Do you think that the DOBs are incorrect? Or is this confusion just caused by the difference between International year group cut-off at 1st January, and school cut-off at 1st September?
Not so sure thats right. I picked up the following definition some time ago - which I hope is relevant:
‘Club Trained Player’ means a Player who, between the age of 15 (or the start of the season during which he turns 15) and 21 (or the end of the season during which he turns 21), and...
That's going a bit too far. If we bring them in during the Summer break at 18, the first two years are a problem for Europe. But year 3 is fine (U21 for domestic and Europe). And by year 4 they are CT/HG. I assume that is the route we will take with Bergvall, Vuskovic - and would also apply to...
Fair enough - sounds as though we are nervous. Everyone knows about him, so we are bound to have to take part in a beauty parade. We must have been planning for this for years. As with Mikey.
I agree with you concerning Mikey Moore. Looks like an inside-forward (in old terms), so will probably become a number 10 in time. Alfie Devine could also settle into mid-field as either an 8 or 10. And then there is Jamie Donley...... Three very different players, all highly talented, who may...
If Phillips goes out on loan at any time in the next three years, he will not qualify as Club Trained (he is already HG of course). Similarly Will Lankshear can only take one year on loan. I'm hoping that the club don't use this point to hold them back from loans - Phillips looks good, but raw...
I agree that moving 8 out should be doable - maybe Gil in place of Gio. But we are already 3 over the limit, so with Orban added, we have only two slots remaining for this Summer and next. One of which appears to be earmarked for the next new CB. I'm not suggesting that this isn't the right...
He is the same 'vintage' as Sarr and Udogie i.e. no need to register this year, but we would then have three extra non-UK players to register in 24/25. So a second major exodus of current non-UK players required next Summer.
As Troy has a contract to 2025, the club may be tempted to roll the dice one more time. Harvey, I think, has only one year left; so a sale feels inevitable.
Yes you can. If you only have 7 (for example) meeting the homegrown rules, then your squad size - excluding List B - is reduced to 24. You still have 17 non-homegrown positions available.
