It's Quiet the £250m return

I think Grealish is going to be the hardest one to sell. His wages is the major stumbling block for other clubs.

He’s just going to have to be realistic isn’t he? He’s had the big bag for a few years and if he was getting £200,000 a week say it’s hardly boo hoo money?
 
4 out imo should be..
1. Ederson (loved him but Trafford is a perfect replacement)
2. Akanji (no more Gvardiol at LB)
3. Gundogan (Reijanders is the perfect replacement)
4. Kovacic (his did his job well but we need room for the others)

I'd like Bernardo to go too but its unlikely and to be fair he is a decent CM when he is focused.

This year imo should be about creating a defensive platform to allow the best from Haaland, Marmoush, Doku, Cherki, Foden, Savinho, Bobb and Echeverri. Loads of attacking talent if Pep can find a way to allow them to have space and freedom.

My 1st choice signing is a new English CB who is fast and no nonesense. 2nd choice is a new English right back who is fast and no nonesense.

I've no idea if England has fast and no nonesense defenders. (I hate the 17 foreigner limitation rule)
You (and others) are looking at the squad rules the wrong way around I believe.

For the PL it's up to 8 HG slots, regardless of nationality (CT or AT).

You then have 17 open slots for everyone else so if you have 9 HG then 1 will be moved to the 17 open slots. You also have the U21's list so Khusanov for instance can still be on that list (born on or after 01/01/2004 for the coming season) as well as any U21 or U18s player.

Oscar Bobb for one has now moved off the U21's and will take up a HG slot unless full, in which case he can be moved to the 17 open slots instead.

And then you have the UEFA rules...
 
McAtee should be easy to move on.

Akanji Gundo and Ederson seem likely to leave.

Reis & Echeverri could easily find a loan.

Wouldn’t be surprised if Stones was allowed to leave as a Statement signing for Everton in the new ground.

Don’t know what happens to Grealish

If Stones and Akanji left that would allow us to get CB which I thought would be done next year we could get a jump on Liverpool and get Guehi tho looks like it’s too late

Who else ?

Would mean a new goalie

Would defiantly mean a new RB

Would mean a much stronger team next year and an incredible window

None of the players you mention are a RB so why definitely? Not that I doubt we're trying for one.
 
Few best English players in premier we should be looking at buying to fill our home quota Livamento, Gibbs-White Wharton and Trafford
 
Any credibility in Ter Stegen to City? 33years old.

Could we live with him and Trafford as two keepers?

But it’s the UEFA rules that we will most likely be aiming to meet. Doubt we will have players registered for one and not the other.

I have no idea of Ter Stegens form or fitness, off some posts maybe not, but if they are wrong thenI could see us getting both with Ter Stegen the number 2 even if not immediately.

I think we will try and get one regardless of who leaves but if CB leaves it means less chance of playing a CB at RB and when that many players leave it creates space and wages for a RB
 
Still? As Echeverri, Reis, Nyoan etc go on loan?
Yep. It is 4 NHG out and THEN it is one out one in.

And that's not including Walker who has left, Phillps, Bah, Nypan or such loan players who aren't part of the first team or didn't go to the CWC

Not sure what you mean by fast and no nonsense, but if it’s fast and lack of ability on the ball or fast and get rid, then there is no chance of that.

Don’t have room to buy 4 homegrown, don’t have room for any yet unless they are club trained.

Agreed, although I gave up on trying to work them out :(

Is it a maximum of 4 CT and a maximum of 4 AT, or can we have up 8 CT with the remainder of the 8 as AT?

Are the U21's for UEFA restricted to players who have been at the club for 3 years prior to turning 21?

I’m no expert but here goes. The maximum squad is 25 and the B list which consists of U21s that have been in the academy for 3 years.
The 25 is 4 club trained that were at the club for 3 years before 21. 4 association trained , the remaining 17 is a free list of players from anywhere.

Still think he is quality. Has great big game experience could be a quality edition on a 2 year deal.
