I can see it now... Manfredini signs for Juve :disagree:

& i can't see benzema taking the pay cut necessary to be here.

Dusan, isn't there some sort of exception to being cup tied when switching competitions? Especially as we're only in the qualifying stages?

About who you ask? When it comes to Aquilani I think he can play for us in EL.

I'm not sure about the rule itself, though.

Good luck trying to find teams who are willing to buy Grygera and Zebina with their wages. And even if we do find, it will takes a long time to do and we can't afford that to happen since the whole squad needed to be improved.

I agree, but at least according to rumours, almost all summer the board concenrated on forwards - postition, which requires the least strengthening.

That's because apparently Dzeko is Agnelli's dream signing. The non-EU rule fucked it up for us though because we were in dilemma with him and Krasic. I don't see us getting a striker now to be honest, a CB and possibly a LB.

There is some sort of a rule that a team can register 1 player in January who was previously registered in other team but only if a team never played in the same tournament. Even if the team played in qualifications round of Champions League, the player couldn't be registered for a Champions League team, but he could for Europa League team.

I bet that Aquilani will not be eligible to play. At least according to Europa League regulations.

But i though Hodgson said he did not play hime so he won't be cup-tied? or was hodgson just talking out his ass?

Yeah, I don't understand that too. Maybe there are some exceptions which are not available to public (but I doubt) or maybe he was talking about possible registration for a Champions League club, but at that case he could have played as far as I understand. I think the only way to register Aquilani this season is if Liverpool do not make to the group stage.
