Gil, Veretout, Sanchez, Guzan, Sinclair potentially away then. Light in midfield unless we keep hold of Gana.

Indeed. I'm concerned about the way the outgoing / incoming balance is looking and the general quality so far. Still relatively early days, though, so here's hoping we do some decent business.

Gil was rubbish. No loss at all.

The only one I would be a little disappointed about would be Veretout as I see some potential in him.

Veretout could cross a ball and play a pass, so has potential, and may still have as he is pretty young. Build his confidence back up in France and see what gives next summer.

I would definitely take Bridcutt with the number leaving though, as it would give us a known performer in this league with Tshibola who is young and injury prone. We are worryingly light of midfield quality. If Sinclair goes too, we need at least a striker and a winger.

Big 3-4 weeks.

Seeing tonight, we need to ship out and buy quickly or we will struggle to stay even in this league.

I will be sorry to see Sanchez go.

Pardon?

The departure of Sanchez will save us a minimum of ten goals a season conceded.

I don't disagree with the mass exodus and restructuring

But it's hard to see us sorting this all out in time to put in a serious push for the top two this season. There's so much to do.

I'd take a stable start to the season. We definitely need another wide midfield option and a striker. Possibly another central midfielder too, depending on whether Westwood goes

After the pomp and ceremony of seeing a new owner and manager coming in, realisation is dawning. The squad really is quite shit other than those recently purchased (we hope).  So much work to do. If we can keep Amavi, Ayew and Gueye it might help. Adding in Grealish to those we have signed and we have three quarters of a side. Lacking in fire power and creativity though. Only two weeks to go but I guess we have the whole of August too.

It was probably our owners intention to create a feeder club within the west midlands area.

Just read on HITC that Ravel Morrison's odds have been cut to 4/6 to join our club. Undoubtedly talented but are we as yet in a position to take on this care in the community case considering the ongoing redevelopment of the squad?!!
