It's Quiet thread 14 - 'do one' edition

[Sleeping_Easy]

With Ake and Torres already in and Koulibaly, Ait Nouri and another looking likely, how does that leave is in terms of the squad quotas?

We're allowed 17 home grown for the PL and we're allowed the same amount in the UCL but 4 of the home grown have to be from the youth system

1. Ederson
2. Cancelo
3. Laporte
4. Otamendi
5. Fernandinho
6. Mendy
7. Zinchenko
8. Rodri
9. KDB
10. Gundogan
11. Bernardo
12. Mahrez
13. Torres
14. Aguero
15. Jesus

Looks like Koulibaly will take Otamendi's spot. That then leaves us 2 spares for a goal keeper and another. With a LB, CM and striker all being mentioned.

I wonder if the media narrative would change if we had KaneEngland captain, sterling and the soon to be creative force in the England team Foden all playing for city.

A few years back we had about 6/7 players in the England squad and quite a few were starters. Nothing will change while they have friends in high places at other clubs.

Weren’t all starters, and certainly not England captain and number 9 though. I’m sure you’re right though, Kane will suddenly ‘always like a dive that lad’ said about him

How much is lot going to cost?

Another 200m so 260 m spend plus we will be selling so call it 200millspend

Maybe Pep thinks Walker, Cancelo, Mendy and Couto (Ake can fill in as LB as well) will be enough for FB positions?

I can't imagine Ake would be worse defensively than Zinchenko, but it would still be nice to have someone who does what Mendy is supposed to do.

Nah, it would be all about Greenwood, Sancho, Rashford at united ... “future of England”

Nope, they’d all get dropped

They’d strip Kane of the captaincy and give it to the best player in the premier league this season

Is de ligt unobtainable? I’m assuming so as never mentioned.
