You don't need 8 homegrown players in the 25 :facepalm2:


Yes you do, you complete mess. They can be reserves, kids or Bob from down the docks but you need at least 8 listed in the 25. In reality the only thing that matters is the 17 other slots, but the actual rule is you need those 8.

:no: You can leave those spaces 'open' and it counts as a homegrown space.

Yes, but for each HG space that isn't filled you lose a space for a non-HG player. :facepalm2:

I love how Kev went from £2.5m being nothing, to being the entire extent of your transfer budget which absolutely must be spent, within a single post. Play less FM you complete saucer.


First post was a dig.

And do one, you ****.

Chief executive Richard Scudamore confirmed: "As of next season clubs will be required to have a squad named of up to 25 players, of which no more than 17 can be over the age of 21 and not home grown.

Doesn't specify that the 8 have to be named.

So we are now spending £2.5m to fill up a space that didn't need filling up :lolwut: Seems like a waste of money to me.

Scudamore doesn't have a clue though, he's almost as much of a saucer as Kev. I demand to see the wording of the actual rule.

Go find the actual rule then :dontknow:

You do not need the home rule players, but then you would have less players.

If you had no homegrown players, you could only have a squad of 17, which isn't even a first team plus subs. Under 21s don't have to register though.

That quote is on almost every website talking about the rule tbh. And it is fairly obvious what the implication is.

Damn you.

The Premier League's website
says "From next season, clubs must include eight home-grown players out of a squad of 25.‬‪" but also includes the Scudamore quote. I shall investigate further.

Only the mail, but I have read it elsewhere. Link.

I found a Sun link but that's not allowed in here.

Cavalieri, Aquilani, Agger, Aurelio, Torres, Jovanovic, Kyrgiakos, Maxi, Kuyt, Babel, Mascherano, El Zhar (:ahee:) Lucas, Reina, Poulsen and Skrtel are the foreign players that need registering as far as I can tell. That's 16, 15 if Mascherano leaves. Gerrard, Johnson, Cole, Carragher, Insua(?) and a few youngsters would make up the 8 homegrown players.

As it stands you can sign 1 more foreign player. If you can sell Cav for the same price as you could buy Jones it makes sense just so you can free another space up.

I probably have got something wrong :colondollar:

El Zhar needs to die not be included in any squad :h:
