It's not entirely obvious from the Sky webpage that I got the info from, but the way it's written seems to imply that applies to the keeper and 3 outfield players who can be over 23, i.e. they can't be me much over 23. Someone born on 1/1/1993 is now 23 years and 7 months old. The Sky webpage doesn't say if it's a fixed date or if it increases by a year each season.
This has to be good in that it gives game time to 'fringe' players ....how many games have Gamboa and Poc played in the last 2 years ?Also it must be good that some of the younger lads get experience playing with senior players ....even if some of them are 'bomb squad' members.
Just took this off Matt Wison's twitter page, very interesting.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Gz0QXzWcm8
Apart from Myhill, they're all bomb squad members! If they weren't, some of them would have been on the bench on Saturday, rather than the teenagers Pulis put there in preference. The line-ups on Saturday and yesterday does show how little depth we have in our squad - we don't even have enough in favour senior players to populate a match day 18.
Lets not assume though that teenagers are not good enough to be on the bench on merit.
Had a lad on trial for us from arsenal tonight? https://arsenalyouth.wordpress.com/2016/08/22/arsenal-youngster-tyrell-robinson-scores-while-on-trial-at-west-bromwich-albion/?
can anyone tell us how I can keep up to date with the scores tonight against the wolves.
Would have liked to have seen Robson Kanu get some minutes.
