Manchester United name final 24-man Premier League squad for 2014/15

Man Utd

New Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal has revamped his squad, especially on transfer deadline day, and a new look Red Devils look all set to compete with the big boys in the Premier League again.

With a powerful squad that boasts of the best attack in England and no other competitions to distract them, Manchester United are well and truly on the cusp of something monumental.

Premier League squad rules

  1. A club cannot have more than 17 foreign players who don’t fall under the 'Home Grown Player' status.
  2. A club can name as many U-21s as they like, even over and above the limit of 25 players.
  3. To qualify as a home-grown player, a player must have been registered with any club tied to the Football Association or Football Association of Wales for at least three whole seasons or 36 months, all before they turn 21. However, it does not have to have been in one continuous stretch.
