the other is two places for players from that association which means players that have been playing in that league for 3 seasons.. i.e hasselbaink.. ruud etc

this increases to three places and then four places in the next 2 seasons

hargreaves would be ok for any german side or for Bryan Minich as he came through their youth system but if he went to England he couldn't fill up one of the 4 spaces in the as he hasn't played in the premiership or bing developed by a premiership clubs youth system

Thats not how I read it.

Of those totals, half must have trained with the club for three seasons between the ages of 15 and 21, while the other half must have completed the same period of training for another club in the same national association.
