New Premier league rules have become headache for most of the Premier league managers this season.
According to new Premier league rules each club must announce its 25 man squad before the end of every transfer window. Managers will be allowed to change the squad only during the transfer window with provisional rule in place for extenuating circumstances (like Goal keeper Crisis).
In addition club must register a 25 man squad which must include eight 'home-grown' players, meaning that they have been associated with the FA or Welsh FA for three seasons (or 36 months) prior to their 21st birthday. And home grown does not refer nationality, simply how much years they have spend in England as a youngster.
And club can also supplement squad with unlimited number of players under the age of 21.
These rules applies to only Premier league matches and does not apply on Champions League, Carling cup or FA.
The new Premier league rules were imposed soon after the England's second world early exit. In theory these new rules will help to groom the young talent in house rather than buying expensive foreign players.
The prices increases in the market after Manchester City, Barcelona and Real Madrid spend a massive amount in the last season. Only Manchester City Spend more the 150 Million Pounds during the last three seasons.
Richard Scudamore, Chief Executive of the Premier League, said: 'It encourages youth development and promotion of young players, but this is nowhere near a nationality test'.
Now it would be interesting to see how Premier league clubs manages them-self according to new Premier League rules.
