    A change for the better....IMO

    I've allways thought the manager should be alowed to pick anyone he wants from the squad.

    To not just withdraw this rule completely is a stupid move, now they're seen to be punishing clubs for giving youth a chance.

    The only disgrace is that common sense hasn't prevailed sooner.

    a lot of clubs just register the players as u21 to make room in the 25 man squad walcott at arsenal for example but to field a whole team of u18's making their debuts would be pushing it do you not think

    I think they just mean not to play a whole team of u21s .

    About time this stupid rule was abolished. Completely defeated the purpose of managers submitting a 25 man squad.

    That rule only applied to lower teams in the league apparantly.

    Ridiculous rule btw.
