    I was just looking at the recent rumours in the window and I seen that Manucho looks like he is joining Hull on loan for the rest of the season.

    United play Hull in the very last fixture of the current campaign at which stage it most likely the League will already be decided one way or the other.

    Should these tranfers be allowed?

    I personally don't believe that they should. Basically United are assisting a team to strengthen before they play two of their Premier League rivals namely Arsenal and Chelsea in the next month. There have been strict guidelines regarding loan deals with other Premier League clubs and I personally don't think they should be allowed during the season. I have no problem with them before the season starts. I also have no problem with transfers between different leagues during the season.

    For those United fans who read this, I'm not just talking about United here but all clubs. Chelsea could very well do the same thing or Arseanl, Liverpool or Villa.

    Meh you could look at it as a sinister ploy, but it is a good move for a guy struggling to get into the Utd squad. Makes sense from Utd's point of view, he may come back with bags of confidence - regardless, what have they got to lose?

    they already have...jay simpson to WBA...i think its more to do with him getting premier league experience than anything,

    though him scoring a hat trick v villa would help!!

    If Chelsea, Man Utd or Liverpool gave players (Cudicini for example) to Villa than Arsenal would probably have a legitimate complaint that the other three were trying to **** them over. Manucho to hull is never going to be relevant in the title chase though. He's not that good

    Its not the actual player that I'm talking about. Lets say Everton who are always a tough team to play lost two players before the Liverpool game and suddenly one of the other teams in contention or a couple of them come in and offered a player or two who is not going to figure seriously in their campaign to Everton.

    Should these loans be allowed. I mean you have a chance to seriously affect results without playing yourself. I personally don't like that.

    I know what you are saying but as long as the loans happen during the transfer window then it's OK.

    If they changed the rules to only allow that loans could only be arranged during the close season then that is a different story, albeit during who's off season?

    Very difficult to manage.
