If you guys don't like that rule now imagine 30 years ago when you could only field 3 foreigners

If i had my way it'd go back to the old ways. Let the talent be spread between everybody, something like Madrid would never happen unless they produced their own top players. Having all the best foreign players in the world for every single position kills competitiveness, leave that for NTs.

The rule is good, well better than what it is now, but unfortunately Italy doesn't produce the best players. It'd only work if everybody else in Europe also followed that rule.

I remember UEFA wanted to implement a rule like that but labour laws forbade it

 

[Ocelot]

I think I could rather easily get behind such a rule being implimented in every member of UEFA, but Serie A, with their current, already fragile sportive and financial situation introducing it on it's on is suicidal.

Yep, I think the agreement of free labour movement across EU countries makes such a rule illegal. I'm curious as to how the FIGC plans to sidestep this.

Fuckin Lotito and Tagliavento

 

[CrimsonianKing]

Well, they should fight over it. It'd be more fair to everybody. Look at how it used to be:

"The Dutch" Milan had Rijkaard, Gullit and Van Basten

We had Platini, Laudrup, Bonini

"The German" Inter had Klinsmann, Matthaus and Brehme

Roma had Aldair, Voller and Berthold

Napoli had Maradona, Careca and Alemão

And so on.

Obviously as i said it'd make no sense to field 8 crap Italians against a force like Bayern Munich but if everybody was to follow the rule, teams would have their identity back. On the same token that would mean the end of the Premier League and the oil clubs.

I think that quota is a move in the right direction for a league where 26 year olds are considered youngsters, if You can't convince the clubs to act sensibly You have to force them. Another point why Serie A should help domestic footballers besides foreigner invasion:
In 1974, when Del Piero was born, there were 868,882 new borns in Italy, 1990, when Immobile was born, there were 563,019 new borns

 

[JuveJay]

We had Platini, Laudrup, Bonini

I'm pretty sure Bonini didn't count, being Sammarinese, the restriction was just two players then.

You're correct. I don't remember exactly when it changed to 3 but it was somewhere between 86,87 or 88.

Roma's defender Maicon has been dropped from the national squad due to a serious breach of discipline.

The thing is, rumour in Brazil has it that they caught him having sex with Elias.

Who's Elias?

Making this law as a single national competition is suicidal in europe

Plus the national team competition would make sense again.

 

[Quetzalcoatl]

If they did that, the best part would be how shitty EPL would become again.
It would be cool if it was internationally legislated and some of the big South American talents stay in their leagues. Football would be a lot more interesting that way.

But money talks.

 

[CrimsonianKing]

Who's Elias?

Played for Corinthians in the past, then Sporting, flopped at Madrid and is back at Corinthians.

 

[Red]

Rossi is out for 4/5 months what a shame

So, at what point do you have to say that Fiorentina have lost out on the gamble they took in spending a lot of cash on Rossi?

New rule could be coming in next season, minimum 4 Italians have to be on the pitch for each side

Won't happen.

why? Juve play 5 Italians as starters and we got way more quality than any other team in this league, the rule is 4, besides this is not about Europe but about Serie A and Azzurri, it's not like Italian teams are setting Europe on fire anyway lately

It'll be better for everybody. South American teams would keep their "stars" seeing as the only the very best would leave for Europe. European clubs would have to go back to Football basics and focus on their youth.

There would be drawbacks as well, but overall I'd defenitely be in favor of such a rule, though a less strict one than in the past.








But it won't happen.

 

[Pirlo's Beard]

Unless all the leagues are doing it, this would be a gigantic massive set back

We, are by far the best club in the league and have the pick of the best Italians, and even those Italians are largely nothing special OR will soon be finished I.E Pirlo, Barzagli, Buffon.

Can you imagine how most of the teams would fare in Europe, having to start fucking Peluso and all that because of some ridiculous quota rule.

All those CL 3rd round exits, all the embarrasing EL early round exits in the hands of amateurs and the biggest triumph in recent years - a point record reaching, ruthless machine Juventus exiting CL groupstage, but reaching the glorious EL semi finals. Yeah, those 4 Italians per team would be a massive setback from the recent success.
