QUOTE (kurtsimonw @ May 30 2008, 06:58 PM) I think it's home grown - so the likes of Fabregas would be considered 'English' enough to play. The only thing that's annoying me about the whole thing is that it all seems to have come about during Englands dominance of Europe. How come there was no talk of this from UEFA with the all Spanish and all Italian finals? Typical! In my opinion, this doesn't need to be introduced into the first team. Take on the problem at it's source - youth football. If no foreigners are allowed in youth teams it will help development, and it will also stop teams stealing youngsters from other countries. Ironically this comes after England fail to qualify for Euro 2008... There are too many foreigners in the prem, giving younger English players a chance will benefit England in future years.

I still don't see a problem right now. This is just more Blatter bs! I don't like seeing teams field only foreigners but how can anyone say this is a problem? If that's what a club wants to do then they should be able to do it in my opinion.
Also, I couldn't care less about what will happen to Arsenal or United. Do you guys realize Milan is in big trouble if this stupid thing is applied? NOT A SINGLE ONE OF OUR CURRENT STARTERS WILL BE STARTERS IN 2012 WHEN THIS IS PLANNED TO GO THROUGH!!!

^ Except maybe Pirlo, right? With 34, team captain,...
Nah, 5 years to go, Milan will do what is neccesary. We'll just buy some younger italian players and I also belive Paloschi will be there plus at least some of the other primaveras/young players.

Of course we'll do what it takes but I'm just pointing out that we're not assured...

QUOTE (morgoth @ Jun 1 2008, 03:02 PM) Again, it's not about home grown players but about national players, as far as I'm concerned Fabregas isn't eligible to play for England, so that rules him out ... "If ultimately passed, the rule would see all clubs forced to field at least six homegrown players per match, in an attempt to encourage the development of local talent in countries flooded by imports." It is homegrown. So Faregas WOULD be considered 'English' in a sense. I think it means players between the ages of 15 and 21 need to play at least 3 years of their football in a certain country in order to be considered homegrown by that country. It will just cause teams to steal youngsters from one another on an even more regular basis. (IMG: http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

Well the reverse would also work out kurt. Teams would be less eager to let any of their youngsters with potential go out easy. For eg. Barca would probably just make a better offer than what Arsenal did to keep Cesc in.
