Just a quick one, since we are definately signing tchouameni, both Bellinghams, mbappe, carvalho etc. Who do you think leaves to accommodate? I had Origi, Karius, Woodburn, van den burg, poss minamino

Still think we'll struggle to fit them in.

Just a guess,

Origi - absolute legend. Thank you so much for the memories.

Minamino - thank you so much for playing a massive role in winning us 2 cups this year. Wish you the best in your career.

Neco - flying at Fulham. Wish him all the best and hope he realizes his potential.

Phillips - when our season was falling apart last season cometh the man in our hour of need. Wish you all the success in the world.

Oxlade-Chamberlain - man, if it wasn't for injuries what could you be. Never left us down and you seem like a great guy in the dressing room. Always laughing and joking. Honestly I laughed out loud in the interview with Barnes when he asked him and Jones what they want for the season. Jones was talking about establishing himself as a first team player etc. And chamberlain mimic the same answer. Very funny. Hope he stays injury free with a new club and shows the world what he can do.

Possibles:

Kieta - I still believe in this guy and the players seem to like him but the Eds do highlight some personal issues. If he goes, I hope it all goes well. He s got the talent.

I think we will sign one and lose one of Salah/ Mane. Honestly it will be gutting. True legends of our club. I think guys, if one leaves, I implore you not to turn on them. These guys have given so much. We should wish them well. I hope I'm wrong on this.

Possibly Firmino. I hope not because he's still got it and is a pressing machine. In the Salah or
Mane category. I could not thank him enough and wish him the best more.

Joe Gomez - honestly he was looking great in rb cover and can cover cb as fourth choice. I hope we can convince him to stay.

Milner - Age is not just a number. You lose speed, fitness. Your body just can't handl. Oh James Milner- yeah age is just a number with that freak. Hope he stays until retirement and joins coaching staff when he does retire. Starting in the youth leagues.

I think these possible sales highlight the massive improvement the club has made. I remember hoping x y z would leave. Now we re selling players I like and I have zero issue with any of these staying and hope some do. Especially the possibles.

Other than Origi and Karius, who are definitely going, I think Neco, Ox, Woodburn, Phillips will go.

Possibly Milner will go, I think Keita will stay.

If Mane and Salah don’t renew then a decision has to be made. I think Firmino will probably renew.

I think it will be between Gomez and Van Der Berg on who goes, as Klopp will still want a fourth choice CB.

PL registered squad at current:

Home Grown (7 out of 8):
Kelleher (Club Trained), Gomez, Trent (Club Trained), Henderson, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Milner, Phillips (still registered despite being on loan) .

Non home grown (17 out of 17):
Alisson, Adrian, van Dijk, Matip, Konate, Robertson, Tsimikas, Fabinho, Thiago, Keita, Salah, Mane, Jota, Firmino, Diaz, Minamino, Origi

Notable not registered:
Karius, Jones (U21), Elliot (U21), Neco Williams (U21)



Karius will go, but that doesn't free up a slot as he was de-registered in January to make room for Diaz.
Ox will go. That frees up room for another Home Grown player. This spot will likely be taken by Jones, who isn't U21 from next season and thus needs to be registered (unless we loan him out or something) . Unlike Ox, he's also club trained, which is important for the Champions League squad.
Origi and Taku will leave, that frees up 2 slots which can be taken by any incoming player.

So without any further departures, we'd have room for one more HG player and two non-HG players in the PL squad. For the CL, the HG player would have to also be club trained. Only realistic option there is the returning Neco Williams, who like Jones, requires registry from next season if he's staying. Rumoured to not want to stay.

I assume Phillips will leave, that gives room for another HG player. Likewise if Gomez or Milner go, although the latter is being linked with a new deal.

If we sign more than 2 non HG players, current first team players have to leave to make room.

Hi something red, just a clarification: the homegrown player number of 8 is not a maximum, you can have any number of homegrown players (in fact bigger is better for registration purposes) . It is the non HG players that has a maximum.

Sorry if you already knew that, but it was a bit unclear in your writing.

Mane - can see him going to bayern.
Bobby - love the guy but surely people can see its time for him to move on. hardly fit now
Milly - stays for 1 more year and joins the coaching staff
Joe - hope he stays
Ox - has to move his career is stagnant
Keita - on borrowed time that guy. massive flop for me
Origi - could of been a great, given the chance. but will always be a legend for us
Curtis Jones- not really sure he has the potential at this level. maybe 1 more year
Karius - thank god he won't be in net against Madrid again. Terrible
Adrian - really didn't see why he got a years contract last summer. get him gone and bring a kiddie through
Just my thoughts on these lot.
