Buying up all the talent, most won't make it to their team and they know it but by loaning dozens of players out and charging a fee year on year even your average player is a money spinner they probably also rarely pay most of the wage across the contract. Same happened with Paddy Roberts they kept giving him a new deal even tho they had no intention of playing him but he was prob still making money for them. Same will happen with Arzani. If any do so well they can sell them for good money and the rest they probably make money from in the long run, it's a win, win. They've got guys on their books in their 23/24's who have never and will never play a game for them.

    no chance.

    This guy looks ideal for us and we need another CB. He's out of contract next year.

    If he's in his last year of his contract and they are looking for a loan fee there must be talk of him signing a new deal.

    Imagine us putting big loan fees on all our loans to smaller teams,they simply couldn’t afford it.Clubs like Man City have been ruining the game for too long.Wait until January and get him on a free,* them.

    Maybe the payer wants to be a free agent next year and pick his own club and command a higher wage. He obviously has his sights set high than the wages he would get at Celtic.

    It's this sort of stuff that kills football nowadays clubs like City and Chelsea just hoover up players who will never get near the first time but they seem reluctant to let them leave
