It's Quiet 18 - Wanna ring the bell?

[Gabriel]

It is not a smaller squad than last year. It is exactly the same size.

But also younger, fitter, and hungrier.

Paulinho is going to Bayern from Fulham for a 60 million deal.

Would they have done a deal with us for 60 million?

Technically it's 1 member stronger.. but KDB is injured.

No, because we wouldn’t have offered it.

Depth till KDB gets back? (no idea if Phillips, Bobb or Gomez will be used tbh,)

To all ITK, is watching Sky transfer show until 11pm going to be worth it, or do I go to the pub as usual

 

[bell_mcfc]

Ederson/Ortega/Carson

Stones/Lewis/Akanji/Walker/Dias/Gvardiol/Ake

Rodri/Phillips/Nunes/Kovacic/KDB

Foden/Grealish/Bernado/Doku/Gomez/Bobb

Haaland/Alvarez

Very happy with that. Pep likes smaller squads.

Go to the pub and watch it on their telly!

Our bench for the Champions league final was:

Walker,
Foden,
Phillips,
Laporte,
Alvarez,
Gomez,
Mahrez,
Palmer,
Lewis,
Ortega,

For Fulham it will likely be:

Ake,
Gomez,
Lewis,
Phillips,
Nunes,
Doku,
Alvarez,
Bobb,
Ortega,

This is missing Stones and De Bruyne through injury but we have gone from 5 proven senior players to 1 (Alvarez).

Hopefully Doku and Nunes hit the ground running like Kovacic but it's naive to assume that is guaranteed. If they do then we are at about equivalent strength once Kevin is back.
