We're in a great position now.
We've essentially got 11 weeks to find ourselves a RB.
Then look to raise a few quid in sales, apart from Jack I wouldn't want any 1st teamers to leave this summer.

When i saw the squad announcement my first thought was about where certain players had been placed i.e. defence or midfield, any whether there was any subliminal meaning? I'm referring to Lewis, O'Reilly and Nunes. So does Pep see Nunes and O'Reilly as midfielders next season? Or did Pep have nothing to do with how the list was presented?Here is a challenge. From the CWC squad construct two EQUALLY matched teams each with 2 subs (leaving out our new third choice keeper). Only using any player once obviously. When you are finished it should be hard to pick a winner if they played each other. Not a first and second team. Different formations are allowed.
Only if you are bored like.

You're probably correct but we know how Pep enjoys his mind games :-)

Never got sent off…
We need a bigger squad than last season and it probably will be after last seasons clusterfuck of injuries and loss of form but your right that one or two will go probably gundo and mcatee .
Oh no no no no.
We have 76 days until we ofter half of a release clause for a RB. And one extra day to offer 10% more.
That is the way.
That leaves us with two senior players we can't register. Well done ;)
Hahaha does it- well I guess that’s why I’m not a director of football then! I just can’t see us having more than 22 senior players next year in the playing squad, but then still think we will bring in a few…. Fire sale
Gonna be a very interesting season next year. Liverpool look so strong with their signings (Wirtz is extremely talented!!) and also their rumoured future signings, Kerkez and Barcola. Arsenal as well if they get Rodrygo and a striker alongside Zubimendi, which is starting to look more likely, will also be ridiculously strong. These two teams are adding top talent to settled good sides.
Feels like we are still in a massive transition phase where we need to sell or loan out at least another 5/6 players before we can bring in the much needed right back. Think the CWC squad is 27 players strong not included Walker and Grealish. So if Pep wants his smaller squad of around 22 players 5 need to be sold and i would think Echeverri and Reiss will surely go out on loan. You then have the question marks over the likes of Khusanov who couldnt even make the bench when Stones and Ake were still injured becoming a player that Pep must now rely on.
Whether we rate them or not the players who are probably leaving were being picked by Pep ahead of the players we will be keeping and relying on next season to challenge for a title. CWC will hopefully give us a bit of an indication of who Pep sees as players he wants to involve next season.

If he is going to Istanbul, can we not do a deal with our CFG colleagues there.
Is there any website where all sales (including revenues, including youth players, loan fees, resale shares, etc.) per season are listed? On Transfermarkt, for example, youth players are listed separately and no revenue is shown for e.g. loans, resale participations. Thank you in advance.

Kyle Walker to Everton, 1 year loan
Jack Grealish possible loan to Napoli
Jack Grealish possible loan to Napoli
We need loans for players who have a future with us, not for the likes of Walker, Grealish, Kabore and Philipps who are obviously no longer required by Pep.
Thing is that we can only loan 6 players so if we waste 4 for players who are going to move anyways then it’s better to loan out the ones with a future. All 4 need to go with number 2 and 4 being the hardest ( number 4 impossible)
