Squad

From milo on the pod: (Ignoring Scarlett).

We can register 22 players on the A list (max 25, but 4 have to be club trained, we only have Austin). Three of them have to be goalkeepers so we're left with 19 outfield players. Two for every position except one position. 20 outfield players if you include Scarlett.

If we are going for two more attacking players as being linked with I struggle to see how we don't end up with players we can't register for Europe. Will be interesting to see who that ends up being.

Yeah, on the pod the guys were only factoring in the Madds replacement in their thinking. They weren't thinking 2 newbies.

I see it slightly differently as I'm considering VDV more as another backup LB option and Gray as utility for both centre half and full-back along with his core role. I am not selecting Davies as I want the CL to be a learning experience and have no expectations on us doing anything big in the competition. We need to be focusing on the league.

Venom (A), Kinsky (A), Austin (CT)
Porro (A), Udogie (A), Spence (AT)
Romero (A), VDV (A), Danso (A), Takai (A)
Palinha (A), Bentancur (A), Sarr (A), Bergval (A), Gray (AT)
AM New Signing (A), Kudus (A), Winger New Signing (A), Odobert (A), Tel (A), Johnson (AT)
Solanke (AT), Richi (A), Scarlett (B)

Not selected - Davies, Dragu, Kulu, Madds, Biss, Solomon, Gil

If you look closely, I'm one over but do have the 4 association trained and 1 club trained boxes ticked. I'm assuming Milo is right when he stated that Gray can be association trained based on UEFA's definition even though he can't be B-list. I'm pretty certain that's he's right.

As for my 1 over, I might be tempted with Sarr as he's inevitably missing match days 6,7 and 8 anyway with AFCON. The league cup games will be at the same time as CL matches 1-5 and I would let him lead the charge in that domestic cup.
 
It is a dream scenario for Spurs. to be so stacked with talented players, that we have to leave good players out of a squad for a competition.

I need TP for my bunghole.

E.g. you might think Odobert is good but if we suddenly signed Messi we would put Odobert in the bins behind the East stand, sharpish.
