It's not the matchday squad or the travelling squad for the round that had to be named, it's just everybody that was registered as a player with the club in time to be included.
SB said on saturday that a list of 21 names has been put into uefa. Not that hard to know who really.
The squad we've named is only for the first two qualifying games and it's only got 19 players in it, we can probably guess them, though Figgy isn't one of them.
We still have 23 players to choose from, so two have missed out. We know Figueroa is one, I guess Dudgeon will be the other. McGregor Harper Jakupovic Davies Chester McShane Bruce Rosenior Elmo Huddlestone Livermore Meyler Quinn Boyd Snotarse Ince Brady Long Jelavic Aluko Sagbo Is my guess.
Jelavic will be out of it as well won't he? Didn't Bruce say in HDM that he thought this round would be too early for him and Figgy as they haven't had much of a break due to going to the World Cup?
Wouldn't Conor Townsend qualify as a 'freebie' home-grown player? If he did I wouldn't see any harm in including him in the squad, especially as Figureoa is absent and Robertson (fingers crossed he signs) won't be eligible.
I thought it was four? He did go on loan before last season: 2013-2014 Carlisle United 2012–2013 Chesterfield 2011–2012 Grimsby Town
He is however on the B list (u21s) rather than the A list (limited to 25 players) as he's been here for 2 years and was only 20 at the start of the year. The loans shouldn't count against him, he was still one of our registered players. I think that "uninterrupted" issue is about players being sold then coming back rather than loans.
He won't qualify for either then. And no it's just 3 full seasons at the club by age 21, they don't have to be consecutive but they have to be 3 full seasons nonetheless.
