May be a technicality but on what date do we become a Premier League club for the purpose of the new Brexit rule? Could we sign players under EFL rules before that date?

Non starter unless we buy and loan back. This is a key position for us and we don't want to be scrapping around Dutch 2nd Division anyway tbh.

Rules have been in since December, its for all levels of English leagues that 15 points are needed for GBE not just PL.

Nothing wrong with the Dutch second division, plenty of top players have started there and moved on to bigger things. Cantwell being one.

If we were Championship fine, but to avoid relegation we need an upgrade on Hanley and Gibson imo.

I'd be amazed if Hanley and Gibson were not considered to be the "starting pair" in the prem. Any in-coming centre-backs will be back-ups and competition, I would have thought, and not upgrades.

Although I agree that to stay up we really need to upgrade on Hanley & Zimmermann, Gibson has shown that he’s definitely good enough for us in the premiership if he shakes off this injury with no ill effects, but the reality is we’ll follow the same process as we did two years ago, carefully spending the limited budget we might make and development of some younger fringe squad players.

Indeed. Hanley + Gibson has been one of our best defensive pairings in a long time
