It's Quiet 18 - Wanna ring the bell?

Can anybody actually see us making another signing this summer?. Even if Walker and another goes I just think it's all too quiet with regards to players linked. As the squad stands we could probably lose another two first team players but definitely no more
I look at it like a house sale where not everyone in the chain is ready to exchange contracts just yet, but once they are, completion will quickly follow
 
That is a terrible squad to face 6 competitions. You only have 13 players who would fight for being in the first 11 (Ederson, Akanji, Stones, Dias, Ake, Walker, Rodri, Kovacic, Foden, KDB, Bernardo, Grealish, Haaland, Alvarez), 1 that is a good player but doesn't work on this system (Laporte) and a bunch of unproven players (youngsters + Gomez and Phillips).

Pep likes small squads, but if anyone thinks Pep likes this or even last seasons size, they are delusional. Our medics are great, but our luck with injuries last season was a miracle that it is unlikely to repeat again. With our current squad we are literally 2 injuries away from having to play the same players in every PL and UCL match.
Majority of the season rotates around the core players it’s not a big deal at all.
 
i think its why we havent had confirmation of Mahrez leaving? Not allowing it to happen until we have our replacement sorted.
Just a case of finding the right replacement really. Not many profiles on market that would appeal Pep.

13 players for rotation. That would be our smallest squad ever. Again the possibilities of not having 2 or more players injured at the same time in an entire season are minimum (Stones, Ake, KDB, Foden, Kovacic are all injury prone).

I am sure Walker goes to Bayern and people like you will still say we are fine, see our starting 11. Or if KDB gets injured for 3 months, no worries we have Foden and Bernardo (like they can be cloned and play in two positions at the same time).

No team in Europe will play more matches than us next season. Having 13 players for 68 matches (that will be the amiunt of matches we have to play if we want to win everything) is...

yeah without question the squad needs filling out abit.
 
That still depends who goes though assuming Mahrez goes we can only fill out with 2 players. Need others to leave before anyone else comes in.

Laporte and Cancelo will still leave imo mate and i still think Walker will go and need replaced so still work to do but we can be bringing people in now if possible.
