Although we need a big overhaul, it will also cause more damage than good to change too many. Personally I think having JJ in the squad in the championship will be useful.. then change him next summer. We need to overhaul the whole spine with a back up keeper, centre backs and midfield and striker.. the wing backs and winger options will be fine for a season... albeit I would like to see Aluko given a go though
-
He's solid back up, but that's about it. I'm just thinking with the mess we're in and the pennies we will need to pinch.. a small offer for Hamza may be accepted as its pure profit, plus it's 50k a week off the wage bill. I wouldn't mind seeing him stay for next season only if we can afford him.. always committed when he plays
-
Will be fine for next season with JJ as cover. Will need an upgrade if we bounce back
-
One year left on his contract with a psr value of about 3 million.. it's a possibility someone may take a punt at that price.. big wage off the books hopefully. I think we could see both him and wilf go for a small fee and bouba to secure a loan.. may even see hamza go for a million .. gives us a chance to rebuild in that area alongside being stuck with skipp
-
Talks better than he plays. Stuck with him for another season. He's one of those players who I envision being in the new managers office waiting for their arriving to get his nose right up their backside. Speaks about not being good enough for a season but will happily take a wage and contribute nothing for another season... although this is bad.. it's not as bad as another two years of paying Vesty

Bang on. I actually think we could whittle that cdm four down to just one, Skipp, whom we are stuck with for a little while. Hamza is doing OK at Sheff United and could persuade them to part with a nominal 1-2m max.. straight in to the psr Wilf could fetch 4-5m maybe, and Winks could potentially attract interest from someone like Burnley for around 3 or 4 million which should be enough to get rid. Must be plenty of decent options around league one that are ready to move up the leagues to replace any of them, or even in some of the smaller European leagues. It's one of them where I'd personally watch us in the championship for a couple seasons having a thorough rebuild and going back up with a chance of staying there.. unfortunately though I think financially we're going to just yo-yo for 5 or 6 more seasons with more disappointing signings and an average squad age of 42
-
Sounds like a young Vardy.. I'm sold
-
No idea who we'll bring in next but I can't see us sacking him, at least not until after the 1st July so any pay off falls under the next financial year (assuming it also falls under psr?.. if not then this is just a wild guess) But I can see the club going down the route of trying to make Ruud feel as uncomfortable as possible to try and make him make the decision himself. We might get lucky, he might get a Bayern type offer like Kompany for doing absolutely nothing 😉
-
From that, the only two that'll fetch a reasonable fee would be Mads and Bilal, so I think we will have to cash in. I can see Wilf, Faes and Kristiansen leaving for small fees between 4 and 8m each Bouba and Okoli might be able to force themselves a loan The rest, jannik, coady, Reid, ayew etc were stuck with.. unless the Saudis fancy a small bid for Ayew maybe. Personally I hope every signing is 24 and under, whether they're loans or purchases. I wonder if Sheff United would fancy chucking one or two million our way to take Hamza.. he's done well so far.

Better off just playing an extra man up top
-
Limbs... we scored a goal.. we score a goal
-
Souttars out until Christmas
-
We'll score. Either Mav or Mac. But go on to lose 4-1. I never put us on an acca to lose but I have done today as completely given up. So no doubt we'll end up with at least a point
-
Thanks. He's had that many bad injuries I lost track. Shame as he's been absolutely quality when fit
-
Nah you're right I think I've imagined it 🤣. Just checked and that was a cruciate so no idea what I'm on about
-
He's done his ACL but I'm sure he broke his metatarsal in the game against Villa before lockdown
-
Yes true.. when he broke his foot and played for another 20mins .. against Villa just before lockdown if I remember?
-
Actually think we will find the net here.. probably am own goal.. but a goal none the less.. that being said Mads will be picking it out his net more.. Brighton 4-1 Leicester
-
Some might say he was at the best club tbh. Been injured for about 5 years and rewarded with a contract extension during it.. not many other clubs would be so stupid Love the guy, and when he's fit he's great but that's the issue he's barely ever fit for more than a couple months a season and takes up a squad place. That being said, he gave more in that 20 mins or so yesterday than I've seen anyone else do in the last eight games
-
Good challenge by Mav. Solid just like tarkowski on macallister.. how the game should be played
-
Yea I realised after when I remembered it weren't KP haha
-
Good to see Monga play before he leaves on a free in the summer.. is he not allowed the sponsor.. not king power .. just realised too young as it's gambling
-
Yes Harvey!!!! Record inbound. Just shows the difference in pace and class.. we're slow and indirect .. they attack with 2 or 3 players and rip a back 5 plus 2 holding midfielders to shreds
-
Genuinely reckon in excess of that. Said before the game to my lad it'll be 4 before half time.. they're too strong fast and direct for our lot
-
Just annoyed I didn't captain Murphy in my team
