Home grown (etc) rules ?

Sorry for the stupid question....just trying to get my head round this.....whats stopping us signing De Bruyne and work out a loan deal for a guy like Zuculini before the window shuts? As it would be a loan deal we wouldnt have to worry about the signing impacting on Zuculini's value....is there a closing date where all players need to be under the final 25 man squad? thanks
 
If we bring in another non HG player I can still see one of Fernando, Fernandinho, Navas or Nasri going
 
You all seem to be under the impression that there will be no more departures after Joveric & Dzeko leave.

I'm not sure about that at all.For example if all goes well and KDB rocks up, Nasri or Navas might decide they don't want to hang around and there are plenty of rumours about Nasri to Juventus (if Pogba comes???).
 
Would much rather navas go over nasri ...*holds back navas rant*

Nasri still proves to be a match winner at times and watching him bang in the breakthrough goal in Rome to help send us through to the last 16 after everyone had written us off was something special. However i cant see pellegrini letting navas go especially with our shortage of out-and-out wingers.

Kelechi i think will make the 17 man squad, i cant see us going into champs league with just 2 strikers plus sterling. This leaves us one space providing we sell dzeko unless we shift more players. IMO fernando should be shifted and De bruyne & Pogba brought in.

I agree. I like Navas but what he brings to the side both Sterling and Kelechi now also bring to the side (pace, direct running, etc). Nasri is an all round better footballer and would be the one I would keep.

Having said that someone on the forum who knows Navas has already said that he's really happy in Manchester, Pellegrini loves him, and he's going nowhere this summer.

Nothing is stopping us. We can even sign De Bruyne and use Zuculini for the August games without registering him in the squad as we don't have to submit our final squad of 25 to either the Premier League or UEFA until the 3rd of September. I doubt Zuculini is causing the hold up with the De Bruyne move to be honest, I think we're just trying to pick out the right PL Loan for him (ie a team with a shortage of midfield players where he's more likely to (a) get game time and (b) be an important player to his team as Lopes and Denayer were last season).

Evans is still only 20 and so can go on the B list i think

Correct, he's been here since he was 6 so would be club trained next year(?). That said I'm not sure he's good enough or ever will be but that's for a different thread.
