The free agent market can throw up all sorts of intriguing possibilities.

You usually see 'Best Fee Agent XIs' around, and often they seem capable of at least staying up in the Premier League.... Edited by TheBigToePunt (12 Sep 2023 1.11pm) You highlight all the reason to avoid. Highly paid and unmotivated.

Ends the uncertainty over Ferguson. Why did the club keep it quiet?

Premier League News Each squad contains no more than 17 players who do not fulfil the "Home Grown Player" (HGP) criteria. The rest of the squad, up to a total of 25 players, must be "Home Grown". Each club's squad list is below, as well as an additional list of each club's registered Under-21 players who are eligible over and above the squad limit of 25 players. (For more on "Home Grown Players" and an explanation on the Under-21s, see the bottom of the page.)

Interesting to see Eze's younger brother in the youth list. I wonder if he's any good, or just a sweetener for his family.

According to those 'lovable rogues' at the bbc, there are 9(nine) clubs who have not got 25 players listed in their 25 man squad, wait for it . . . Chelsea & Man City are 2 of them, Really?

Pep likes a small squad. He prefers players who are versatile and can play or be trained to play in more than one position, so he doesn't need like for like cover in every position. As for Chelsea, how many of their players were still under 21 at the beginning of this year. Like our Ahamada, they'll be in the U21 list even if they are regular 1st team squad players.

Edited by doombear (14 Sep 2023 10.45am) Fully understand all of that DB, it's just, well, Chelsea! I mean, how many squillions of players have they got & ONLY 20 in their submitted list? Ah well, still a basket case of a club.
