Elite physical attributes can often be far more important that technical ones, especially in the premier league. If you have height, pace, power, balance and stamina, with very average footballing ability, you're likely gonna be a very good player, luckily, Sarr has all the physical ability, very good technical ability and seems to have great intelligence too as he has that knack of knowing where to be at the right time both going forward and defending.
Genuinely could be the next Yaya Toure, world class potential.
It’s a toss up for me as to who will be the best player in 5-7 years out of him, udogie and van de ven. They’re all top 2 or so in their position in their age group and my word are they all so, so good.
Sarr in particular has become my favorite player to watch. The kid literally has it all. He is everywhere, he wins the ball back with ease, he’s a great carrier, he can play any kind of pass you want him too, and he’s got a shot on him too. He will be as good as he wants to be.

He's also the type of player that makes the entire team look better. Reminds me a little of Wijnaldum in that sense except I think Sarr has a larger skillset

Tldr - saliba could be registered as he's an EU national and entitled to work in UK, Sarr isn't as he's Senegalese.
I'm still not convinced as if he hadn't been sent on loan, he would still be entitled to work here (unless we would have to apply for work permit and didnt)

That's a bit disappointing for sure but it is what it is.

That is a real fucking pain!
Would imagine Skipp will now be retained to satisfy the locally trained quota but it does raise the prospect of seeing some of our promising youth accelerated into the squad.

It's annoying but not a disaster - we would most likely have been looking for one or two HG players anyway - Archie Gray is clearly on the radar as is Tosin and Kelly.

Assuming we get rid of ndombele, reguilon, hojbjerg and gil and keep werner we have space for one more non HG. Consideration could also be given to sell GLC (1 yr left and injury prone) and Solomon (jury still out and injury prone)

That's a shame, but we'll deal with it. He wouldn't have been HG in Europe either way, and we would've had to plan for that in any case.

GLC is definitely leaving in the summer imo - N'dombele and Reguilon will get loans (unless their contracts end). Gil and Hojberg will both be sold if we can get deals done. I reckon Solomon gets a loan but could easily be sold.
