...following on from the 'overhaul' thread I make it these players will count against the squad limit next season and are contracted: Over 21s contracted - i.e.will count against the squad limit - 20 players GK (1) Slicker RB (1) Clarke LB (1) Davis CB (4) Edmundson Woolfenden Ndaba Baggott CM (5) Morsy Taylor Luongo Humphreys El Mizouni W/10 (4) Burns Chaplin Harness Broadhead CF (4) Al-Hamadi Hirst Ahadme Ladapo Out of contract - 10 players Walton Ball Burgess Jackson Aluko Camara Hladky Hayes Tuanzebe Donacien You'd expect Burgess and one of the keepers to be retained as an absolute bare minimum there, personally I'd say both keepers, even if it is just to try and sell Walton Effectively leaves us like this at 23 of the allowed 25 players GK (3) Slicker Hladky Walton RB (1) Clarke LB (1) Davis CB (5) Edmundson Woolfenden Ndaba Baggott Burgess CM (5) Morsy Taylor Luongo Humphreys El Mizouni W/10 (4) Burns Chaplin Harness Broadhead CF (4) Al-Hamadi Hirst Ahadme Ladapo GK - 1 will likely go CB - Imagine at least 1, if not both, of Baggott and Ndaba go out on loan CM - El Mizouni likely not to play a part here CF - Ladapo to go, Ahadme loan or sale Takes us down to about 17 players so 8 slots which we are very likely to fill, plus the sale of players we don't want to lose (i.e. Davis), and the sale of players we are maybe happier to move on (i.e. Edmundson, or even Taylor) I could see us pushing back up to the 25 man limit next season as KMc likes a big squad, and there being 10 new signings in that, whether they be permanent or loan. |  |
