correct, the 25man is maximum and the real rule is not a minimum of 8 hg but actually a maximum of 17 non homegrown players

I could in theory buy 17 world class foreigners and register them, zero hg and comply with the rules.
 
With that being tongue in cheek, I can seriously see us going for a Dempsey or someone to help build the market over here. Summer tour, fresh new signing Dempsey to lead the headlines of Liverpool's tour, the new TV program, etc. I like Dempsey and think he can help and has a fighters attitude of hating to lose, wants to be there, etc.

But at the same time I don't want to lose out to a Ramirez or Jovetic to land Dempsey. But I can see it.

Also on that note, Jovetic should have been bought years ago under Rafa but instead we got Aqua, ****.

It's a shame that at the end of the day our issues with Aqua were off-field rather than on-field, I still think he is a good player, he's put his injuries behind him and he would do a good job for us. Shame that he is an ungrateful so and so and is pushing us to release him from his contract

Let's say we get Ramirez and Aqua stayed. You could have

Lucas---Aqua/Gerrard

---Ramirez/Gerrard-----

That would be pretty formidable I think and would be much stronger than what we had last year.

Massive massive blow to Bilbao. Think we can trade Rodgers for him? :) only kidding..... sort of.

Anyway, that just might be Munian, Llorente, De Marcos, Susaeta, and Herrara all looking around. Would take any of those in a heartbeat, especially herrera and Munian, I don't think we can get llorente.

I'd imagine that Liverpool, along with other clubs are at the very least scouting these players.
 
Gerrez Carrard OR Suarrol said:
Just a thought, we still need to have a minimum of eight home grown players within our twenty-five man squad. Looking at the squad, I work it that we currently nine - Johnson, Carragher, Gerrard, Henderson, Spearing, Downing, Cole, Bellamy and Carroll. Under 21's don't have to be registered, Henderson is now 22 and so does need to be <ok>

So, to the people saying they'd like to see Spearing, Downing and Cole leave, who would you like to see come in that qualifies as home grown if all three left?

I'm assuming that people would keep Carragher in the registered squad despite his recent obvious downturn in form / quality.

You don't need 8 homegrown players in the squad.
 
suso will be homegorwn but only needs to be registered in about 4 years time! I hope we are going to register him in that time and he's a "wunderkind"

god knows for lfc to propser sterling and suso have to play left and right and be the worlds best young players for WC2014

You dont have to register a full 25 or you can just register a player which is u21

Correct you don't have to register 25, but it is the eight 'home grown' bit that is the problem. Also correct that you can name an under 21, IF they have been trained by an English or Welsh club for at least three years AFTER their sixteenth birthday <ok>

Incorrect. It is a minimum of eight home grown players with a maximum of twenty-five players over the age of twenty-one.

You can play as many players under twenty-one as you like <ok>

Just thinking, if Suso makes it, by the required age, he'll be 'homegrown', won't he? Practically in Spain, Liverpool.

Correct, as would Sterling but neither need to be registered because of their age but could be if it helps meet the eight requirement <ok>
