No proof he's actually said that but if he has fair play

Scapegoat seems to suggest an element of unfairness. Hutton was unspeakably shite last season.

It's not difficult to believe that Hutton's agent has tipped off the paper to make it public knowledge and get his client a new club. I wouldn't be at all surprised if Naughton was being lined up as replacement either.

Sell Bannan, Fonz, Hutton, Dunne, Warnock, Delph and Doug Ellis. Rebuild the defence.

Hutton looked good when I saw him play for Rangers ages ago, but all he seems to be good for now is repeatedly injuring people and passing the ball to the other team. We could potentially see an entire new defence next season considering that Dunne, Collins and Warnock are all big pants as well.

No way would I sell Lichaj, thought he did really well played out of position.
Hutton first to be shown the door,followed by Dunne and Collins.That was the problem for the last 2 seasons -central defence.

Hutton has two problems:
1: he is utter sh*te
2: he is TSM's man

He won't be here for the start of next season.

Taking wages into account, Dunne and Warnock would be the main two I'd be looking to move on this summer along with the Fonz.  I'd keep Collins and maybe even give Hutton another chance, although it looks like he could be going.  Ireland is a tricky one, as I don't think he can really play anywhere else but in the hole and that makes him an expensive luxury, especially if Lambert is going to play a 4-4-2.  As for the rest, I think we should be giving them the opportunity to prove themselves unless a decent offer is made for any of them.

The main thing is that nobody should be under any illusions that we start with a clean slate and that they will all have another year to free load off the club.

When we signed Dunne he looked good and excuse the pun but solid. I thought he might become a bit of a cult figure for us like he did with City. I don't know what has happened but his form is shot. He might have the odd good game but he makes so many mistakes. His form for us has carried into the Euros which is not a great advert to sell, but I'm sure we could still sell him on for a few million to some mug out there.

I think you're still being too nice about him.
