Oliver Skipp (massively overinflated transfer fee; one of the underperformers of the season)

Bobby De Cordova-Reid (underperformer; and he's not getting any younger)

Stephy Mavididi (underperformer; head is someplace else)

Fran Vieites (pointless transfer)

Caleb Okoli (underperformer, bad performances)

Victor Kristiansen (neither a left-back nor a centre-back, poor performances)

Massive overhaul needed this summer, irrespective of the league we're in.

Didn’t Percy say Winks has another year left on his deal due to a clause that was met?

[ToeKneeHandCock]

Winks has got another year unfortunately

Fvck. List amended. Thanks.

I would imagine there is a price on every head of those still in contract tbh.

I’m not even sure we could say we will build a team around those break-through academy lads at this point due to finances & a lack of future manager.

 

We don’t have any Premier league bound players, Fatawu at a push maybe, but Championship clubs could strip us of any nuggets we think we could build around & hopefully they do for certain players, the likes of Mavididi for instance.

 

If League 1 it is to be, you would like to think those that we have out on loan will be safe from being poached from teams in the championship but still be able to hold their own for us to be competitive, Braybrooke, Cartwright, JJ, Alves, Wilson-Brown along with Popov & Evans.

We then get into those who are performing well in the unders currently but the main names have all been linked to premier lge academies so unknowns there also.

 

Of all the players that have had a 1st team start this season I’d only say what a shame if unfortunately sold are probably Aluko & Nelson at this point & at a push Page because he would then make up the 10th outfield player with the guys name checked already and then add in a keeper we have a starting 11 & all academy who should be able to be competitive in Lge 1….
 

It’s a start.

 

Keeper

 

Aluko

Nelson

Wilson-Brown

JJ

 

Braybrooke

Cartwright

Page

 

Alves

Popov

Evans

 

Then add in from there

Apart from the players out of contract, due to the silly wages, financial issues and useless board there isn't going to be a big reset, don't get your hopes up. Only hope is that they appoint a manager who is willing to start the youngsters like Braybrooke and Alves who will actually be willing to put a shift in to try and prove themselves.

[Tuna]

Everyone out of contract should go, everyone else should be sold for whatever value we can get for them.

 

Keep only the decent academy players and get rid of the rest. Club needs a sea change and a whole new squad of new players who want to be here and are proud to wear the shirt, aligned with whatever manager we recruit.

It’s going to be a very long and frustrating summer given how many players still under contract we are going to have to move on before we can add to the squad.

 

If the club had any bollocks whatsoever it would set aside a corner of Seagrave and tell Faes, Vestergaard, Okoli, Kristiensen, Winks, Choudhury, Skipp, Mavididi, Fatawu, and BDCR they are training pre season away from the rest of the squad on their own and won’t be considered for selection so basically find another club and **** off there as fast as you can. 

[Pliskin]

I predict that this summer will be very similar to last. 
 

We will spend all summer trying to offload players, and we won’t sign anyone by the time the season starts. 
 

Every single player needs to go, we simply can’t have these types of wages in league one. No matter the offer we need to sell….. 

[Finn Claw II]

I think the reality is that the out of contract players plus a few more saleable players go - Abdul, Jordan James, Faes.

 

A few will be loaned out, Winks, Hamza, Okoli possibly Kristianson

 

I can see interest in Nelson and Monga but neither has demonstrated that they had PL potential yet as this side drags everyone down.

Isn’t Nelson out of contract? And from what I’ve been led to believe, Monga is going to Man City anyway

The culture at the club is rancid and has been for near on 5 years.

 

Mass clear out is needed.

 

But nothing changes until the senior leadership they are the ones that are responsible for that culture.

 

100% need a no dickhead policy.

 

 

[Spiritwalker]

I didn’t realise Winks still had another year, we really are in trouble.

[RedSoxUK]

Can't see us selling Ben Nelson other than for dumb money (£10m+ which we won't get.) If the offers come in lower I'm sure they'll be considered but we will need some consistency in the fallout, so Nelson, Stolarczyk, Thomas and I reckon Souttar, Skipp and BDR are the ones who to stay.

 

For example we'll absolutely be trying to offload Faes, Vestergaard, Okoli and Woyo as priority in defence. Fatawu, Hamza, Mavididi best prices.

Helps if you actually spell it correctly.

 

I don’t remember you or many other posters saying how bad the squad was after 1 defeat in the first 10 games whilst sat in 4th

I thought we would get promoted before the season started but after watching them over time it’s not hard to realise most of them couldn’t give a shit and we simply do not have a good enough squad.

Nelson and Stolarcryk will be the ones that are easy to shift on lower wages. We will have to sell them with a year left on their contracts and needing anything we can get.

 

£10 mill is so unrealistic. I reckon maybe £3 mill combined for both of them. It’ll be a case of take it or they walk for free the year after.

To avoid any ambiguity you think we do not have a good enough squad to avoid relegation?

[Cropwellfox]

Will need to sacrifice as many home grown players as we can for pure transfer profit as there’s not a hope of getting more than book value for any of the others. Nelson and Monga obvious, Page too possibly. Maybe Wilder will have Choudhury from us fingers crossed for a couple of million. Will probably more likely to be loaning the players with high wages - Kristiensen, Okoli, Faes, Winks and Skipp.

Nelson‘s contract ends in June 2027.
 

As for Monga, latest talk is ManU and Arsenal have made formal inquiries, after ManCity did.

We‘re about to offer him a pro contract.

Yeah if you totally exclude the managers input as many have now highlighted to you.
