Most of the above reserve and academy players have poor ratings in pretty much all data streams available, so need to go now, not later.Getting rid of the above would save the club more than £250,000 a week in wages alone, then we can restart Vic Crowes dream academy for a start!!!I'd keep Tshibola, Gollini, Gil and Vertout as I think all will come good, even if we only give them half the time we gave the likes of Westwood.I'd tell the likes of Elphick and Grealish to they need to start showing why they're getting paid, as I 'd get rid for the right money.We then need to look at buying an experienced GK, a CB as cover, a young future replacement for Jedinak, 2 decent wingers and a youngish goalscorer as cover for our sparce forward line.My thoughts only....comments please!!Wow - what on earth are data streams?Clearing out the academy of goalkeepers I see...

Larry, thanks for the insight, but part of me would like you to end all of your posts abruptly mid sentence, in keeping with your wonderful username.
Spot on about Mitch Clark Larry.From what I hear, he's the next one they have really high hopes for.
I'd be stunned if we don't have a Gallagher / Chris Martin type amongst our centre forward options next season-in much the same way as Bruce likes two up top he also likes a big lad amongst them. Kodjia / Hogan / Gallagher & RHM or Davis (with the other out on loan) would be a decent set of options.
I have to admit when I saw Mitch Clark on the list I thought it was at odds with everything I'd heard about him so I'm glad to see Larry's comments.Quote from: shipscat on March 27, 2017, 09:31:26 PMSpot on about Mitch Clark Larry.From what I hear, he's the next one they have really high hopes for.Depends what you mean by 'next one' all the buzz I've heard is about Suliman and I'm hoping we might see him get a look in towards the last few games of the season. When I've seen the U23s this year he's been head and shoulders above anyone else so I think he needs to be pushed to either a good loan or into the first team soon.
Is that the Swiss/Austrian midget goalie? Can I say midget?
A lot of the young players Eddie has mentioned have been released anyway and are looking for new clubs for next season.
