I want to say that's the Intertoto Cup he won with West Ham in 1999 but that doesn't look like the trophy..

His technique is sooo good. Hopefully, players that never score like Kovacic can learn from Lamps

If Frank can get Kovacic scoring he deserves a 20 year extension to his contract and penis.

It's alright showing the technique but Frank had a 6th sense when it came to finding space. Just constantly looking for the pockets to glide into

Frank Lampard to trim his Chelsea squad by sending highly-rated defensive duo out on loan

https://metro.co.uk/2019/07/23/frank-lampard-trim-chelsea-squad-sending-highly-rated-defensive-duo-loan-10447755/

Frank Lampard will allow England U21 defenders Fikayo Tomori and Jake Clarke-Salter to leave Chelsea on loan for the upcoming season after assessing his defensive options.

It looks as though Lampard has settled on having David Luiz, Antonio Rudiger, Andreas Christensen and Kurt Zouma as his four specialist central defenders next season. Everton had expressed an interest in re-signing Zouma following a successful loan spell at Goodison Park last season but Lampard is keen to retain the Frenchman’s services. With Cesar Azpilicueta also able to deputise in central defence, neither Tomori nor Clarke-Salter will be required next season, despite both being well thought of at Stamford Bridge.

So if this is true, I assume Drinkwater stays to make up part of the 8 HG slots needed then. Barkley, Drinkwater, Ruben, CHO, Andreas, Mount, James and Tammy? Don't think I've missed anyone thats in the current squad just now that is realistically going to be there.

You don't need to have 8 HG players, you just can't have more than 17 non HG.

I thought the rule was you needed 8 HG players to balance out the 17 non HG. Either HG as in English/Welsh or oversea players who have spent 3 years at English/Welsh academies prior to turning 21.

No you can not name a single HG player if you felt fit but you would have to fill your squad with U21s outside of the 17 foreign player's.

If having 8 HG players was a rule we'd have fallen foul numerous times already, I can't be bothered to check but I think we've very rarely had 8 registered HG players (not including U21s as you can register as many of them as you like HG or not) since the rule was implemented, if ever. Think at one point we literally only had Terry, Cahill and Cesc.
