That can't be it as it has none of the new signings after Ron Vlaar

And our under 21s and scholars:
Henry Cowans? Is he related to Sid?

I just posted a list of the 25 man squad here:

Can someone merge the two threads?

Yep that's better

Absolutely - I can't imagine we'd have rushed to sign Benteke and then left him out of our 25-man squad!
-
Benteke is definitely I the squad as tweeted by Mat Kendrick.
-
The OS should be updated by mid December I imagine with the right pictures and numbers. I'm sure we will see all of the new lads in first team action before then.

The OS should be updated by mid December
That's being optimistic -;)

Bright future and all that Pauline

Henry Cowans? Is he related to Sid?
Its his son isn't it? The middle and last names are a bit of a clue.
-
And our under 21s and scholars:
Henry Cowans? Is he related to Sid?
His son, I believe.
-
He's now my favourite player.
-
He must be this years intake - it would be great if he made it to the first team.
-
I want Umit Eminoglu to make it from the kids. Proper exotic footballers name.

Didn't he used to play Sophie off of Home and Away?

No fan pressure of expectation on him then!
-
Never knew Mark Delaney was working for the club on the acadamy coaching side - fair play to him
And the squad cannot be right - stated on radio today that Stan has been given the 20 shirt - that cannot be right either or we have been applauding a minute to early :)

Why has Stan got no 20? I thought 19 was a special number to him.

He hasn't, he's just the 20th name on the list, alphabetically.

Everyone always goes on about how good Arsenal's academy but you look at the existing squad only 7 home grown players!
-
Home grown player total included in 25 man squad ARS 7; AST 17; CHE 8; EVE 7; FUL 10; LIV 10; MANC 7; MANU 12; NEW 10; NOR 18; QPR 15; REA 17; SOU 15; SUN 14; SWA 10; SPURS 12; WBA 11; WH 14; WIG 6
-
Where is Cowans? Can't see him on the squads?
-
he's in the under 21s and Scholars
-
Love that. It's something that needs to happen more. Arsenal only have 7. Though in the FA's rules, the definition of home grown isn't restricted to brit born of course. I do like that we've got a good core of British players, alongside promising foreign players.
-
Incidentally, what's the minimum home grown players that must be included in a Prem squad? Surely more than 7.

Each club has to submit a squad containing no more than 17 players who do not fulfil the "Home Grown Player" (HGP) criteria.

So in effect, it's there so at least one 'Home Grown Player' will be in the squad. What a bizarre rule.

No Carruthers... :( Please don't shoot me down for being insensitive, I'm not and I love Stan as much as the next man, but if there's absolutely no chance of him playing this year (which seems to be the case) then shouldn't we have retired the 19 shirt for this season and included someone like Carruthers or Johnson?

Carruthers and Johnson are under 21 (as of Jan 2012) therefore it doesn't matter he can still play!

Thanks jcv...I'll get me coat!! Same goes for Weimann, Bowery and Baker I guess DOH!!!

So they've got it wrong too! Unless it's me and Gabby will be wearing number 1!!

No not entirely true. It basically means if you want a squad filled with none home grown players your maximum squad size (of over 21 year old players) is 17 for every player you included in your 25 man squad who is a HGP is a bonus player up to 25 players maximum.
In theory however you could have a full match day squad of NONE HGP's because the first 17 players would be your squad players and the 18th player would just have to be under 21 (not necessarily home grown).
-
I'm not entirely sure what the home grown player rule is meant to achieve. It's so unbelievably weak as a rule I can't see how it changes the behaviour of any team and as has been pointed out it doesn't stop a club from selecting a matchday squad made up entirely of non-home grown players.
Does anyone remember why it came about?
-
Have any “name” players been left out at any of the other clubs, Man City for example?
-
Malouda at Chelsea I believe for one.

No, Malouda is out of their Champions League squad and training with the reserves but is named in theor Premier League 25.

Why isn't Sid on the coaching staff official list of http://www.avfc.co.uk/page/FirstTeam ?
-
Doesn't he manage the U21's?

They aren't inlcuded on the site so that may be why he's not there. Don't the U21s merit a squad listing?
-
They are listed on the Premier League site. There's a link to it on this thread somewhere.
