Premier League clubs have submitted their squads for the final half of the season following the close of the January transfer.
In a surprise list, Manchester City league-leading AWOL striker Carlos Tevez was included in their 23-man squad while Blackburn defender Chris Samba is another wantaway star named in his club's squad, despite not playing since handing in a transfer request last month.
Meanwhile, second-placed Manchester United have added injured skipper Nemanja Vidic, while Liverpool will evidently hope that midfielder Lucas Leiva also makes a swift recovery as the Merseysiders put forward the smallest squad with just 19 names included.
In the EPL rule which states that each club's 25-man squad should have eight homegrown players who - regardless of age or nationality - have spent three years in the youth system of a club in England or Wales before they reached the age of 21.
Contrary to reports elsewhere, players aged under 21 can, if required, be named in the 25-man squad as a homegrown player. An Under-21 player is defined as being born on or after January 1, 1989.
Clubs can use an unlimited number of Under-21 players in addition to their 25-man squad. For instance, Chelsea would not need to name Daniel Sturridge and Arsenal Jack Wilshere in their 25-man squad.
Any player who is left out of the 25-man squad will only be eligible to play in the Carling Cup until January 1. From January 1 to January 31, clubs can make unlimited changes to their 25-man squad. On February 1 a new 25-man squad must be named to run until the end of the current campaign.
If a club chooses fewer than 25 players for their squad it is almost certainly due to them having a large number of under-21 players. Clubs with fewer than 25 players in their squad are still permitted to sign free agents.
