When you say can be transferred, is it within the constraint of being banned from operating in the transfer market?
Sorry for the pedantic question - just curious

What? we're banned from buying not selling

But yeah B.O.D I guess it depends on loan or full sales or a mix of both.

If loans its looking likely tomori, most believe kenedy and zappa will be loaned too.

Maybe the sale of bakayoko/drinkwater.

What were Chelsea thinking buying Drinkwater? Not a Chelsea type of player?

Though, I'd suggest Everton get him...He's be perfect for them to push them up the table

Not good enough to be a starter, but not bad enough to have been ostricised like he has been, very strange signing. Reckon he could have been a decent role player. In the games he did play he played well.

Darn it, forgot you guys are in CL!

My, my what a tough ask, Frankie boy!

Top 4 and CL too? Really a hard job it is to just get top 4!

luckily it doesn't matter too much this year

Blackman
Zappacosta
Tomori
Omerou
Hector
Baba
Bakayoko
Drinkwater
Kenedy
Piazon
Van Ginkel

Yeah the ban is on us registering new players

A ban on market activity would punish other clubs who want to buy or loan our players

GOALKEEPERS: Kepa Arrizabalaga, Willy Caballero, Jamie Cumming ( loan )

DEFENDERS: Marcos Alonso, Cesar Azpilicueta, Andreas Christensen, David Luiz, Emerson, Fikayo Tomori (loan) Davide Zappacosta (loan), Kurt Zouma

MIDFIELDERS: Ross Barkley, Tiemoue Bakayoko, (sold ) Danny Drinkwater (binned) , Jorginho, N'Golo Kanté, Mateo Kovačić, Mason Mount

FORWARDS: Tammy Abraham, Michy Batshuayi, Oliver Giroud, Kenedy, Kasey Palmer ( loan) Pedro, Christian Pulisic

not sure kenedy goes anywehere

team for united

Kepa
azpi Zouma Luiz Emerson
Kova Jorginho
Pedro Barkley Pulisic
Tammy

eventually

Reece james - Zouma Rudiger Emerson
Kante Kovacic / jorginho
CHO Mount Pulsic
Tammy

RLC to come in at some point

I think Abraham could have a big season and has been over looked by many.

yep me too, suits 4 2 3 1 better than the other 2, though the other 2 are a great option together

I'd be surprised if we got rid of both Bakayoko AND Drinkwater. Not that the one remaining (presumably Drinkwater) would be used too much, but because under Lampard's system we are likely to play 2 defensive midfield players. And right now we have just 3 players, Kovacic, Jorginho and Kante, covering those 2 positions.

We have a lot of other midfield players in the squad - Mount, Pulisic, Barkley, RLC, CHO, Willian, Kenedy, Pedro - but they are all attacking midfield players. If we get rid of both Bakayoko and Drinkwater, and then there is an injury/suspension to any of Kovacic, Kante or Jorginho, we could be in trouble.

Rudiger and Zouma are both incredibly physically strong defenders (not to mention excellent in the air), but I would still think Luiz would be a first team player throughout this year. I think Rudiger and Zouma will be vying for the other position alongside Luiz.

I bags Hector for The Owls
