Why "can't" ?

Cause Bertrand isn't locally trained, not a association trained/club trained , between the age of 15-21.

Yeah, I understood that. But, he could have been included instead of someone like Ferreira...

[Henri 115]

Kalou instead of Lukaku, oh dear Mr. Boas

[xPetrCechx 13,570]

Shame but its only for the Group Stage no?....

[Henri 115]

Salomon FUCKING Kalou gets in ahead of Lukaku, no justice in the world.

Talk about good ways to rock someone's confidence, not happy with AVB on this one. By all means, have Kalou's experience for the knockout rounds, but what's the point of playing a team like GENK and not playing someone like Lukaku, or even Bertrand? Fucking bollocks, not at all happy with AVB here!

Putting Ferreira in as well? We have Bosingwa and Ivan at RB, and then you can have Cole and Bertrand at LB, whilst Bosingwa can play there as well. Seriously, what the fuck? Really pissed off.

Have to say i agree, this feels like a wrong decision of Mr. Boas

[xPetrCechx 13,570]

but He is under 21 so he doesnt need to be registered no?

[xPetrCechx 13,570]

I Can't UnderStand.

Joshua & Choluba Can play after the Group Stage and Lukaku & Bertrand Can't Play All the Tournament???

Y? They under 21... (in FM you don't need to Register them at all).

[The Rising Sun 711]

this is extremely disappointing but looking at it from another point of view,

Lukaku will be given enough chances in the next 6 months or 3-4 months or so. He has to win his place over Kalou and prove he has CL class.

Putting him in now would be ideal but lukaku shouldnt get everything too easy.

He is already preferred over Kalou in the PL, so more match practice , better touch and a couple of goals will get him in for the knockouts....

This is exactly what i thought the rules were :S would someone care to enlighten us?

[Henri 115]

The more i think of it there more pissed i get, fuck this is stupid Boas!. kick out Malouda and Kalou but not Lukaku.

He could have been so important up in front,

[Rkk 17]

This is exactly what i thought the rules were :S would someone care to enlighten us?

The reason for Josh and Chalobah allowed to play is due to the fact

player may be registered on List B if he is born on or after 1 January 1989

and has been eligible to play for the club concerned for any uninterrupted

period of two years since his 15th birthday by the time he is registered with

UEFA. Players aged 16 may be registered on List B if they have been

registered with the participating club for the previous two years without

interruption.

This is what i search upon UEFA rules and found, i guess Lukaku can't be part of B list. But if lukaku is allowed for A list i don't understand why AVB let him out.

[Guest justin_3d]

Picking Kalou ahead of Lukaku.....

And Bertrand the only LB to replace A. Cole....

Where is the youth that AVB should have played?

So far his expectation of youth are far below that of Carlo!

Very bad AVB!

[nadavTKL 1,787]

Maybe Boas wants Lukaku to start his Chelsea career only in England first, May be he dont think he's ready yet.

He's only 18, remmember that.

About Bertrand- shame... cant understand that.
