It's Quiet the £250m return

[decmancity]

Vagner Love has signed too. Along with Mido and Geoff Thomas.

I’ve just seen Steed Malbranque at the Arndale. Make of that what you will

 

[CΛL]

Lewis and O'Reilly literally make absolutely no difference. Neither does a an additional HG player. We are over the limit on NHG players, and nothing but moving (currently 3) on, or not registering them in the CL changes that.

I meant as in we could have more players registered, if we signed English players, we could shift Lewis and O’Reilly to the B list as they’re under 21.

We HAVE to put them on the A list as part of the 8 locally trained, 4 of which have to be club trained.

Foden
Trafford
Bobb
O’reilly
Lewis

They make up that contingent atm because they have to, had we signed Livaremento, we could have registered him for CL without it making a difference on the 17 foreign spots, by shifting one of O’reilly, Bobb or Lewis to the B list.

That’s what I’m saying.

That makes absolutely no sense. Sorry mate.

There is no shifting to be done, within the squad or lists. We are 3 over the NHG limit. We have one space in the HG limit, since Grealish left, but we still need rid of 3. 4 if we are to sign any more. Nothing else makes any difference.

 

[City Raider]

Can’t see Rodrygo wanting to come to us to play on the right so not sure why his transfer is contingent on Savinho leaving

We dont HAVE to fill that list. Those eligible for the B list, go on thr B list, if part of the permitted quota remain unfilled then thats fine. Those players eligible for the B list are irrelevant when it comes to the make up of the squad, they're free players. We have 1 solitary spot for a homegrown player that currently remains open.

 

[TonyColemansbagofapples]

Vagner Love has signed too. Along with Mido and Geoff Thomas.

Thomas failed the medical because he walked over some broken glass on the way here.

 

[bell_mcfc]

sorry, brainfarted for a moment

But would need to be replaced by Rodrygo/another replacement if Savio goes or Savio if he stays.

So still 1 over.

It was seemingly a false rumour that he wanted to play on the left mate.

How many of those do we see ?

Seems this thread is made up of them and are quickly seized upon - the window closing can't come soon enough imo.

I’m not sure that’s right but happy to be corrected.

If you don’t have 8 on the locally trained for the A list, you lose a foreign spots accordingly?

We have 8 but several are young enough to go on the B list, so in theory, if we signed Livaremento, one of those could go on the B list.

He is right. They are limits not to exceed, rather than spaces needing filled.

To be honest he's not just replacing Savio but also Grealish so he'll play on the left.

Last season we went into it with 6 wide players - Grealish, Doku, Foden, Savio, Bobb, McAtee. We used Bernie out there a bit because of the Bobb injury and then signed Marmoush in January.

This year could be Rodrygo, Doku, Marmaoush, Bobb, Cheki, Foden. Cherki/Foden can play the 10 and Marmaoush can cover Haaland.

So plenty of minutes for Rodrygo.

The way I look at it is Bobb is replacing Savio on the right and Rodrygo is replacing Jack on the left. But all these players can play multiple positions.

 

[CΛL]

He is right. They are limits not to exceed, rather than spaces needing filled.

so I’m wrong I thinking that 8 of the 25 on the A list have to be locally trained, with 4 of those being club trained, and that you lose spots accordingly if you can’t fill them?

Because that’s my understanding and why I think we want Livaremnto and not a foreign right back, as they would join the 8 locally trained on the A list and not one of the remaining 17, with a young player shifted to the B list

Ah fuck okay I get it now, so the young ones go to list B anyway and we just have more spots for locally trained players and still 17 foreign.

Still, I think that means we could register more on the A list if we signed English players no?

 

[NQCitizen]

It was seemingly a false rumour that he wanted to play on the left mate.

Always seemed a bit of Madrid PR to be like "oh its ok if we have to sell him because Mbappe and Vinicius play there"

As opposed to he's just a RW who doesn't want to be here that much.

 

[Matt Diablo]

We could just leave a player out for UCL registration as well.

Talks it could be Kovacic until at least January due to the injury. I don't know else could be a viable alternative to leave out, really.

Seems a good call

 

[manimanc]

Rico been offered double money from Forest.

He's having a meeting with Pep to see how the land lies.

Fair enough, lets be honest, hes not going to start the big games is he?

Surely we keep a good young player who's versatile and club trained.

Doesn't even solve any squad place issues.

If our transitional clear out of the old guard was actually in fact mcatee, Lewis and savinho it feels a bit backwards.

Yeah but with psr he would be pure profit
