Everton Squad lists submitted

Michael Kenrick , 4 September, 23comments | Jump to most recent

Everton have confirmed a list of 23 players (including nine homegrown players) in their senior 25-man squad and name a total of 45 Under-21 players (including Barkley, Stones and Lukaku) eligible for selection under current Premier League rules.

No club can have more than 17 players who are ineligible for 'Home Grown Player' status, however as many Under-21 players as they like can be named, over and above the limit of 25 players.

Home grown players are those who have been registered with any club tied to the FA for three whole seasons or 36 months prior to their 21st birthday. It does not have to have been in one continuous stretch.

The 25-man squad cannot be changed again until the transfer window reopens on 1 January 2015; however, emergency loans and free-agent signings can be added before then.

Some fantastic names in there; Fils, Nikodem, Gislain, Josue, Blazquez, Twasam, Delial, Zibusiso, Mateusz, Menama... and Anthony James Hibbert.

Philip Nikodem Jagielka, love it!

Junior's loan to StrÃ¸msgodset in Norway apparently ended in mid-August. He may be taking a break before coming back to training as I believe he played through most of the summer. He has not played for the U21s so far this season... although, now he's over 21, he ranks as one of the three over-age players allowed in teams for that league.

Can someone explain to me why the Irish players qualify as home grown? I thought that referred only to British players.

Shane Corcoran

Clarence, somebody else can probably explain it more precisely, but I think itÂ’s something to do with spending so many years below a certain age in England. YouÂ’ll notice Coleman doesnÂ’t qualify because he didnÂ’t head over until he was around 21.

Any player from any country can be 'home grown'. They have to have been at a club for 3 years before their 21st birthday.

Hence Fabregas was 'home grown' as Arsenal signed him when he was 16 or 17.

It's a bollocks rule as the big clubs just sign the best foreign teenagers and loan them out.

Shane Corcoran

Denis, is there not some rule recently brought in to try to prevent this? Perhaps the one that Barcelona have broken to get their transfer ban? Maybe thatÂ’s under-16s.

Is Nokidem Latin for "can't jump won't jump?" haha sorry Jags lad!

Jesus, how many names does Mirallas want?

Clarance #5, Tim Cahill qualified as home grown!

Jim# 13

It's actually Polish !

My Polish is not that good, but I understand that the name means (roughly translated) Just hoof it !

Alas, he has not recently, even being doing that, so I hear through the grapevine that, (it's a complicated process believe me) he has applied to change only his middle name, to Hasbinagoodun.

Sean Kelly#14

I love SuperKev, as we all do, but he has been accused of being a greedy bounder, ( both on and off the pitch) and therefore when names were being put forward, he took the lot, and is still looking for more. Hope that helps.

This information I was privy to, by my friend, John, James, Tarquin, Morrison, Weatherby, Aloysius, Christopher, Xerxes, George, Dupree!

Posing bastard, I just call him JD!

What's happened to that young Irish lad we got about 4 months ago , Stephen Kinsella ?

Jamie Yates

James Yates? Get in!

Derek Knox

Phil#17

He might have changed his name, as that seems to be the trend.

Good point though.

When you look at that squad list you quickly see that we need more and better central defenders.

Distin is the type of central defender I want, only a much younger version.

Jagielka is not built to be a central defender in my view.

Henen...Seriously? I wonder what happens if he scores every other game he comes on as a sub...or starts...

Paul Hewitt

IÂ’m getting MirallasÂ’ full name on my shirt.

Jamie Yates
24 Posted 04/09/2014 at 20:31:01

They got my middle name wrong mind. But I don't care, world's oldest first year scholar in football history, what a way to celebrate my 35th on Monday... *sob, sniffle*

Hello my old mate, have you suddenly come into money or what?

Mirallas's names on the shirt would cost more than we paid for Seamus. :-) Plus the shirt itself. WOW

Atsu has a funny name! Is Twasum his real surname? Good job that S is not a T!!

Conn Prosser

Clarence, that's an interesting point. McCarthy and Gibson are both born in the UK Â– Glasgow and Derry, respectively. They choose to play for the Irish Republic but are both British-born.

When we play West Brom, I hope Atsu gets to "Twasam".

Nikodem is a polish name from Nicodemus meaning "victory of the people"

Add "...Â’s club" and youÂ’ve got a poster.
