Final squad for 26/27 season till Jan transfer window 27.

25 man squad needs to be registered for the PL campaign.

U21 players can bypass the 25 man squad giving flex if born after 1st Jan 2005.


Current Squad

Goalkeepers:
Rushworth
Wilson
Bentley

Right backs:
MVE
KKH

Centre backs:
Amenda
Thomas
Lati
Woolf
Pinnock

Left backs:
JDS
Mfuni (u21)

Wingers:
Tatsu
Loum
EMC
Gboho

Midfielders:
Rudoni
Eccles
FTT
Grimes
Torp
Hamer
Yirenkyi (u21)

Strikers:
BTA
Simms
Wright
Awoniyi
Cherif (u21)



So at present 28 players with 3 of these u21.

Luke Bell (GK) is 22.

He'll probably go out on loan, but he's still around the squad at the moment.
 
Full house! It's down to wheeling and dealing now.
 
Markelo on his way out by looks of it.
On a plane instead of being in training means one thing
 
What’s that realistically 23?

One of Bidwell and Brau wouldn’t be registered, Rapha wouldn’t either. Markelo off.
 
This is what I would do:

Out - Woolfenden (or Latibeaudiere), Bidwell, Brau, Andrews, Raphael, Markelo, Simms (or 1 of front 3)
In - CB, LB, AM, LW, ST

Which leaves us with:

GK - Rushworth, Dovin, Wilson
CB - Thomas, Amenda, Kitching, Latibeaudiere, New CB
RB - van Ewijk, Kesler-Hayden
LB - Dasilva, New LB
CM - Grimes, Onyeka, Torp, Eccles, Yirenkyi
AM - Rudoni, New AM
RW - Sakamoto, Tchaouna
LW - Mason-Clark, New LW
ST - Wright, Thomas-Asante, New ST

One of the front 3 will go (most likely Simms as he's only got 1 year left on his contract).
One of Latibeaudiere or Woolfenden will be sold (whoever Frank doesn't rate or who we can get the most money for).
 
Will be interesting to see how this develops in the coming weeks.

Strikers:
BTA

Will be more ins and outs so this will change.

Have updated the list with Markelo out and Hamer in.

Currently over by 1 person for the squad.

I put this in another thread, this is my view on how we will hopefully shape up (yes im probably optimistic on striker signing)

This is 27 players, but Yirenkyi is U21, so one player shown cant be registered. I'd guess one of Torp/BTA/Eccles, god i hope not eccles.

Anyone not listed i've assumed wont make our registered 25-man squad. (Bidwell, Brau, Bell, Lati/Woolf, Raphael)
Maybe he will stick with Lati & Woolf and we wont sign another CB, i hope we sign another with PL experience.

Yep I think thats the bare minimum we need.
 
If the rumours are true Wright is not being sold this window
Similarly with Woolf. Seems injuries might have an effect on our outgoing transfers, and therefore impact incomings.
 
There is always January to reinforce, but usually its too late by then if you are in trouble

Need to keep the momentum up and get those 4 deals sorted before the end of the window

I think this validates that we will see one biggish exit before the window is out.

I think Torp, Eccles, BTA is about right as suggestions, but personally would hope it’s Wright moved on to make way for new striker.

Cant see BTA moving on now

Yirenkyi is under 21 so not part of the 25
 
Updated with the 2 strikers pretty much signed and sealed.

We’re now over by 2 senior players.

Obvious candidates to leave are Brau and Raphael.

Now if we see another LB, CB, LW then another 3 have to leave.
 
Anyone know when the squad numbers are confirmed please?

Squads have to be registered shortly after each transfer window closes.
 
Currently over by 2 seniors in the squad.

Likely to come in is another CB, LB and LW.

So potentially we will be over by 5.

Likely departures before 25 man squad signed off.

Brau
Woolf
Raphael

But who are the other 2? Bidwell and Eccles?

2 over the limit.. Brau will surely go, Woolf likely also. If another player comes in Rapha probably goes on loan.

Rapha won’t be anywhere near the squad even if nobody comes in. He will either be sold or loaned.
