from UEFA

Places reserved
Under the proposals, the 'A' list that teams submit for UEFA club competitions would continue to be limited to 25 players, and from season 2006/07, at least two places on this list would be reserved for players trained by a club's own academy with a further two places for players trained by other clubs from within the same member association. The 'B' list will also continue to exist, involving an unlimited number of Under-21 players who have been at the club for two seasons.

Target for 2008/09
In the following two seasons, one additional place for a club-trained player and one additional place for an association-trained player would be reserved on the 'A' list, so that by the 2008/09 campaign, each club would have in its 25-man squad four club-trained and four association-trained players.

Cheers for that!!!!!!

players we have to use, are we going to beat juventus and milan and chelsea with the talent we have so far? don't get me wrong, we have plenty of class coming up, but the loss of another superstar out of the ranks is another kick in the balls, I simply can't see a way of us succeeding with the youth system we have currently, then again, every other top club probably have to ask what you mean when you ask about their youth system.

The teams you mentioned tend to buy theirs and not develop them. Just think about Arsenal & Manure. What fun!
