It's Quiet 17 - Glory Thread

Not so sure that's the main reason. The new cap won't apply to U21 players, which all the ones the club has recently sold are, so they could still be loaned.

It looks more like the club have changed their strategy and are going for a straight sale with a buy-back rather than a loan. The benefits have already been highlighted by a few, seems to be a good shift.
I think it makes sense to start doing this
The sell on amd buy back covers us amd we can then watch the players develop like Douglas luiz and angelino
These rules are being designed to stop us and Chelsea but long term it will strengthen us financially
 
Playing 3 at the back is feasible & we are likely to play 60 odd games so how do you know hes not going to pick up injuries as he is getting older. I know the one v Real was a twisted ankle but a major hamstring tear would be huge. The problem would be the big games. Also been stated that he wants to finish his career at Sheffield utd

Can’t see us playing 3 at the back that much. Walker isn’t going to move to Sheffield United anytime soon.
 
I haven't read the last 20 or 30 pages.

To me, the sales today mean one or two things.

1. Have we sailed too close in the FFP wind buying Grealish, Alvarez, Haaland Phillips, and a bollock has been dropped?

2. (More likely) We're going after the Iron in the Fire that @tolmie's hairdoo mentioned and we're giving up some talent to get funds for negotiating wriggle room?

Bellingham being bought this summer, and loaned back to Dortmund for the season???

Why would we ever buy Bellingham only to loan him back?
 
Ederson - Ortega - Carson
Walker - Cancelo
Dias - Laporte
Stones - Ake
Cucurella - Zinchenko
Rodri - Phillips
KDB - McAtee
Silva - Gundogan
Mahrez - Palmer
Foden - Grealish
Haaland - Alvarez

Yeah sounds right. You are including Ake, Zinch and Bernardo who are supposedly rumoured to leave, but I think are going nowhere, so that could well end up being our squad.

Light in attack, and room for one more NHG or HG player, and I fully expect us to fill that with a winger. Regardless of Palmer and Mcatee's inclusion.

Don't think it means any of them things, just think we've decided it's the best way forward for adademy product development, and generating general income.
