You mentioned yourself the reason to run 7: dropping players will drop the team enthusiasm. Until the manager knows which players will hold game shape and feels out the reliability of player owners there is no need to run more players than needed, as each player chosen will have to remain on the roster all season even if unusable by injury or poor GS.

Less than 7 would be a little risky, but 7 players vs Jamaica and you have a win even if two players had fouled out. Sahand is spot on here.

What is the roster size limit on NT? Is it 12? Or can extra reserves be stockpiled?

Yeah Bob broke it down succinctly, even though I have piddled around here for years I am unfamiliar with the methods behind the madness. So in retrospect whatever criticism leveled for the thin roster was in error. I take it your plan is to slowly draw the call-ups and to build for giving us the best chance once the 2nd phase of the competition begins.
