I'd have Taylor and Nelson Addy down as certs. Apart from that there arent too many I'd have down as likely to leave.
Its always hard though when you have a good group but you have to move some on to make room.

Siegrist, Webb, Williams, Johnson, Graham, Grealish and Burke are very unlikely to go anywhere I think.

I'd poss add Caira to that list & before yesterday Drennan was one who never stood out to me on 5/6 times that I've seen him

Saw Devine was on the bench yesterday - presume he has been injured as not seen his name this season and he looked a big solid unit at centre half last year.

Devine and Williams played well together before his injury but Donacien is a quality player too.
Depends on his passport situation.

There are always some suprises.

Yes, or at least he was. I dont know the latest but as he's playing again I'm thinking it's turned out alright.
Ridiculous business. If it was an Arsenal youngster I wonder if it would have been an issue.

I hope you're right. Seems silly for them to be going after promising footballers when they can't get shot of terrorists (pun intended).

I'm just amazed that my old neighbour (and schoolmate of Bad English) Warren Joyce is Man Utd's reserve manager.

I was better than him!

Just checked, it's a different bloke.
