As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

Should have said there are more complicated rules for the CL.
[quote]No club may have more than 25 players on List A during the season. As a
minimum, places 18 to 25 on List A (eight places) are reserved exclusively
for “locally trained playersâ€

ALMUNIA CAN!!!
The Spanish Waiter does not qualify as he wasn't here before he was 21. Not sure if Vela qualifies either.
