Reading boss Steve Coppell has hit out at the big clubs
for monopolising the transfer market.
Coppell is unhappy that the likes of Manchester United and Chelsea
"stockpile" their squads and then loan out players to other
squads.
The top four in England often allow a lot of their young players to
go out on loan to other clubs and Coppell believes the system is
unfair on the smaller clubs.
"They can only put 11 on the pitch. If they lost the loan system
then all these clubs wouldn't stockpile 40-odd players," Coppell
told The Mirror.
"It is ridiculous that clubs can buy 40 or 50 players, loan them
out and get the benefit of that loan.
"For the big boys to monopolise the transfer market so much by
buying so many players is not healthy."
