The deadline to submit the 25-man squad for the Conference League is midnight tonight, so be interesting to see who is on it (or more notably, not).

Can naebidy at the BBC contact AFC to find out the whereabouts of Boyd? Just to see if he's okay really, a young loon like that. Also ask him if he's seen Sokler. Cheers.

If we assume that Mitov, Suman, Duncan, Milne, Devlin, Nisbet, Shinnie and Frame will all be registered that leaves 15 more places available.  Boyd would not need to be registered as he's come through the youth system and is u21 so that leaves 5 players out of the following who will not be registered.
Gyamfi
Dorrington
Knoester
Molloy
Jensen
Tobers
Clarkson
Polvara
Nilsen
Palaversa
Kjartansson
Milanovic
Karlsson
Bilalovic
Aouchiche
Topi
Sokler
Yengi
Lazetic
Ambrose

Players I think should be left out.

My first 4 weren't too tough to pick 2bh  in Ambrose, Yengi, Molloy, Nilsen (though I suspect Jimmy would drop Kjartansson over him)  and I suspect there won't be any arguments from anyone about those ones but the 5th one is much harder.  If you pick Sokler that would leave only 2 cf's in the euro squad.  If you pick Kjartansson that only leaves 3 cm's though Polvara could play there in a pinch. It may be one of the wingers that get's overlooked as if Boyd is still with us he can play there.

Sokler may still be away according to Scott Burns 

 

Ester Sokler could still leave Aberdeen over the coming days.

The Slovenian striker has a number of options open to him.

They include Serbia and back in his homeland.

The Slovenian transfer window closes on Sunday and the Serbian one is 10 days later.

It means the 26-year-old could still exit Pittodrie sooner rather than later.

Sokler’s path may also have been cleared at Aberdeen by the transfer deadline signing of Kevin Nisbet.

It means Thelin now has Kusini Yengi, Marko Lazetic and Nisbet for the main striking berth.

The Dons were reluctant to let Sokler, who scored in the Europa play-off against FCSB, go until they got another striker in.

Peter Ambrose is another who could exit. He could move overseas or even drop down to the Championship on-loan.

Don't you need three goalies?

I'm guessing Gyamfi and Tobers could comfortably be left out.

I read somewhere that the Boyd to Villa deal was concluded on Sunday but there is additional work that requires to be done because he is under 18. He will be going to train with Villa.

I think Vitols can be registered on the same basis as: "Boyd would not need to be registered as he's come through the youth system and is u21".

Ambrose & Sokler seem to be on their way out so I'd drop them from the list. Gyamfi and Tobers seem like the most likely additions unless they're both scheduled to return imminently but both can be covered if not.

Technically yes but in reality its all about the A list registration.  I've avoided going into this as it just complicates things even more but for euro registration you have 2 lists, A+B.  "In the UEFA Conference League, clubs maintain two squad lists: List A has a maximum of 25 players, including a minimum of eight "locally trained" players, while List B has no limit on player numbers. Eligibility for List B is for players born on or after January 1, 2004, who have been with the club for at least two uninterrupted years after their 15th birthday."  2 Goalkeepers must be named on list A.

Last I heard on those two were they should be back to training soon but it all kicked off in my personal life for a few weeks (which is why I didn't post here for most of August) and I could have missed an update?

Think Gyamfi is October, not sure about Tobers. Given they've not had a preseason, they probably won't be up to speed for half the fixtures, so might be easier to just keep them out of it.

They don't show you the 78 efforts he blootered over the stand though. 

 

That would be an entirely different reel as they weren't deemed to be relevant for inclusion in a greatest goals compilation.
