From all that going we would need a RB + RW + CM

13 out + 3 in.

Can’t see it personally, too short in areas if we get injuries, espically strikers,gk, wingers, I just don’t see us selling that many, our squad is too big but I like how we have depth to it too

Carlo says 31, the OS doesn't name Pennington and Connolly, so they gone.
 
 
Hope you dont mind, but might I suggest a proposal to group according to the new 433 formation?
The "bag" of central midfielders doesnt quite make sense to me in the new formation, and regrouping imo gives a better overview of squad depth.

#1 - GK
Jordan Pickford (HG)
João Virginia (UA)
**Jonas Lössl

#2 - RB
Séamus Coleman
*Jonjoe Kenny (HG)

#3 - LB
Lucas Digne
Niels Nkounkou (UA)

#5 RIGHT CB
Yerry Mina
Michael Keane (HG)

#4 LEFT CB
Mason Holgate (HG)
Jarrad Branthwaite (UA)

#6 - DM
Allan
Jean-Philippe Gbamin
*Fabian Delph (HG)
***Muhamed Bešić
***Beni Baningime (HG)

#8 - CM
Abdoulaye Doucouré
Gylfi Sigurðsson (HG)
*Tom Davies (HG)

#10 - AM
André Gomes
*Bernard

#7 - WIDE RIGHT
James Rodríguez
Alex Iwobi (HG)
**Theo Walcott (HG)

# 11 - WIDE LEFT
Richarlison
Anthony Gordon (UA)
***Yannick Bolasie

ST
Dominic Calvert-Lewin (HG)
*Moise Kean (UA)
**Cenk Tosun
***Sandro Ramírez

Naturally, some players cover multiple roles. (Iwobi, Gylfi, Richy, Bernard etc), but this is how I interpret it based on first 4 games.
Stars depict "leave-factor" as I see it (development loan or transfer)
This leaves us with a need for DC due to injuries, but also potentially a striker or wideman if Richy gets pushed up front.
Personally, I think we need a proper offensive rightback to provide width and wide threats, as both James in the league and Iwobi in LC seems to favour, and is allowed to push into central areas.
Also pinpoints an abundance of defensive minded midfielders with no future.

It's a nice idea but I won't ever accept that CBs can't play either side!

Combine CBs
Combine CMs and ACM

Basically I agree with moving Richarlison to LW and separating our left and right wingers
