Apologies in advanced if this is covered somewhere else.
Just looking through the 'youth' players there are not many that can still be considered youth (i.e. under 21) which means the 25 man squad this year is going to be at capacity.
My understanding is that Under-21 player is defined as being born on or after January 1, 1990 for this coming season. Only room for 2 more players unless someone leaves.
Provisional 25 man squad:
Shay Given 36
Alan Hutton 27
Stephen Warnock 30
Ron Vlaar 27
Richard Dunne 32
Ciaran Clark 22
Stephen Ireland 25
Karim El Ahmadi 27
Darren Bent 28
Charles N'Zogbia 26
Gabriel Agbonlahor 25
Marc Albrighton 22
Brett Holman 28
Fabian Delph 22
Brad Guzan 27
Barry Bannan 22
Enda Stevens 22
Eric Lichaj 23
Chris Herd 23
Matthew Lowton 23
Jean Makoun 29
Andy Marshall 37
Stan Petrov 33
Total 23
Under 21
Nathan Delfouneso 21
Andreas Weimann 20
Nathan Baker 21
Gary Gardner 20
Daniel Johnson 19
Samir Carruthers 19
Benjamin Siegrist 20

None of the home produced players count, do they.
So about 20 spare spaces!
-
Thought they do just you need at least 8 in the squad?
-
No, he's right I think. You can have home-growns at any age plus 25 others.
Actually though, that doesn't sound right as you have to submit that list and pick from it. Oh, fucked if I know.
Can somebody who knows what they're on about hurry up and post please?
-

spot on....i think.

You've got to have at least 8 English (British) players in the 25 but you can have unlimited home produced players. Even if they are foreign. Such as Weimann and Seigrist.

Who on earth makes a game out of eating footballs?
Apart from Barry Austin.

My understanding :
1) The 25 man squad has to include at least 8 home grown players. Home grown in that they have spent 3 years with an English or Welsh club prior to the age of 21.
2) The nominated (up to) 25 can be added to by any number of players under the age of 21.
3) You are allowed to nominate useless tossers you were stupid enough to pay big money for, but you do so at your own risk.

I realised my mistake as soon as I hit the submit button, but didn't think anyone would be eagle eyed enough to notice - obviously I was wrong haha
-
dont think Makoun and Hutton will be at the club by the end of the transfer window. Hopefully not Warnock either.
-
Surely Petrov wont be in the squad??? - i doubt very much that he will ever play football for Aston Villa again

I see the squad list on the OS has been updated to include Johnny Deux at 17.
