I'd be upset to see all the kids go, The problem is they've all been thrown in at the deep end and been asked to play out of position. Ideally the new man will properly assess the talent and not resort to the cheque book straight away.

Collins
Dunne
Warnock
Hutton
Ireland

Those 5 internationals have a lot to answer for over the last two seasons (Hutton obviously only one season of ineptness for us)

Of the rest of them, let them battle for their places in the squad.

No one has put Bannan on the sell list, am I missing something with this kid, I think he looks well out of his depth

Alan Hutton - worse right back ever!

This should be the first bit of dealing done!

I'm not sure we're in a position to sell anybody, and to judge on this seasons performances is maybe a bit harsh. Dunne, Collins and  were part of a fantastic defence very recently, to paraphrase McLeish, they haven't become bad players overnight. If we don't need to get rid of anyone, should we?

Hutton
Collins - I'd keep Dunne because we look a more solid defensive unit with him in it
Fonz
Gabby
Albrighton

the problem with the usual suspects is that their monumental bell endedness, huge saary aspirations and total lack of real ability will act as a massive disincentive to any prospective purchaser. Maybe the way forward with a few of them is to simply try and buy them off . It might be worth it to an incoming manager to free the club an obviously pernicious influence.

I don't think he'll make it, but I know his game hasn't been at all helped playing for McLeish. If we get a new manager who gets us passing the ball and at least actually attacking, we might see more for him.

Personally though I don't think he'll be here in a year, nor Albrighton. Neither has enough in their locker, and Bannan's just too small, without enough of the gumption and right attitude to make up for that. Hope he proves me wrong though.

If Blackpool win on Saturday, I could see Ollie coming in with a bid

Bannan, at the moment, isn't really saleable. We'd be lucky to get £2m for him. Better off letting him battle for a place. Although after his behaviour this year I'd get shot personally.

"We" shouldn't sell anyone. Different players perform in completely different ways for managers, so we'll just have to see who shines under the new management.

This is the biggest mistake McLeish made. He should have cleared out the underperformers and rebuilt the defence. In the end, he didn't have the personnel to make his ultra defensive system work.

Collins, Dunne and Warnock have had plenty of chances now and, though they can be decent on their day, those days are few and far between.
