*Aluko, Sone Ben Arfa, Hatem *Brady, Robert *Bruce, Alex Stephen *Chester, James Grant *Davies, Curtis *Dawson, Michael Richard Diame, Mohamed Eissa, Ahmed Elmehamady Abdelfattah Aly Figueroa Rochez, Maynor Alexis *Harper, Stephen Alan Hernandez Platero, Abel Mathias *Huddlestone, Thomas Andrew *Ince, Thomas Jakupovic, Eldin Jelavic, Nikica *Livermore, Jake Cyril McGregor, Allan James *McShane, Paul David Meyler, David *Quinn, Stephen Ramirez Pereyra, Gaston Exequiel *Rosenior, Liam James Sagbo Latte, Yannick Anister Snodgrass, Robert Robertson and Maguire in the U21 section
Max Clark, Cracknell (goalkeeper option if Harps leaves to be Carlisle manager), Jahraldo-Martin (wrongly spelt first name on PL site?), Lenihan, Maguire, Robertson, Rossi (the one we got from Stoke), Ter Horst, and Townsend (if we were to get him back in January) the most notable names on the U21 list we've submitted. And Elmohamady isn't even his name according to the list, it's Elmehamady.
Apparently the proper translation of Elmo's name would be Al-Muhamadi (from memory, if that's wrong it's very similar). Strange.
Arabic has no direct correspondence to English, so they spell it phonetically. Hence, Zaki and Zaky if I remember right.
Surely though the clubs should be filling the registration forms in with the same spellings they put on the back of their shirts?
Brady joined Man U just after his 16th birthday so got the 3 years training in England before his 21st. Meyler moved to Sunderland from Ireland in 2010, he was born in 1989 so he was either 20 or 21 at the time and didn't therefore get 3 years training over here before his 21st birthday.
