You're right! I'm just reading the updated rules, which are obviously intended to stop clubs doing as I suggested.
I don't think they make it particularly clear what is/n't allowed regarding loans from abroad and lower leagues but a max of 2 Prem loans with a max of one from a club will make it challenging especially as Utd will either need to improve or bring in cover/competition in almost all positions - the only possible exceptions being CB (Egan/AA) and RWB (Bogle/Baldock).
I think you can loan as many as you want from abroad/the football league.
 

4 players I'd be looking at bringing in on a free to bolster the squad. I know all are championship but I believe these can all make the step up

Ryan Manning, Swansea
Pukki, Norwich
Jake Cooper, Millwall
Chris Willock, QPR
 
Is Willock on a free? That would seem worthwhile. But maybe we should steer clear of QPR attacking midfielders who score against us at Bramall Lane. He's missed half the season too

Their more defensive mid, Sam Field, would be worth picking up but no idea if he's out of contract
 
I'd be in for Chair and Willock at QPR, especially if they go down as bargains may be available. Gyokeres at Coventry would be a good get for the right price. There's a centre back at Blackburn that looks handy (Hyam)..

Requirements:

1 x goalkeeper.

1x LWB (release JLT , JOC, Stevens, Clark and Osborn).

1 x Left footed centre back. Possibly two depending on RND's prognosis

1 x left footed midfielder (thanks and goodbye Osborn and Fleck).

At least one high energy central midfielder (preferably two).

A centre forward. Surely Sharp leaves as I think he'll want to continue playing.

Before that priority should he given to contract extensions for Ndiaye, Anel, Berge, Jebbison, Osula, RND, Bogle (young enough to come again), Mcburnie and any other young lads we wish to retain .
 
Players we can afford if we go up.
IMO We should start with
Chong, Birmingham
Chalobah, Watford
O'brien, Forest

Chong is a really good shout. I'd take O ' Brien if the scabs are in deep shit and have to offload for a bargain price.
 

Praet's surely destined to return to... Belgium, is he Belgian? He's built a great nest egg at Leicester but barely played.

Albrighton is too old.

Iheanacho would have been on a huge salary. No chance we get him.

Belgium, Derby and Turkey likely to be destinations of those three, rather than Shirecliffe
 
Any realistic ones from league 1 or 2 that aren't too old or sh*t?
 
No more signings today according to CW…

I very much doubt we'll go down this route as any free agents will likely have had no pre season. The time to bring in frees was June and July.
 
Edouard Michut is a stand out on that list was alright when on loan at Sunderland and has cancelled his contract after his club wasn’t paying his wages
 

Aaron Connolly may be a decent option on that list. Had a one year deal with hull scoring 8 in 28 so maybe we could do a similar deal. Don't get me wrong wouldn't be my dream signing but maybe a realistic one.

Very valid point - however, get them on a specific training plan and they should be match fit by mid-October, if we sign them early. It’s a long season after all.
 
There’s some amazing “free agents” on that list tbh. Wonder what’s happening with Hummels, Martial and Depay…?
They won’t be coming to BDTBL, but they’re incredible “free” signings for someone

His career has disappeared down the shitter for a reason. He’s an absolute arsehole.
 
There's lots of free agents, but unfortunately they want to be paid a wage

You would have thought martial and depay would have been picked up by the Saudi league
