Chelsea's squad as it stands with Enzo added.

GK.
Kepa
Mendy
Slonina
Bettinelli

Defenders.
Fofana
Badiashile
Koulibaly
Chalobah
Silva
Cucurella
Chilwell
Reece James
Azpilicuta
Lewis Hall
Male Gusto - in the summer.

Midfielders.
Kovacic
Gallagher
Loftus-Cheek
Chukwuemeka
Jorginho - Out of contract in the summer
Kante - Out of contract in the summer
Zakaria - Loan
Mason Mount
Enzo

Forwards.
Havertz
Ziyech
Sterling
Mudryk
Pulisic
Madueke
Broja
Aubameyang
Fofana
Joao Felix - On loan
Nkunku - In the summer

They have a job on their hands getting rid, although Kante and Jorginho will free up wages and spaces. God I hope they somehow fall on their arse, this is ludicrous.

Whilst it is not a squad littered with world class players, they could make two teams from it that would allow serious rotation without a massive drop off in quality and pretty much eliminate fatique from being overplayed.

Still think they need a proper finisher up front and to move Havertz back to being an AM or use him as a support striker playing behind a number 9.

Well Chelsea have royally ****ed up the transfer market for the foreseeable future

Just wait until Newcastle really get started.

There will surely be loads heading out at Chelsea at some point.

Their wage bill must be ridiculous

Their wage bill must be ridiculous

They possibly might be doing what City are doing and having sections of their employees being paid by a third party company. Not breaking any laws afaik as long as proper taxes etc are paid and the club's official wage bill will have more wiggle room as a result.

How do they fit those players into the 25 man squad? I know you can have youngsters on the PL B-list, but even still surely some people will be left out?

Two first team players for every position, then round things out by adding one extra defender. midfielder and attacker.

Youngsters (and some of their youngsters are 20m and 30m players) pad things out.

Linked it Sabitzer now

They probably have 3 for most

[little dave hedgehog]

how many of those are 21 or under? they can only register 25 players above 21, tf are they going to do with the rest, they won't be able to play them...?

That's my question, there are 34 players listed there, I don't know their ages but I would guess more than 25 of them are over 21, I can't be bothered to work out how many count as homegrown, but I can't believe they can all fit into the 25 man squad rules, maybe I'm wrong.
