Friendly – 3-1

I have loan offers from 7 clubs for Osorio. He clearly is on folks’ radars. He isn’t even listed for loan! I want to keep him this half of the year so he can learn the language and help the two Colombians cope and such, and I want to give him some subs and starts in EURO play and such.

Huh.

I just realized that I might have been making an assumption about non-EU play that I screwed up on for Romania. Let me try something in a moment.

What I am trying is this…

Why can I play four South American players on my squad?

I never did the math.

ST Gimenez – Argentina
ST Schlocobiert – Brazil
DC Hansell Riojas, Peru
DMC Wilder Cartagena, Peru

That’s four players. Four.

I figured it out.

Here are the match registration rules for Romania, as a reminder:



Squad Registration –

Maximum 25 players

No more than 3 EU players

EU includes both EU nations and Cotonou signees

At least four players training at Sepsi

At least eight players trained in Romania

Players under 21 do not need to be registered


Do you see it?

I never registered Schlocobiert as one of my squad. Just like Lupu, Petre for a while, Kubik, Antov, Palenik, GK Maio, and many other younger players, I never had to register them. So the cap on EU players only applies to players that are registered. It never applied to Schlocobiert, and it won’t apply to my two new Colombian additions either!

Mind………blown.

It’s no *wonder* Cluj were able to buy a team, where I have had to build one.

Well I feel sheepish…
