McGuinness potential reasons for starting? 14:12 - May 1 with 946 views | earlsgreenblue | Logic says we play our own for a multitude of reasons, but just maybe his loan requirements are such that a certain number of games does void an expensive trigger? Guessing, so tell me other reasons please. |  | | |  |

McGuinness potential reasons for starting? on 14:15 - May 1 with 896 views | gordon | Phil said ages ago that there were usually contractual agreements regarding the loan players like this, I'm surprised it could be a big enough penalty (given the apparent wealth of the new owners) for it to be an issue to the current owners. I guess if Nsiala and Chambers are both leaving as well then what odds does it make to Cook which one of the three starts with Woolfenden, who presumably isn't leaving? |  | |  |
Phil confirmed that he has already passed any..... on 14:16 - May 1 with 877 views | Bloots | ....stipulated number of games that we had to play him in. There is literally no explanation as to why he's playing. |  |

Think it’s more about keeping Arsenal on side they would be reluctant to send anyone our way if we break the agreements. |  | |  |

I imagine we have our eye on someone who is also represented by McGuiness' agent. |  | |  |

Unless we are going to sign him? Please no ... |  | |  |
McGuinness potential reasons for starting? on 14:23 - May 1 with 785 views | J2BLUE | The most logical explanation is Chambers and Toto are off. Woolf is staying. if McGuiness gets injured he's back at Arsenal anyway. |  |

Yes, this makes sense. Would hope to see Baggott in one of the last two games, at least off the bench. |  | |  |

Apart from being viewed favourably by Arsenal as a destination for players going out on loan. |  |
