That’s based on last years numbers which they struggled with
Talk they will sell Ter Stege

La liga rules are if you are over your limit you can only bring in players if they are offset by players leaving.
Garcia is €25m which is amortised so probably €5m a year + wages.
The 2 going out are about €11m not amortised so balances garcia.
Rashford is wages so barca have to sell around €30m worth of players to balance it out (they'd be losing the players wages aswell).

Have you ever actually watched him play? Check his stats aswell, there is a reason Alonso wants to sell him without even properly looking at him.

They play him on the right despite him being a LWF. The problem is that Real are overstocked with LWFs, they have Vinicius, Mbappe and Rodrygo, all of whom prefer to play off the left. Last season Rodrygo mostly played on the right hence the fall off in his numbers. It's not a true reflection of his abilities.

He is a classy player
Just, as you say, real have fudged their squad with so many left siders

If we're playing 2 games a week, you really need to be rotating both FBs for mid-week games. It's the most physically demanding position on the pitch.

No one does that in real life, only on football manager.
Liverpool and Emirates Marketing Project come close, with the back up player playing appx 30%. Liverpool have the luxury of theirs being Liverpool through and through (Bradley) and Tsimikas who seems content to play every now and then.
Emirates Marketing Project similarly have Ake who seems content with that.

We don't - Udogie, Porro and Spence will want good game time. There isn't space for a fourth. Davies is our fourth that's content with being bit part. KWP and the man, the legend, the Cirkin have been mentioned - but they don't offer more than Davies.
I suspect we'll see VdV there on occasion. Danso is more than capable at CB. VdV about enter his Verts phase.

For VdV and his hamstrings a more defensive LB role may make more sense than playing LB under Ange. Both Porro and Spence can play as the more attacking full back on the right with both Kudus and Kulusevski being a good fit for inverting from the right wing.

We do also have Gray. I know people want him to play midfield, but if we get MGW/another and a new DM (as has been rumoured) there will be a lot of competition in midfield and using Gray as a full back in some games may be good.

Along then with Davies we do have options. GB may overstate the point a bit, but I think we need to rotate there. Having options is only truly useful if they're players the manager trusts to do a good job there allowing for some rotation even in some more difficult circumstances.

Poch used to rotate Trippier and Davies in a lot, to keep Walker and Rose fresh and injury free.

If we dont think Davies is up to it, i would def prioritise getting someone like Mitchell in

And Trippier got frustrated and wanted to leave because there isn't space for four first team regular level full backs.
