Conference League squad has been confirmed.

[DANGERCLOSE]

Should have f***ed mateta off and put uche in.

 

[Pierre]

That maybe the voice of sentiment at present. But it's not the voice of sound financial judgement.

 

[crvenaeagle]

Don't we get 25?

 

[Team of the (20)80s]

Should have f***ed mateta off and put uche in.

It is harsh for Uche, I guess this suggests Mateta won’t have the operation as, if he does and is out for games, then he is a wasted squad member where (given Nketiah’s injury record)

 

[crvenaeagle]

Either Uche is another player Glans-ner has it in for or he's been instructed to leave him out of the squad.

Uche has the best goals-per-minute ratio for us in the Conference League.

Unlike the rest of the team, I at least feel like he’s got a goal in him when he’s on the pitch in any game

 

[Phil’s Barber]

The clearest indication yet that we won’t be turning the loan into a permanent deal.

 

[Stirlingsays]

Yep, it seems like Uche will be going back.

Glasner seems to have made up his mind.

. . . . Or Parish.

Yeah, maybe. 😀

Amusing to think of Parish heading down to the training pitch to give him the evil eye.

No it isn't.

If Uche was any good he would have been starting since November. If he can't start when Mateta is playing with a dodgy knee, then he clearly isn't good enough for Crystal Palace.

What's more disappointing is the calibre of signings we made in the summer.

Won’t be Glasner who decides….hopefully the new manager will get a chance to decide what happens.

Maybe but if so it isn’t Parish alone who doesn’t rate him. Glasner is the one who has decided not to bring him on as a sub, as that wouldn’t trigger for us to sign him.

 

[eaglesdare]

Fairly disappointed that uche was not included.

But hey I'm not in the training ground every day.

Wonder if we signed they guy from everton who would miss out then?

 

[Eagleman13]

Yeah, maybe. 😀

I was thinking as he holds the purse strings per se. Love the reply tho.

 

[eritheagle]

I think uche was a panic loan/buy cos we lost out on guessard to villa.

But now we've got him.

 

[Stirlingsays]

Uche has been treated poorly.

Not 100% sure how it works without looking it up but I would say Kporah would have moved into the B list if McNiel had signed .
You cant move Kporah out for Uche or Uche to the B list as he is not eligible for that list . We have our full compliment of Foreign players in the 25 .And you can only swap so many players ,so from what I gather it would have been a 2 from 3 of Guessand ,Uche and Strand Larsen

The make up of the 25 A list is a mish mash of home grown players , national affiliations ,foreign FAs ,3 goalkeepers and probably other stuff Ive forgot . The B list is Home grown ,under 21's basically your youth squads with unlimited numbers
Tough on Uche but at the end of the day he is not our player and it looks like he is not going to be .

The full squad size is indeed 25.

However, the squad must include at least 8 locally trained players, of which 4 must be club trained.

Club trained players are shown in red in the original post. Association trained players (which are those players who are locally trained but not club trained) are shown in bold.

Until the last window we had 4 club trained players, Mitchell, Kphora, Clyne, and JRS, but this number was reduced to 3 when JRS went out on loan to Stoke, this was reduced to 3.

If these quotas are not met,the size of the squad must be reduced accordingly.

Hence, because we sent JRS out on loan, our squad size has been reduced to 24.

And of course we have also lost Guehi ,Eze and Esse from the previous 25 all association trained . Bloody complicated this European football lark , lets hope Parish got the e-mail
