It's Quiet 17 - Glory Thread

[g180aj]

Are any of the young keepers good enough to replace Steffan in the squad?

 

[Coatigan]

Palmer & Foden + 2 spaces = Minimum 4 Club Trained
Walker, Stones, Grealish Sterling = 4 Home Grown

Ake, Casron, Steffen, Ederson, Dias, Zinc, Laporte, Cancelo, Rodri, Gundo, KDB, Bernardo, Jesus, Mahrez, Alvarez, Haaland = 16 taken.

1 space. Carson is an easy cut for a B List Keeper. Jesus is prob off at this point. (3 spaces are probably easily made)

FFS, Same shit different year.

Poor Carson, always getting binned. Yet always in the squad. Have to have 3 keepers for the CL 'walker can play there if he has to' doesn't mean you can have just 2. He could leave, or be omitted and kept on as just a coach. SOMEONE has to come in though, we can't go into the season with two keepers even if we wanted to, which we never will. Unless we sign Schmeichel or Hart, that space will be taken. Bazunu as I understand it doesn't qualify as CT.

Jesus MAY be the one. I can't see us losing an attacker without replacing them to make room for a a back-up DM, but who knows.

 

[lol yank]

Every reputable source has said nkunku isn’t moving this year. He will extend and slap a RC in his contract for 2023. Nkunku would be an absolute dream and would be unreal good in the city side but it’s an absolute pipe dream

 

[waspish]

Hope Sterling stays but if he goes hope we don’t sign a replacement and use Edozie from the bench when needed think our squad will be fine if we get the the fullback and midfielder we are after.

Would Ake count as home grown? He was at Chelsea as a youngster.

Trafford, Van Sass, Slicker & Bazunu are all eligible for the B list.

I used the champions league rules are they are tighter. Prem makes no distinction between HG or Club Trained so we're fine there. We have 14 NON HG. so 3 spots for the Premier League. 1 for the Champions League with that list.

 

[blueparrot]

I make it 14 nhg, 6 hg. Which is effectively 16+4. two more arriving puts us one over, regardles of status.

Including Alvarez and Haaland.

edit, broke it down below for clatiy. We'll probably repeat ourselves again though.

Yes, first I got 21 then 22, then when I named them missed Sterling and got 21 again. It’s definitely 22, with Phillips and Cucerella.
So 1, probably Jesus needs to go for those 2 or any 2 in.

Ake is HG

ake is HG, but SS above is including him and carson (and any incoming HG player) in the foreign player section as we are over the 4 limit for the CL.

The end result is always the same, no matter what combination you package up. We have one space. Any more coming in regardless of status, one has to leave.

Sure, that may ve carson or jesus or alvarez on loan or whatever. And whether or not they'l get replaced is all up for debate.

currently, one has to leave for two to arrive.

 

[samuelyeboah]

HG discourse is by far my least favourite type of discourse

 

[TheGoat]

Both equally as important imo
Cover for rodders
And cover for cancello

Competition not cover

 

[foggy1974]

Hair maintenance cost to be included in trf fees

Ffs Uefa will try & ban us again for breaking ffp

 

[WRicko]

Because Cancelo isn't a very good left back, I don't care what MOTD highlights show the vast majority.

His best games have been at left back. Pep wouldn’t play him there if it was an issue and plenty on here agree

 

[TheGoat]

It was Jack Gaughan wasn’t it?

All he said was Arsenal want Zinchenko. I’m sure they also want Foden and De Bruyne too.

 

[Blue_Lightsaber]

No doubt! Unless he has a clause?

I am curious.. do we have any plans on upgrading goalkeeper (maybe moving Steffen on and getting a new #2 or possibly upgrading one of our kids from within) ???

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

All he said was Arsenal want Zinchenko. I’m sure they also want Foden and De Bruyne too.

I doubt they think they have a chance of signing the latter two though.

Nope. I know people think steffen is not good enough. Calm down man you can't judge him by only one match against liverpool. Plus he's the second keeper anyway. He played well last year in the cup games. He doesn't play for like 5 months then you start him in the semis against a ucl finalists. Not fair is it? Speaking of the younger ones. We have two wonderful talent gavin bazunu and james trafford. Both of them impressed in loans. Gavin bazunu is linked with Southampton tho (not sure if loan/permanent) but if carson doesn't extend i think any one of them (bazunu/trafford) will stay with us

 

[wolviedinho]

Nope. Why would they register him?

it’s illegal to be on the sex register and a squad register at the same time.

Bendy was transferred to the convict 11.

 

[wolviedinho]

Sterling back to scouse land now mane is off?

 

[Tevez City]

Just had a text Marc Cucurella done deal , sterling pushing for a move away.

More excited about the 2nd deal
