Gabriel Jesus | Joins Arsenal for £45m

We now have a 16 man first team, there will be a lot more game time to be had.

16 man first team? We've got 22. 19 outfielders plus 3 keepers. Plus very likely two more coming in.

We now have a 16 man first team, there will be a lot more game time to be had.

We have at least 18 outfield players.
19 if you count Palmer, which I think makes sense.
If we bring in Phillips as Fernandinho's replacement, that's 20, but obviously he'll be coming as less of a bit part player than Fern.

The only other incoming likely at the moment appears to be Cucurella, and I assume Zinchenko would leave if he arrived.

I would be surprised if one attacker doesn't leave this Summer.

Dreams about Gabby on the right giving space and feeding pinpoint crosses to Haaland is still keeping me up every night. Haaland/Gab/Alvarez might be the most exciting and balanced options of strikers in world football at the moment. My fingers are firmly crossed.

Yep

Pep wants to win all 7 trophies in a season every season that is 68 games, plus travelling and playing catch up for games rearranged. 22 players won't be enough nor will 24. We had the smallest registered squad last season, we aren't in a position to sell quality players.

It is 5 subs next year isn't it?

Yes. So at best 2 by Pep. If we are so lucky.

He means in a game. 11+5.

so its not a 16 man squad?

We are not in a position to lose £100m of player for free. Do you think Pep wanted to sell Sane? If they don't sign a contract we will look to offload them that is 100% certain.

Does he? But the games aren't any longer? So still the same minutes to spread around?
