Out:
Muric - £9m
Szmodics - £3.5m
Ogbene - £3m
Humphreys - £1m
Chaplin - Release
Burns - Regrettable release
H. Clarke - Release
Townsend - Release
Young - Retired
Button - Release
Slicker - Minimal
Palmer - £2m
Akpom - £4m
Al-Hamadi - £1.5m
Can we get £20m+ in from the above? Less than we paid, but would be half decent at this stage. Muric obviously doing a lot of the heavy lifting on that. Akpom probably a tough one to get out, maybe a loan is more realistic.
In:
Radek Vitek - Loan
Lutsharel Geertruida - £20m
Zian Flemming - £15m
Adam Webster - Free / out of contract
Hayden Hackney - £20m. Perhaps unlikely now, but have to go for him.
Allan Saint-Maximin - Free / out of contract. Predominantly left sided but versatile across attacking areas.
Delap - Loan (probably unrealistic)
Ward-Prowse - £8m? West ham paid a fortune for him, but they won't be getting anything like that back.
Callum Wilson - Free / out of contract.
Souffian El Karouani - Free / out of contract. Left back rival to Leif, loves to get forward and assist. Morocco international, only 25 and presumably not on stupid money.
Need a few more on top of the above, presumably with the budget to do so, but they're ones that come to mind as at least semi realistic. What would people think if we lined up with the below, with El Karouani, Wilson, Greaves, Matusiwa, McAteer, Nunez, J.Clarke backing up.
Vitek
Geertruida O'Shea Webster Davis
Hackney Ward-Prowse
Saint-Maximin Flemming Philogene

Radek Vitek - Good keeper at Champ level, but do we need someone with top flight experience?
Lutsharel Geertruida - Will likely go to a bigger club than us.
Zian Flemming - Would be a good signing. A goal every 156 mins is excellent.
Adam Webster - Would be good IF he can stay fit.
Hayden Hackney - Agreed, good, but bigger clubs may be back in for him. Although he may appreciate KM's persistence.
Allan Saint-Maximin - Forgot all about him, inconsistent even when he was at his prime.
Delap - Loan. Not too fussed about Delap, but wouldnt say no. Again, bigger clubs may be in for him. Maybe best for all sides to move on.
Ward-Prowse - Just seems to be a free kick taker, not up to the Prem anymore.
Callum Wilson - Yes, perfect as an impact sub, if he would take that role.
Souffian El Karouani - Never seen him play. I'll take your word for it. |  |

Don't disagree with any of that tbf. Tried to balance optimism with realism on the list but appreciate some would be less likely than others.
El Karouani is very Leif like, quick, energetic, loves to get forward and has a ridiculous record of assists from left back. Takes a nice free kick as well. I think he's one who might go higher though, I can see going to Bundesliga or a middling prem side especially as he's out of contract and likely to have a lot of suitors. | | | |

I would like Marc Guiu. His career has really stalled, 13 games in 2 years. |  | | |

I think Szmods and Ogbene will get lower fees - age / injuries harming their value a fair bit.
Humphries is probably worth that, but with only one year left (presuming we take his option) I don't think anyone will be paying that much for him.
Slicker will stay and be loaned much higher up the pyramid - he's shown that he's way too good for League 2. I still think he can make it here - genuinely has that potential but a keeper is a much longer game than an outfielder.
I'd bite anyones hand off for those fees for Akpom or Ali.
I like all your signing suggestions! Bar, as someone else has said, Ward-Prowse. He hasn't got the legs, and we haven't got the legs around him to carry him through a game. |
I think that's a bit over-confident for Slicker at the moment, if by 'much higher up the pyramid' you mean Championship. Still some learning to do, but of course goalkeepers have that bit longer to get to their best.
There are plenty of decent goalkeepers even in League 2, and not many 'situations vacant' in the leagues above. The stats (for what they're worth) rank him about half way up the L2 list for last season.

I may have caught him on an off day when Colchester put 4 past him in February, but he certainly did not look particularly imposing. (In particular, hoping a penalty-taker is going to do a panenka at 1-1 is not a good look.) |  | | |

Ooo - those stats are interesting, thanks for sharing! As you said he seems to be half way up for most of those stats, but interestingly ranked 4th in rating - perhaps he's found a way to look better than he is |  | | |

Adding some more:
Yann Gboho - French Ivorian playing for Toulouse. Plays on the left or in the 10, scores goals, 25 yrs old.
Carlos Espi - Levante striker, Spanish, in the McKenna number 9 profile and young. Probably goes higher if he moves now though.
Markus Karlsson - can play at the back or in midfield, highly thought of at Hammarby. Young, would be viewed as one for the future.
Lucas Stassin - Young (21) striker. Likely to leave St Etienne if they go up or not. Would probably cost a lot and probably has eyes on a bigger club than us, but not impossible.
Geertruida
El Karouani
Hackney
Stassin
Espi
Gboho
Go sign them all Ashton. | | | |
