Re: BOJINOV DROPPED NEEDLESSLY FOR JO FROM UEFA SQUAD
It's not just Ball, TBH and Boj missing - no Didi Hamann either in that squad. There are 11 B List players where normally it's 25 A list plus 10 B List. Very odd, 5 keepers too, they could easily have omitted Richard Martin, he hardly even turns out for the ressies recently.

Re: BOJINOV DROPPED NEEDLESSLY FOR JO FROM UEFA SQUAD
I'll be honest, i'm really struggling to get worked up about this, Bojinov has assumed some sort of legendary status after a couple of good pre-season games, 20 mins vs West Ham and a youtube video. If Samaras had gotten injured after his first couple of weeks the same situation could have applied.
He's injured, he probably won't get anywhere near full fitness soon enough to play an important UEFA cup tie, and no one knows whether he's actually going to be any good. Fair does some posters watched him when he was in Italy, but he's barely played since then, no-one knows if he's even going to recover fully.
I guess having him in the squad ahead of a player on loan would make sense, on the off chance, but it hardly warrants the dramatic thread title and the 'i'm raging about this' posts.

Richard Martin counts as one of the association trained players you can have making up the 25, you could not replace him with Boj, Hamman etc as they are not. Bridge is too old to replace him also.

There are enough Association trained players already in the A list, a total of 8 association and club-trained players is the minimum needed and there's no age restriction.
Hart, Bridge, Vassell all qualify as Association trained and Schmeichel, Onuoha, Richards, Johnson, SWP, Ireland, Etuhu as club-trained.

17.11 An “association-trained player†is a player who, between the age of 15 (or the
start of the season during which the player turns 15) and 21 (or the end of
the season during which the player turns 21), and irrespective of his
nationality and age, has been registered with a club or with other clubs
affiliated to the same national association as that of his current club for a
period, continuous or not, of three entire seasons or of 36 months.

Jo's still in there because if we get short on strikers we can recall from Everton

In effect this means that by the deadline on Sunday they were still not sure Jo was leaving and decided that the chance of his staying and playing was a better bet than Boj returning to match fitness. That's it now, we have had our 3 changes and no others can be made other than from the B List of club trainees. See our squad via the following link:

I think this could turn out to be a very bad decision.

Sunderland recalled the ginger hair rag from Hull. McShane was he called. Boj has had 2 serious injurys back to back!

Maybe this shows how far off Boj is to returning.
