Are you sure about that? If not what is the reason?

A striker is not needed, the Manager is the problem.

Yes I'm sure, and the reason is because the rules says so, unfortunately.

My rules don't! (Does that count). I thought as youre obviously all over it you'd be pointing me in the direction of said rule.

Don't bother though, I'm gonna have my dinner soon!

While the transfer windows are open, clubs may change their squads as many times as they want. However they will only be able to make alterations outside the windows if there are exceptional circumstances and the changes are approved by the Premier League board.

For example, if a club has two out of three goalkeepers injured they may be permitted to bring in a replacement under the guidelines drawn up by a specially formed working party.

Players in the 25-man squads who go out on loan to Football League clubs may not be replaced. However they may reclaim their place on their return.

Clubs do not have to name a full squad of 25 if they do not have that many contracted players and in this instance they may add free agents outside the transfer window. However if they have 25 eligible contracted players, they must be named.

We didnt name 25 players over the age of 25. Therefore we can add players.

Oh well, looks like we're stuck (unless we want to sign a free transfer striker who is under 21, but theres not really much point)

What's that got to do with anything?

And we did name 25 players in our squad.

We have informed the premier league of our 25 man squad (now 24 man squad ) so I doubt we add to that before january.

A question: Not too sure of FA rules but if all our strikers are out injured cant we make an emergency loan?
Man City did it with Fulop in 2010....and cost them a UCL place
