Tel is U21. The rule is you need to be under 21 at the start of the calendar year for the upcoming season. Worth noting Kudus appears twice on your list also

Just find the whole U21 qualifying age totally confusing as under PL rules for home growns they use the end of the season as a cut off point which gives Odobert home grown status but he was over 21 on 1st Jan 2026 his birthday was in Nov 25.
So Tel does not take up a space until next season but in January when Simons is likely to be back he will want a spot.

Then Kulusevski and Simons

I agree Takai and Sarr go.

My point is that if Kulu and Simons are both likely to return before winter (Kulu definitely is) - or to make room for say Gapko - I would drop Robertson instead (give him cup games and a coaching role), as we have 3 other LBs.
