The defenders can be 2 DL/DC, 2 DC/DR, 2 DC/DMC. You can keep 3-4 reserves to reduce quality. These can be academy players. You can train them a SA or roles, this helps when you sell them later or even in negos. Best of luck for next season

And as you play hexagon more, keep a keeper, 6 defenders, 3/4 MCs, 4 wingers, 3 STs - 18 men should be enough. If you want a full 22 man rotation then go for it — each style has its own pros and cons. I don't want anyone to strictly do what someone says as each manager's play style is different — if you're Mou then you can form a squad with 11 men but if you're Wenger then even 33 guys won't be enough, half of them with season tickets to the medical center
I've been advised to keep my 3 7* and 5 6* and have 6 3* to lower the quality for Cups.
