Our present squad

Shaping up very nicely now. Competition and back up in all positions with good young players in the mix. Really like the way we have gone about our business this summer unlike previous years.
Could agree more and Sage doesn't sound like a manager who crys if he hasn't got players as back up and equal to first team ability
 
We are signing ourselves into a potential problem with the squad size. It appears already have 27 players over the 21 age limit and with the possibility of another two signings on the way the Club will have to ship out players or play them in the Academy team. JRS looks on the way out and I would think Whitworth will be sent on loan again. Disasi is almost in the bag and offers are out for senior midfielders. So who else is to go to make way for the new signings if they come in? Munoz is in demand but may want European football. We haven’t got adequate replacements if we get big offers for Sarr or Wharton and anyway the fans would not be happy. Devenny may go but he does have his uses especially in penalty shootouts. It’s going to be an interesting 10 days and Im sure SP doesn’t want to be banging the phone an hour before the window closes.
 
I am sure they know the rules regarding squad size and requirements. They may also have different players in the Europa/League Cup squads. 15 games in EPL from Sep to Dec. And at least 7+ games in Europa/Cup, so if too many players they could have a couple who only play in the league and others who only play in the cups. Last year we only registered 23 senior squad players so makes a change.
