Corluka, Kaboul, woodgate, king, dawson, bassong, BAE, Bale

Lennon, Bentley, sandro, hudd, palacios, modric, kranjcar, jenas, townsend, Cole(assuming)

Defoe, Pav., Crouch, Gudjohnson(assuming)

Wa bout chu?

 

[Blockbuster]

isn't the rule only for over 21's?

So Bale & Sandro wouldn't need to be included?

(Yes I'm getting my info from FM2010 2nd season ;-) )

Probably should have looked into that before i posted...

Neither would townsend then, hmmmm....

 

[michaelden]

Gomes, Cudicini, Pletiska (sp - that polish chap, buy)
King, Daws, Bassong, Kaboul, Caulker
Corluka, Naughton, BAE, Bale
Palacious, Sandro, Hudd, Bostock, Livermore, Parrett
Lennon, Dos Santos, Modric, Krankjar, Bentley, Rose, Taarabt
Pav, Defoe, Gudjohnson (buy), Crouch, Townsend

Those in bold are exempt I think.

 

[mil1lion]

Gomes, Cudicini
Corluka, King, Dawson, Woodgate? (if not Richards), Bassong, Kaboul, Ekotto
Lennon, Bentley, Huddlestone, Modric, Palacios, Jenas, Kranjcar, Giovani, Cole?
Defoe, Crouch, Gudjohnsen?, Forlan?

+ Bale, Sandro and a young British keeper as # 3

 

[blanchflower007]

Gomes, Cudicini, YOUNG BRITTISH KEEPER
Corluka, King, Dawson, Woodgate, Bassong, RICHARDS, Kaboul, Ekotto, Bale
Lennon, Bentley, Huddlestone, Modric, Palacios, Kranjcar, Giovani, COLE, Sandro
Defoe, Crouch, SUAREZ, FORLAN

I would send Bostock, Parrett, Mason etc out on loan to as higher club as poss where they will get some first team action to get some experience. In caps and bold are the players i'd like to bring in, in bold only are the players who do not count towards the 25 man squad due to age. That's a 23 man squad excluding Bale and Sandro as the do not count.

 

[midoNdefoe]

Forgot Giovani, think he could be quality if he gets his head down. Though that seems to be a tough ask for him with his seemingly bad attitude.

Who was the young keeper we were chasing....Loach was it? Is this the one people are hoping for in the *YOUNG BRITISH KEEPER* mould?

Que?

 

[Scutch]

The main things to consider are :

Under 21's are exempt from choice, and don't need to be given a squad number within the 25.

Clubs must include at least 8 home grown players from the squad of 25.

A home-grown player will be defined as one who, irrespective of his nationality or age, has been registered with any club affiliated to the Football Association or the Football Association of Wales for a period, continuous or not, of three entire seasons or 36 months prior to his 21st birthday (or the end of the Season during which he turns 21).

 

[mil1lion]

Que?

He wants 3 teams. 1 for the League, 1 for domestic cups and 1 for Champions League. Each with their own sponsor.

That's what i thought.. Just checking. same manager for all three or....?

 

[mil1lion]

I would have Harry for the League, Jordan for the domestic cups and Bond for the Champions League.
