Angelino

Has he ever been a LW though? I don’t remember it, nor do I think he’d be good at it. Always thought he was an attacking midfielder? But now I’d prefer him in a deeper midfield role if he’s to play anywhere other than left back.

Going off Football Manager, who always do their research, they've had him down as a natural RW for years now.

Surprising! I could envisage him having played centrally in an advanced position, but winger seems mad. Not surprised he’s developed into other positions!
 
Happy with this. But i think Angelino's long-term future here depends heavily on Mendy.

If Mendy can stay fit (a big if?). I can see Angelino's career with us being quite short.
 
Won best young player in the Eredivisie and got into the team of the season (ahead of Tagliafico who seems decent). Dumfries (their RB) also got into the TOTS, none of their CBs did

I think he's made TOTS 2 years running now, which shows he's been very consistent over a decent period of time.
 
Sky sports understands he's on his way to Manchester to complete the deal

They really have their fingers on the pluse don't they?
In a few hours, Jim White will tell us that he understands City are interested in Angelino.
 
On his HG status...

He's still 22, so doesn't have to be registered yet, meaning he probably won't have to count during the September registration period. (I realise we may still register him for CL and PL to get to the 8)

He turns 23 in January, so I'm not 100% sure if he'd have to be registered for the January/February period. I think not (can look it up) as I think he'd have to turn 23 before January this year.

Point is, he may not really "count" towards HG registration as it's a waste of a squad place for a probable fringe player, and hence why we are looking for another HG (association trained) player (i.e. Ake or Maguire)

21 is the cut off age for the B list, so he will have to be registered.

The cutoff date for the 2019/20 season is 1 January 1998. Everyone born before, including Angeliño (born 4 January 1997), needs to be registered as part of the 25-man squad. Since he spent more than 36 months with City before the age of 21, he will be considered a club-trained homegrown player.

It's not rocket science, lads.

It is for a bear of very little brain like me.

I already got into this discussion as someone assumed I didn't get the difference about him being a "club grown" player vs. "association trained" and understand the difference quite well, thanks.

I wrote this because as I was originally under the impression registration limits were for u21s, but recently I saw somewhere that counting towards registration was for u23s not u21s.

Otherwise I understand how it works, but I do think for plenty of others it can be confusing.
