The myth - so often perpetrated by lazy journalists - that we have a massive squad with two expensive world class players for every position is not only patently untrue but is actually the opposite of the truth which is that we have the smallest senior squad in the premier league.
The following table shows the number of senior (over 21 players) registered to each club.
There is a maximum of 25 senior players of whom a maximum of 17 may be non home grown.
21 - AFC Bournemouth
22 - Arsenal
25 - Brighton & Hove Albion
25 - Burnley
21 - Chelsea
24 - Crystal Palace
22 - Everton
23 - Huddersfield Town
19 - Leicester City
21 - Liverpool
18 - Manchester City
24 - Scum
24 - Newcastle United
24 - Southampton
24 - Stoke City
25 - Swansea City

https://www.premierleague.com/news/612828Our squad of eighteen registered senior players does not include Gabriel Jesus or Leroy Sane who still count as U21s (so do Icheanacho and Damarai Gray at Leicester, Rashford etc at Scum).
Our eighteen does include Mendy (out for most of the season), Kompany + Delph (can't be trusted to finish 90 minutes never mind 2 games a week) and Yaya (seemingly in his dotage).

Another myth - that we have more foreign players than anybody else - is also untrue.
Tottenham (17), Chelsea (16 + Cesc Fabregas who is regarded as home grown) and Scum (15) have more senior foreign players than us and we are level with Liverpool and Arsenal on 14.
