Pope - Dubravka - Karius
Trippier - (Livarmento)
Schar - Lascelles
Botman - Dummy*
Burn - Targett
Tonali - Anderson*
Bruno - Longstaff*
Joelinton - Willock
Almiron - Murphy
Barnes - Gordon
Isak - Wilson

23 in the squad with 3 homegrown - Gillespie, (Krafth), Manquillo, Hayden, Hendrick, Fraser need shipping out.
But basically we have space for one more - got to be a CB unless any of those in the squad are outgoing also in my mind

Again it’s left back and right centre back.

But for the 25 man squad (Champ League) you can't fit both unless someone from list above (none of the homegrown) is sold or it's a homegrown player incoming.

Research: Interestingly though, just looked it up, you can register only two goalies for CL so that might make 2 signings possible in a 24 man squad allowing for the additional homegrown spot that can't be taken up...

I think our transfer dealing is done incoming wise.

I don't think so, one more I'd definitely see, maybe 2.

We have Tonali, Barnes and Liv, but that's it, and not a huge intake to be ready for the CL. I guess Gordon is almost a new signing as well though as he didn't play that much last season and I can see him featuring more in this one.

I’m hoping Murphy is ahead of Dummett. For Magdad, I mean Alex not Jacob

Also if you remove Dummett you cash still have back up for Botman with Burn considering both our right backs (mainly Trippier) can play left back and Jacob Murphy could play right back that gives us another space

I liked A. Murphy but thought there were a few instances over preseason he was left sprawling over the turf on his arse, natural for a young defender but not sure Howe will register him ahead of Dummy (just for the experience).

Again with homegrown quotas in the CL if you remove Dummy, Longstaff or Anderson from that list you can't replace them with anyone - it HAS to be homegrown players or you lost the spot. You could have a squad of 21 with no homegrown players or 25 with 4 homegrown or anything inbetween - as we have 3 homegrown players we can only have a 24 man squad:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homegrown_Player_Rule_(UEFA)
The Homegrown Player Rule is a rule for UEFA competitions that was first introduced in 2006–07 season and fully enforced beginning in the 2008–09 season. On top of a maximum 25 players for List A, clubs had to designate a minimum 8 players that were trained by clubs from the same national league, with 4 of them being from the club's own youth system.[1] The rule in turn capped a maximum of 17 foreigners for the club in UEFA competitions.

Dummett was always **** though. He’s been out with serious injuries over last few years and lost what little pace he did have.
Murphy, adding with Miley and Anderson, has stood out. Dummett has never stood out

Yep, he's barely Championship level. More League Two I'd suggest, like Ritchie. But both were given 1 year contracts, so.....

That’s not true. You have to register at least 2 goal keepers. Not only 2.
