....give it to whoever actually paid their "subs" the week before. Or anyone who gave people a lift to away games. | |

…2 of whom are injured. Edmundson was injured when we bought him. We need another CB and probably another CM too. | |

He’s going to have a hell of a job on his hand keeping this squad all happy - feels bloated already. Anyone else likely to head out? | |

Phil, don't suppose you know how that fits with the squad list thing? Aren't we right at the limit already? | |

I wonder if it indicates they'd allow Nsiala to move on once fit. No idea whether there's interest though. Kenlock and McGavin, of course, although I've not heard of any interest in them. They're not going to play for the U23s this season, let alone the first team. Dobra will go on loan, seems all but decided that he'll go to one of the interested parties from what I hear. And from what Kieron says Clements will go as well and then Morris in January. | | | |

I believe they can swap players between first team and U23s. So if nobody comes in for Jackson or Nolan and we need a slot we can just demote them. | |

Reading between the lines, Nsiala's injury may be a bad one. | | | |

Not checked, to be honest. What is it 20 outfield players aged over 21? Depends on how old the incoming addition is, of course. | | | |

Don't see Nolan leaving, he's injured currently but has been included in the first team squad and will most likely be cover for Carroll/Evans/Harper along with Humphries | | | |

You submit a final list when the transfer window shuts and can't change it without special dispensation. | |

I believe this is the case (pedantically i think it's 21 and over). We're at capacity with VINCENT-YOUNG Donacien COULSON Penny BURGESS EDMUNDSON Woolfenden Nsiala EVANS HARPER Carroll Nolan BURNS EDWARDS FRASER Aluko Chaplin BONNE Pigott Norwood Barry and Dobra are "under age" This doesn't include Jackson, Kenlock or McGavin So if we are to bring in a defender we'll have to move someone on or leave them out of the squad but continue to pay them. Nsiala or perhaps Donacien seem the obvious contenders. | |

Thanks. Might be that other players are moved on or left out of the squad if we brought in another who is 21 or over. | | | |

You'd think they'd be hoping to get Jackson a new club in the next week as he must be earning a decent wage. I suspect a loan seems most realistic. Whilst Kenlock and McGavin may be "wasted" wages i'm guessing they don't earn the same level of wage. | |

Until the next transfer window opens, obviously, not fixed for the season. So if any players are injured and likely to be out to December the pack could be re-shuffled and they could always come back in then. | | | |

Do we know what Edmundson's injury is ? unless either him or Toto has a long term injury , would think a defensive midfielder might be more important , unless we are going 3 at the back Burgess looks like skipper potential rather than Evans | | | |

Agree, I think they'd want those three out if they can move them on. | | | |

Yeah, in the very specific scenario that any of our injuries are nailed on to last until near enough the next transfer window, we could leave them out and recruit a replacement. But I don't think there's any suggestion that Toto or Norwood are looking at that kind of lay-off and we're not going to base our squad planning around that. If we recruit again, we'll shuffle someone out the door, I assume. | |

Bloated? The conversation on here for weeks is a that we need another CB, CM and we’re not entirely happy with RB. With Dobra going out and the squad supplemented with a few under 23s, how is it bloated? Squad is 25, right? (I think Ed Sheeran might get dropped too) [Post edited 25 Aug 2021 18:01]

Think we are at max numbers but not 100% - but with Edmundson, Burgess, Woolfenden and Nsiala and Cook not playing 3 at the back we surely don’t need another one? | |

Another one in would suggest Woolfenden, Donacien and Nsiala are not considered good enough to be first choice back up. Once Edmundson is fit, you would expect the new one, Burgess and him to play the majority of games leaving the others for cover when needed. That being so, I wouldn't be surprised to see 1 or even 2 of them moving on. Jackson would be the main one we must want to shift. | |

Ah, you meant at the back. I agree. Donacien is an ample 5th choice - I think we’re a midfielder light so wouldn’t be surprised to see a CM who can operate at CB if called upon ala Crooks. | |
