The poster from 6CM had this to say

 

It's from Liverpool.no

 

The reason they're dropped is because of 8 player rule, have to been registered with the club for so and so long.

OUt of the 25 players, 8 has to be trained by a club in England, while 4 has to be trained by the club.

Thats why they are dropped, and Eccelston, Irwin and Hansen are in.

[CarraLegend]

Shame if true but if we have to do it then we have to do it.

[Hassony]

[Spion kop]

treated like a dog

bit of an overreaction that. He knew he wasn't going to play consistantly and there is a second stage registration.

[Bailo]

There are 9 players there though?

[Ben 23]

Flynn's a bit of an odd one in my opinion?

[DaveLFC]

We have Carra, Agger and Skrtel. I think we're covered for the CL. Hyypia only got a lot of games last season because of the injury to Agger and because Skrtel was new.

 

I think we'll be ok. Although Hyypia did a brilliant job last season.

I wasn't being entirely serious

[Spion kop]

I wasn't being entirely serious

Ah.

[_00_deathscar]

There's more than 8 players trained by a club in England though? Gerrard and Carra already make up 2 of the 4 required to have been trained by the club anyway.

[Sion]

Don't understand this

All it would take is an injury to one of the other 3 CB's, and we've got absolutely no cover.

[CarraLegend]

We are in crisis.

Apart from Arbeloa.

[Knox_Harrington]

Haha!

[Sion]

Apart from Arbeloa.

 

His ability at full back is questionable as it is, nevermind at CB

Hyypia is Finnish for Wolf Hound.

[CarraLegend]

Newcastle supporters would stand up to this s****! We just bend over and take it.

 

Rafa, Rafa, Rafa, OUT! OUT! OUT!

 

Shoes off if you love Sami!

 

Carragher and Skrtel should be subject of a boo-athon when they have the ball against the filth. We've got to show our support for Sami.

Rafa shows once again that he is a bad man manager and evil human being

 

the way he has treated Finnan, Pennant, Voronin and now Hyypia is outrageous

 

Jose would have played them all in his team

"Aye like, we're the pure loyalest in the land us like, but if the Messiah that is Sami Hyypia gets dropped in the Champions League that we're never in, then I might stop goin the game ya na. We've been kept in the dark about Sami again"

[Rory Fitzgerald]

On a serious note. I would have left out Degen given that Carra and Arbeloa can play RB.

 

If 1 of our 3 CB's are injured/suspended, I'd prefer Hyypia as cover to Arbeloa.

 

If another went down injured I would not fancy a back 4 that included Degen, Arebloa and Dossena*

 

 

*Just doesnt have the robustness of a back line with Carra at RB and Sami in the middle

[John am Rhein]

Irwin and Hansen are in.

 

Ageing center-back partnership, that

Martin Kelly.

I'd suggest a boycoutt.

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.

The way things worked out we were always going to have to leave out a first team squad member, I guess we're better stocked at CB than in other areas so Sami misses out. It could just be a f*** up from the UEFA site though. This wouldn't have happened if we'd gotten Barry. Irwin would have been on the B list, but we've had to include him in the full squad because we didn't have the full 8.

Still think this is a mistake personally. Just takes an injury and a suspension and we'll be looking vulnerable at centre half, instead of plugging the gap with the ever reliable Sami Hyypia. He showed last season how valuable he is in the Champions league with his aerial presence, cool head and experience. Often comes up with a vital goal too - as he did against Arsenal last year. Hmmm...
