I just have this terrible feeling deep deep down inside that Lascelles and Shelvey will survive the 1st cull

I think they will and as Roland says above it's very tough as an elite team to get star players in on a backup/reserve basis. Shelvey will do as a back up, Lascelles may do - he seems to have accepted his place as back up and captain motivator. So assuming Schar and Burn are the next two in line we'll only sign one CB in the summer. Would I sell them both, probably yes but can they do jobs for 12 months, again, probably yes. There are others who will certainly be off like Clark and Fernandez in CB and Hayden, Hendrick, maybe the Longstaff's in CM so spaces will be freed up to get 1st teamers in and then look to replace the other deadwood.

Think we're all agreed though they'd be on our lists to go if we have unlimited funds etc. but then probably 18-20 of the first team would be leaving in the summer.

4-6 is exactly what I thought. They KNOW they need 5. 6 is a bonus (and hence the loan option).

22/23 squad:

GK: Dubravka, Darlow, Woodman
RB: Trippier, Krafth
CB: Ndicka, Schar, Burn, Lascelles
LB: Targett, Dummett
CDM: Kamara, Shelvey
CM: Bruno, Paqueta, Joelinton, Willock, Longstaff
LW: ASM, Fraser
RW: Doku, Almiron
CF: Schick/David, Ekitike, Wilson

Squad of 25. Anderson, White, Turner-Cooke, Savage all added to the roster. 6 players signed. Might grab a loan to buy if the right elite player comes available.

Gone - Wood, Hayden, M. Longstaff, Hendrick, Gayle, Murphy, Clark, Fede.

Would ekitike not be in the squad as an under 21 thus creating another space?

Good point on both counts, a better GK would be good. Is Henderson better? What about Nick Pope? How's his season gone?

Ndicka then instead of Schlotterberg. Or some other lad. Just not Phil Jones.

Id rather take a punt on pope, but keepers in **** teams get loads of chances to look good.
