My biggest concern is we go into next season with a small squad like last season. It went OK because we went out of both cups and only had the league to focus on but a couple of injuries and it was clear our squad was too small. We need to be able to rotate players without the quality taking too much of a hit.
Surely your only allowed to have a squad of 25 or whatever the limit is anyway ?

I dunno how many we actually have but it’s not as if the Sky 6 have like 40 man squads is it ? They just have balanced squads of quality whilst we haven’t.
Bring back Jonathon !

And taking last season, DM only really used his preferred XI plus a few others anyway. I doubt he used more than 18 out of the available 25. He's not
really into rotation or giving yoof a chance. Regardless of what he says when he's gurning to the media.

U21’s can play without being in the 25 squad. Which of course helps the Sky 6 who hoover up all the young talent.
Ffs we had 2 keepers named on the bench for a large part of the season.

There reason for that Towie was the new concussion rules, I think,.... but might be mistaken, the numbers of subs went up to nine from seven including a 3rd keeper....but I'm not 100% sure

So because Leicester are in for him we can't ? Didn't this happen with Fofana as well ?
Surely if Moyes wants him we should be do all we can to get him ? Last I heard Salzburg only want £23m for him , which I would have thought was on the cheap side being as Moyes has £35m for a striker it is reported , so whats the problem ?

But has it occurred that, even if this speculation is true, maybe he prefers to join Leicester. ?

No other clubs were doing that as far as I know.

Maybe , maybe not , who knows , but surely it's more than likely going to be all about who pays the best wages at the end of the day .
