In Or Out For Next Season ?

[gervilla]

Now that the season is over who do you think should be moved on ?

I have given my opinion below.
Some are in the "In" column as they are yet to prove if they are up to the standard required or not.
Some are in the "Out" column as we just need them off the wage bill.
Some have shown that they are not up to the standard required so for me it's goodbye and thanks.
For some, it's just goodbye and good riddance.

Doh !
Can a mod please move this to the appropriate place ?

[PeterWithesShin]

What about Bennett, Makoun, Sylla and Fonz?

[PaulWinch again]

I'd keep KEA, Bennett but other than that I'd agree probably if possible.

[not3bad]

What about the players we want to shake all about?

[gervilla]

What about Bennett, Makoun, Sylla and Fonz?

Makoun is off any way isn't he ?
I have added in the others.

[supertom]

Out- As many as we can from:
Hutton, Makoun, Ireland, Dunne, Bent, N'Zogbia (cash in if poss, replace with more reliable player), Bannan, Delfouneso, Given, Marshall, Holman, Alby, Lichaj.

Obviously we're barely gonna shift half. But in the next 2-3 windows, all the above should move on IMO.

Replace with 4-5 quality signings this summer. Supplement as and where we need in January with 2-3 in.

Done.

I'd like to shake Stephen Ireland all about, by the throat.

[not3bad]

I assume we would get a taker for the Fonz since he's still making the England under 21 squad.  What should we ask for him?

[PeterWithesShin]

50 crates of Pot Noodles.

[eamonn]

I assume we would get a taker for the Fonz since he's still making the England under 21 squad.  What should we ask for him?

Personally I'd keep him and give him one last go. Otherwise £1.5m potentially rising to £3m.

[eastie]

Rather than list every player would it not be easier to just do an out list?

Bent, Ireland, dunne, albrighton, kea, bannan , Holman , nzogbia, Stevens.hutton, Fonz.

6 goals in about 20 starts and 20 sub appearances in the Championship I think it is. I think he's going to be another Byfield. Will do well in say the third tier but will struggle much higher than that.

[Greg N'Ash]

I'd keep all the players signed in the last 12months, good or bad.

The remnants of the MON old guard - obviously bin them

I'd prefer to keep Bent as an insurance policy, but i guess he'll go

TSM  signings Hutton, N'Zogbia - bin them

Youth players - Delfousenso, Allbrighton - bin them. Probably give Bannon one more try
