Glad to see our #1 Goalkeeper, wearing the #1 shirt...very sensible No idea why JD likes #44, makes him look like a fringe player |  | |
cornishnick added 18:46 - Jul 28
Why no number 2. Is it because we're not sh1t anymore?! |  | |
marvellous added 18:49 - Jul 28
#18 is available for a Bonne return 🤔 |  | |
arc added 18:56 - Jul 28
Neither KVY or Janoi wants #2? Or shall we start silly rumours about the imminent signing of an RB? I like a midfielder #5, that always shakes things up a bit :-) |  | |

No.43 still available then. Wink wink, nudge nudge. |  | |

Ed Sheeran, number 17 to score against Bolton 😜 |  | |
Edmundo added 19:45 - Jul 28
Perfect sized squad. Assuming El Miz goes on loan, I can see one more senior player... not going to start speculation about who. |  | |
MickMillsTash added 19:52 - Jul 28
Burns, Ladapo, Jackson, Harness, Chaplin IF they all score 10 or more we will be competing - can't see many more goals in the rest of the squad - maybe Morsy, Judge Jules Aluko ? Im not sure the squad can take too many injuries to the first 5 Preseason Nerves? |  | |
SickParrot added 21:33 - Jul 28
It really bugs me that players have unnecessarily high numbers. 27 players have been given numbers but Donacien who, injuries permitting, should play most weeks is 44. It gives the impression that we have a much bigger squad than we really do and encourages this ill informed idea that we've spent loads of money on new players. |  | |
Eeyore added 22:00 - Jul 28
So any guesses about the starting 11 for Saturday ??? |  | |
Wallingford_Boy added 22:29 - Jul 28
Those top XI plus Donacien starting then |  | |
RaymondovicBlue added 23:39 - Jul 28
Wallingford - hello neighbour (I live in Abingdon and North Reading - long story!) . I think you mean those top TEN plus Donacien starting? (either that or we have an ace up our sleeves of sneaking an extra player onto the pitch!) |  | |
Eeyore added 00:20 - Jul 29
Evans and Chaplin on the bench ? |  | |
Fatboy added 01:09 - Jul 29
Donacien used to wear 2 but prefers 4. He chose 44 because Chambers had the 4 shirt. |  | |
pg888 added 02:05 - Jul 29
18 saved for bonne job done |  | |
EssexBlue11 added 05:51 - Jul 29
I can see Aluko playing instead of Harness and Leigh instead of Leif just because of match fitness and time with the squad. |  | |

We have to give the EFL a squad of up to 22 players, goalkeepers and players under21 at the start of the calendar year don't count. There are 27 names above. Exclude Ed Sheehan and the goalkeepers and that brings it down to 23. Exclude Humphreys and John-Jules for being under age and we have one slot left … George Hirst? |  | |
LondonBlue73 added 09:17 - Jul 29
I have no inside knowledge whatsoever..... but I reckon Penny and or Harper go out on loan plus Idris and we create two more spaces - Hirst and Celina. Both would be the cherry on top of the icing on what is already a great cake. Better squad than last year and a team that's worked together over 7 months getting used to KM style. Must be one of if not the best squad in the league. As supporters we must stay strong in moments of wobble but definitely believe this is our season to get back up. Excited |  | |

Ipswichbusiness. Ur right as things stand, but I'd expect at least one of those over 21 will likely leave, whether permamently or on loan so likely to be more than 1 spot available im the 22 man squad. |  | |
blues1 added 09:59 - Jul 29
Oh, plus hayes unlikely to be named in the 22 |  | |
Ipswichbusiness added 12:01 - Jul 29
Matt Penny looks surplus to requirements. |  | |
