Dont know anything about the bloke

with Solanke coming in and Royal going out we are at 17/17 foreign trained and 9/4 association trained players

takeaway Reggy, Solomon, Lo Celso, JSB and then assume Phillips goes on loan and Forster is not registered

gets you to 14/17 foreign trained and 6/4 association trained, so two of those would count towards the foreign trained quota effectively making it 16/17

so one spot remaining, and apparently we want two more in

I thought we had 3 lined up. POK maybe?

I think he might not be club trained? need to be here 3 seasons starting aged 15 and I think he left when he was 17

i was thinking about the club trained thing cause arent you supposed to have 4 of those

You need 4 to name a full squad. We'd just not have a full squad in the Europa

you can have 4 you don't need to

they're bonus spots

i seeee

makes sense. no idea why they bang on about 'homegrown issues' so much then

Me neither, especially if it means spending decent money on players we don't really need

What you think about Madueke’s fit though Chris?

Whenever I've seen Madueke he doesn't seem to work hard enough of the ball. I think he'd drive Ange mental. Definitely exciting going forward tho

I think he's interesting, I liked him a lot at PSV. has some really nice traits and the kind of profile we're lacking

not really been that impressed with him at Chelsea though - scored some nice goals but beyond that don't really love his end product and decision making. Felt like he was just as much of a headless chicken as Mudryk tbh but because he actually looks good technically he gets less grief

they're obviously a mess though so it's hard to guage. I'd be intrigued if we signed him but not one I'm particularly hoping for

Do you think our wingers work hard off the ball? Kulu aside I don’t think any of them do personally

poor mans Bakayoko

I think Son and Werner are ok

Brennan is noticeably poor defensively
