Ok bit stunned by this. Am I missing a really obvious reason we don't use one of the youth as a squad player, if that is what Evans is being bought for? Would an academy youngster not count as home grown, and enable us to buy another quality non-home player to add to Champions league squad? Is Mangala really going?

Are any of them good enough?

That would mean going into the season with Kompany, Stones, Otamendi, Tosin and Denayer. Denayer looks to be off so four players for three positions.

Because they're not good enough/not ready yet.
 
Long time member, infrequent poster.
If this is the way forward we might as well close the academy.
All these posts about Diaz, foden etc, under pep they will be lucky to get 3 hours first team experience in the prem.
