Liverpool have a smaller squad than all 3 of the sides you decided to compare. How does that work then?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Ive been abit naughty, faith, and set a trap, and batty fallen for it.


You only allowed 25 players in a squad for the prem plus u21 players

Wolves for example have 22 players registered for the premier League, plus the U21s which dont count

Skum only have 19, yes a few of the u21, you deffo class, has first teamers, but you catch my drift.

Poor land

I'll rephrase things to match the Prem rules:

We can't go into the Prem with a small squad.
We don't have the resources of a Liverpool or City
or Chelsea. And we can't afford to lose players
to injury along the way, and not have some level
of built-in back up plan.

Looks like we'll get away with it this season.

We won't in the Prem.

Let’s take CF where you have listed Piroe as our option for next season, would you prefer to spend £30m on one additional CF or £15m each on 2?

I'd prefer the club hit on a solid, Prem level striker.

Too many misses last time round under Orta.



As much as I liked Rodrigo, 30 mill on him was poor.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I think it's safe to assume that we would like the signings the club make to be good and that we don't have many misses.

I'd like to buy good players. Price doesn't mean quality, just look at Man utd the last decade or so.
You only get one first chance to get the team good enough not to get relegated. We probably wont finish 9th next year so well be hanging in the bottom half, which is fine.
Two years from now i'd like to be competing for top ten. So the 49ers or whoever our owners will be have a lot of work to do.

Do Chelsea really only have a squad of 25 players?
Seems like at least double that.

Don't think the Premier league check their top 6 as much as they should, and if/when they do not a lot happens!..

The Premier league is already what Trump wants America to be!..

Actually only registered 20 players, over age of 21.

Obviously quite a few u21 players are top class too, but why do you think champ clubs, have to wait till end of transfer windows ? They waiting too see who are available because they havent been registered.
