Uefa has told clubs they must have four homegrown players in their squad by 2006 to enter European competitions.

what the hell are we going to do?

[XSD]

put mellor, warnock, carragher and welsh in the squad/team
I think it is other clubs, not us, who will have a problem in this area.

[ALONSO_14]

not somethin that i have a remote concern about at this moment in time

[London_Red]

would the young guys were signing from spain count, because if they are going to be here from a young age they could be seen as home grown

[mikopool]

its going up another 2 players or 4 players over the next year so this spanish overtaking of Liverpool, not only makes us look like eliverpool, but could potetially be a nightmare.

[mikopool]

it has to be 4 players brought up through the youth system, then 6 then 8.

[DrLiverpool]

i'd be more worried about getting into european competitions





only jokin

Eh? Do you actually realise how many young English fellows are in the reserves?

[mikopool]

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.

Don't be silly.

[Fernando Morientes > 19 <]

that's why we are going for Peter Crouch rather than Dirk Kuyt

Don't be silly.

he's not being silly, I believe Sinama and La Tallec could possibly be considered homegrown players.

[ckay]

I don't see it being a problem for us.
What about other euro team with no reserve league who just go out and buy brazilians!

We'll be ok.

Does anyone know what the age limit is for a player joining the club to be classed as home grown?

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.
