Goat, what do you do with a player like Harry Tyrer, who's due to return from loan at Blackpool, where he recorded 12 clean sheets? The club have him recorded as a senior player out on loan, and he's under contract for another year, so should he be listed here, at least until he's sold or loaned out again. I imagine he may make the squad for the friendly with Accrington Stanley on 15 July.

Was about to post the very same thing.

 

[RomanReigns]

you have to assume the michael keane / gueye contract deals will be announced this week

with them being out of contract tomorrow they will surely not want the contract saga to drag out and miss out on money

 

[NeilMorepies]

Has Armstrong been announced as being in the first team squad for next season?

Well he'll be getting splinters in his backside from our bench next season understudying for an ever present Pickford unless we get another keeper in.

Mind you that gives us 16 in the squad that @Goat posted. Looks like we're ready to roll next season! I only half joke - it just goes to show what a bad squad we have been lumbered with that losing so many doesn't make it all that much weaker.

18 first team players according to the website

1 goalie on a free
4 loans

That’s 23 players

Doesn’t look so bleak with 2-4 signings on top of that

Did they name them ? Would be intresting to see which players they are adding on top of Goats

Just Tyrer (and Armstrong, who Goat listed anyway). The rest were here last season.

Gana & Keane are still amongst the '18' on the OS, but of course there's yet to be any official announcement on either as of right now.

Ah OK. Also Gana and Keane are on their list. Not signed yet but I guess must be imminent. DCL not there

Sale or loan of Tyrer, loan of Chermitti and possibly Patterson. Then 4 brought in for fees (or free in case of RB) rest utilising our incoming loan berths. Guesstimate at 22/23 players by end of window in squad if all the. cogs turn right.

23 players wont be enough for a PL season, IMO.

We have to name 20 each week for a PL squad.
