Thanks. I suspected that is the case. So we can even afford to register Bissouma and Solomon, if needed

But what about the CL squad? That's a more complicated matter. Things were tight before RKM was added to the squad and we're top heavy with attacking players. I've got a 23 man squad but got there by dropping Takai, Dragusin, Davies, Kulu & Biss. To revisit in January.

That seems reasonable.

I'm worried that we're light on defenders. If VdV or Romero pick up an injury we're down to bare bones immediately.

Davies in, Odobert out?

I hate that but feels probably more likely (or less risky) Imagine then use some u21s on bench and give them minutes if we can. (kinda sucks to have loaned out Moore, donely, olussesi, could all have gotten minutes with draw we got, but that's hindsight)

Olusesi is still with us. It was Adjayi that went out on loan.

Ah, thanks, thought he'd gone out too

Or we use this loophole that I think does mean you name Vic, austin + academy (ie archer) so get extra squad space If Vic is injured, you can replace him even if would take you over HG limits. Or at least that's what I took from below: bsky.app/profile/bgas... Feels sordid.. But.. Needs must?
