Mancinis 25

Whos on the list? And is it the same for the Europa and cups as it is for the Premier league?

Sorry missed it I think.

Whos on the list? And is it the same for the Europa and cups as it is for the Premier league?

Sorry missed it I think.

City have to submit a list of names to Uefa in line with new guidelines about home-grown players and even though there are spaces in that squad for them - only 23 of a possible 25 names were registered - neither Bellamy nor Ireland has made it.

The news will disappoint many Blues fans, who are becoming resigned to the departure of two players that have been crowd favourites down the years.

Bellamy said on Tuesday that he did not expect to be in Roberto Mancini's 25-man Premier League squad, while Ireland was expected to be part of the deal that will see James Milner move to Eastlands from Aston Villa before Martin O'Neill's resignation threw the whole transfer into confusion.

New signing David Silva also misses out. As Spain ended up in the World Cup final and Silva has also been forced to undergo a lengthy trip to Mexico for tonight's friendly with Spain, Mancini probably reasons the winger would be better served by continuing to train, knowing he can make adjustments for the competition proper.

City's three other new arrivals - Yaya Toure, Jerome Boateng and Aleksandar Kolarov - have made the squad, as have two players whose futures are shrouded in doubt; Roque Santa Cruz and record signing Robinho.

Squad: Given, Hart, Taylor; Richards, Boateng, Zabaleta, Kolo Toure, Lescott, Logan, Bridge, Kolarov; Wright-Phillips, Adam Johnson, Yaya Toure, Michael Johnson, Barry, Vieira, Kompany, de Jong; Adebayor, Robinho, Santa Cruz, Tevez.

Whoops, looks like I'm hogging the board but mancio will pick the best 25 going (apart from Paddy) and we have no choice whatsoever.

Night John Boy!

That isn't the true UEFA list, it's been changed already.

This is the latest version inc B list players (marked)

1 Shay Given
12 Stuart Taylor
25 Joe Hart ENG

2 Micah Richards ENG
3 Wayne Bridge ENG
5 Pablo Zabaleta ARG
13 Aleksandar Kolarov SRB
17 Jérôme Boateng GER
19 Joleon Lescott ENG
28 Kolo Touré CIV
30 Shaleum Logan ENG
36 *Javan Vidal ENG
38 *Dedryck Boyata BEL
41 *Benjamin Mee ENG
45 *Greg Cunningham IRL

4 Vincent Kompany BEL
6 Michael Johnson ENG
8 Shaun Wright-Phillips ENG
11 Adam Johnson ENG
18 Gareth Barry ENG
21 David Silva ESP
24 Patrick Vieira FRA
34 Nigel de Jong NED
40 *Vladimír Weiss SVK
42 Yaya Touré CIV
49 *Donal McDermott IRL

9 Emmanuel Adebayor TGO
10 Robinho BRA
14 Roque Santa Cruz PAR
27 Jô BRA
32 Carlos Tévez ARG

That squad has to inlude 4 'City trained homegrown' players hence Logan & M Johnson.

A PL squad of 25:

1 Shay Given
12 Stuart Taylor
25 Joe Hart ENG

2 Micah Richards ENG
3 Wayne Bridge ENG
5 Pablo Zabaleta ARG
13 Aleksandar Kolarov SRB
17 Jérôme Boateng GER
19 Joleon Lescott ENG
28 Kolo Touré CIV

4 Vincent Kompany BEL
8 Shaun Wright-Phillips ENG
11 Adam Johnson ENG
18 Gareth Barry ENG
21 David Silva ESP
24 Patrick Vieira FRA
34 Nigel de Jong NED
42 Yaya Touré CIV

9 Emmanuel Adebayor TGO
10 Robinho BRA
14 Roque Santa Cruz PAR
27 Jô BRA
32 Carlos Tévez ARG

= 23 + Milner = 24.

So basically unless we buy another player or put injured M Johnson in the squad, we're a player short of 25 now we've kicked out Bellamy & Ireland. If we sell Jo, RSC & Robinho, we're down to 21 so I guess we'll be keeping most of them or buying more.
