Yes, though we could do with signing a couple of "association trained" players to boost the CL squad in particular with the likes of Lescott and Barry leaving.pee dubya said:Although happily next season we won't have to include Nastasic, whereas the last 2 seasons we did have to.lancs blue said:That only applies to the PL squad, he would need to be registered in the 25-man A list to be eligible for the CL next season.pee dubya said:So next season starts later this year, any players that turn 21 during this calendar year don't need to be included. So Nastasic and Zuculini won't count until the season after next.

shroom said:Just watched the 2nd half of San Lorenzo vs Racing. BZ played a Javi Garcia-esque def mid role. The only time he made it across the center circle was for offensive set pieces. He played really conservative - mostly sideways passes and layoffs to the off mids - very uninfluential offensively. The eng-lang commentator was disappointed that his play-making ability was blunted by such conservative positioning. He flashed a nice first touch a coupla times, but he also whiffed on a simple trap that led to a gold-plated chance for San Lorenzo a few secs later. He is a natural tackler and drew an undeserved YC on one of his slides. I can't see his impact next season being any greater than prospect-level - certainly won't be a difference-maker. fwiw
wouldn't argue with any of thatsam-caddick said:... very controlled on the ball, good at mopping up and has a good tackle in him, his passing range doesn't look bad but I need to see more of him
