Yes, played in the Maddison role today as Jude, Yago and Will (sub) were also in the squad.Is Donley taking steps to becoming more of an attacking midfielder?

How did he do in that role?Yes, played in the Maddison role today as Jude, Yago and Will (sub) were also in the squad.
Keeley, being Irish, might not count as homegrown yet. He can play for the U21s and go out on loan but there's no point him taking up a non-homegrown spot in the squad when he's 4th/5th choice.Notice Gunter is in the official squad released by the club but Keeley is not. Has Luca jumped ahead of him do we think?
Also Devine and Scarlett are listed but White and Parrot are not.
Of course it could just be that our admins are a bit rubbish.
Nationality is irrelevant as to whether a player qualifies as U21 for Premiership purposes. Hence Udogie and Sarr don’t take up places in the 25 man squad. Which is why it is potentially interesting that Gunter has had a squad number announced but Keeley hasn’t.Keeley, being Irish, might not count as homegrown yet.

The rumour was that White and Parrott are surplus and can leave.
If so we might come to regret that. If we qualify for European competition next season we will need four club trained players over the age of 21 in order to be able to register our full complement of non-homegrown players. Currently we have Skipp, Tanganga, Austin, Whiteman, White and Lyons-Foster, with Parrot making the cut next season. I could be wrong but from memory I don’t believe anyone else in the development squad is quite old enough. If I’m right then we will need to hang onto four from that group going into next season, which at the moment is looking problematical.The rumour was that White and Parrott are surplus and can leave.
Surely we should not keep players who are surplus for requirements just to fulfill this European criteria. We may not fill complete register but would rather supplement bench with U21's who we still want to those over 21 that are not.If so we might come to regret that.

Yeah, keeping players just to use the spot, when you can use the spot with someone that doesn't even need to take up a spot does seem a bit mad. White needs a move and to properly start his career at his age, and if Parrot isn't going to make it here then there's no point in him standing in the way of Scarlett, Donley, Soonsup-Bell etc.Surely we should not keep players who are surplus for requirements just to fulfill this European criteria.

Again it just gives you a bloated squad.
Agree that we don’t need players clogging up the squad , which is why I have edited my post, to suggest that with the likes of Tanganga, White and Parrot we should ideally loan this season to see if they can prove their worth.Surely we should not keep players who are surplus for requirements just to fulfill this European criteria.

I think you’re missing the point. They wouldn’t just be filling a homegrown spot, they would be giving us an extra non-homegrown spot. Unless the UEFA rules have changed you can’t have the full complement of non-homegrown players unless you have the full complement of homegrown players.Yeah, keeping players just to use the spot, when you can use the spot with someone that doesn't even need to take up a spot does seem a bit mad.

Was at preston for part of last season. Seems to have left them for probably more money at Stoke.Was curious to see what happened to this lad and as of now he has no club. Training with Stoke though.

I thought he would have been a Premier League quality midfielder by now.
Yes you can. If you only have 7 (for example) meeting the homegrown rules, then your squad size - excluding List B - is reduced to 24. You still have 17 non-homegrown positions available.I think you’re missing the point. They wouldn’t just be filling a homegrown spot, they would be giving us an extra non-homegrown spot.

It seems you’re right! With the rule has changed or I misunderstood it. Well that’s embarrassing.Yes you can. If you only have 7 (for example) meeting the homegrown rules, then your squad size - excluding List B - is reduced to 24. You still have 17 non-homegrown positions available.
If Paratici had hoped Veliz could make a quick impact at Tottenham then the Australian made that clear that would not happen. "It will be a while for him, I think. We've just got to let him settle, he's come halfway around the world," said the Spurs head coach. "He's a young guy, it's a fairly different level. He's one we'll invest in in the long-term but I wouldn't expect him to see any minutes in the first part of the season."
