Hey all, This may sound like a stupid question, but why isn't Edgar available for the Champions League?
He's already been registered by Juventus, hence he can't play for Roma unless they advance to the next round.
Champions League doesn't really use the concept of being "Cup tied" but instead has deadlines for each round by which date players have to be registered by their team. If a player is registered for one team, he can't play for another team - in that round. He may be eligible to play for another team in a later round, if he's registered by that team ahead of that round's deadline.
That's what I figured. Obviously, Davids won't be eligible to play for Roma for matchdays 1-8 but, if your right, and he transfers to Roma before he plays a minute of Champions League football for Juve then he would be eligible to play for Roma in the CL in February.
Don Luciano hits again Roma didn't make a strong bid to acquire Davids,they weren't serious about it. Maybe they have financial issues... If that's the case,they could have sold us Totti,or Samuel: we'd talk.
