Way SB was talking everyone on loan will be sold so that's Sanchez already gone, Gil, Veretout, Tishbola, McCormack all to follow and maybe a few of our young players will go aswell like Mason.

From the existing squad think Elphick will be moved on and probably Gardner.

With the loan players, we have a squad of around 35. Mason, Kozak and Sanchez are gone already. We might need another 10 out if Bruce wants to bring in four quality players. They'd better start the wheeling and dealing quickly and effectively. Given that many of our players are wasters, we will have to work really hard to move them on.

Bunn, Hutton and Gardner should be amongst those who need to go. I have said the same in previous posts.
In saying this, i'm sure that Bunn was given a new contract not so long ago (sure I saw it mentioned on this site). I'm also aware that Hutton got a one year extension and Gardner signed a new contract till 2020.
I don't know if Bruce was taking the "P" or if he's been on the wacky baccy, but as well as talking about Gabby being given yet another chance, he's also prepared to give the "Gatekeeper" another chance as well.
Promotion next season......I don't think so.......

Id get rid of Bunn, Elphick, Bacuna, Richards, Gardner, Gabby, McCormack. Would love to see the loan boys introduced, especially Gil and Tish.

Can't see it happening.

I read somewhere that Joe Ledley's contract is up this summer. Would be a good option to rotate with Jedinak.

I have only watched about fifteen minutes of the European under-17 Championships, form gambling purposes, but have been sufficiently impressed with French winger Hakim el Mokeddem.

We should sign him.

We could easily shift Elphick, Gardner and Bacuna, if we were so inclined.

Agree, Elphick & Bacuna might need a bit of financial inducement as I doubt they'd get equivalent contracts elsewhere, Gardner would have options because of his age & the fact he was highly rated before his injuries

Don't forget our bet Mr U that if "my favourite" does not finish up in two years with a team in the Champions League I will buy you lunch.  Being a gambling man I will double up on another favourite of mine Remi Garde being a Premiership manager in two years.
