Great start to season . Well happy bamford scored. Just realised Clarke wasn't in squad because we only allowed 5 loans in match day squad . Can't help thinking the loan of meslier is a waste of a squad position when we have 2 capable young keepers should we need them . Seems a shame that Clarke misses out because of that.

I just also realised this point has already been discussed but It needs to be said.

Bielsa was probably assuming that at least 1 of the six would be injured each game!

Think the Eddie loan was all that was on offer once Roofe went, hence 6 loanies, TBH and IMO, not that arsed about Clarke not our best wide option.

It’s a serious point about the injuries, as the season gets going, I wonder how often all 6 will be available. If they are and we keep on having to drop one, it will therefore be a good problem to have.

Question for an Ed, wonder if there's scope within rules to buy Helder earlier in order to accommodate? Or would we then be prone to potential FFP criticism?

{Ed002's Note - In order to accommodate what?}

Ed002 Clarke in the matchday 18.

{Ed002's Note - I have no idea what you are talking about.}

If we buy him early, we get muffed on FFP, hence the original deal, deferring payment til next FY.

Would not affect FFP rules if we bought him early. Still have to pay for him at end of season and falls within same financial year. Not going to happen though.

Ed002 Complicated stuff, obviously. Never mind.
