It's a minimum requirement if you want to name 25. The rules are formulated (I think) in terms of a maximum permitted number of NON HG players. So if you don't have enough HGs you have to name a smaller squad.
they also have the most ridiculous photo ops to, What are they all doing ? looks like whoever organised this photo shoot was on some special herbal tea.
For those, like myself, who like to read into things, Arsenal's kit launch features Giroud, centre stage
He's not coming, is he...
It also has Sanchez in it and he is out in Russia. It must have been taken weeks ago and alot can have changed since then as he is rumoured to be leaving!
The rumours are that Sanchez to Man City is already a done deal and Ozil will be off to Fenerbahce. Those two will pay for Lacazette's move to Arsenal and the Giroud will be allowed to leave.
;hmm so I go away for a couple of hours come back and see nearly 30 new blogs was sure we had signed someone good, but no nothing have you guys got nothing better to do ;whistle

Maybe there's a restriction in the Premier League, only one Sam in the senior squad
Champo - rather than a problem with foreign players, the issue is finding 8 senior HG players - which is a minimum requirement for the 25.
