If we hadn't been promoted, how many of the 2023/24 squad would still remain?
IMO the following players would still have departed/retired or been sold in Summer '24 :
Donacien Jackson El Miz Ndaba Ahadme Camara Aluko Ball Ladapo Leif (sold) Omari (not signed)
And the following players would still have departed or been sold in 2025 :
Tuanzebe Morsy Harness Luongo
So IMO the only players who could still be here today from 2023/24 are Hladky, Fridge and Burgess.
I think the point I'm trying to make, is the squad turnover would have been just as high if we'd not been promoted. And we would have been worse off as KMc would probably have left for Brighton and obvs there would have been less £££s to invest in the squad without the PL TV money/parachute payments.
