The_Steve Posted August 16 Share Posted August 16 The priority was reducing squad size so now I imagine this will happen today or tomorrow once Cam signs for Southampton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CVByrne Posted August 16 Share Posted August 16 A Striker going doesn't free up space for a defender. This signing is tied to Carlos leaving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think that's a thing, that you can only replace someone with a player in the same position. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squad size is just a number isn't it? I know balance is key but there aren't any rules per se for which positions get a certain number of "slots" for example. At least thats how I understand it.

The only rules to comply with are that it cannot contain more than 17 players who don't meet "home grown" rules. https://www.premierleague.com/news/102383 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Rich192 Posted August 16 Popular Post Share Posted August 16 This is a far more important signing than an attacker, and should absolutely be the priority when Archer goes. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To complete with SCR we need to stay in line with the budget for player costs, id imagine from a wage perspective it sort of means one out before one it (else you risk not registering someone in your european squad) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
