Yasin Ozcan (now out on loan at Anderlecht)

That's equal to 3 weeks of an injured Rashford!

once we were out the ECL the guy bailed on us . He did play well at times though but was always a temporary move .

Coops has just figured out what a loan is.

I don’t suppose this young man is part of the A-list squad and him going out on loan means we can bring somebody in.

Yeah but we've only just brought him in

[PaulWinch again]

Disasi is the obvious answer if we’re so minded to actually add to the squad. As a centre-half I’m happy with him as an option and he was part of our A squad so he’s not an addition - if I’ve understood correctly.

That’s not how it works. He wasn’t in the A-list last season either, because he didn’t play for us.

But couldn't we tell EUFA that he'd have been part of the A list for this season but the offer from Anderlecht was too good to turn down? Genuine question as I'm unclear on this ruling. I presume we cannot add a single player without selling one, when we have no asensio, rashford, disasi etc this season?

If we're reading it right, it's that we can't have any new players who weren't on last seasons A list unless we have a positive spend on players who were on that list.

So getting money for say, Moreno doesn't help. It also means we can't use Malen or Garcia in Europe unless we have a positive net spend as they weren't on that list last season.

But ironically we could use Disasi if we bought him, presumably.

Jeese that is punitive. I’d assumed it was just total spend from last seasons a-list (ie were already Disasi rashford asensio up but Malen Garcia down) seems mental that the actual players have to be the same…

[Steve67]

I think I am just not getting this. Last year‘s A list contained Rashford, Disasi, Asensio, who are all now gone but surely they can be replaced by Malen and Garcia? Olson has been replaced by Bizot and we have space for one more player as only two of the three outfield players have been replaced?
