Am I correct in thinking we will lose... on 16:01 - Feb 3 with 3621 views | Swansea_Blue | Good grief. We're going to be down to our last 40? Yes, I think there's a substantial number of contracts expiring soon but not quite that many. Trasfermarkt has 15 listed excluding the loans. I don't know if that's correct, but it won't be far off. https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/ipswich-town/vertragsende/verein/677 Lots of first choice players too. It'll be an interesting summer. |  |

Didn't Dozzell sign a new contract? And quite a few we will have options on I am sure.... But yes, a bit of a clearout is inevitable. Unfortunately with the rules as they are I am not sure it will help much from a salary cap POV. |  | |  |

He did indeed, well remembered. Signed it before Christmas in a deal to end 23/24 season. And yes, I'm sure the devil's in the detail for many of them. Bound to be some with options. Phil will know. |  |

I think there’s about 15 players on the books who are not out of contract this summer, albeit some with options, or loanees of course. A driven new manager might see that as an opportunity rather than a negative. If memory serves, the 15 players are those who I suspect most fans would want us to build the team around as well. |  | |  |

Indeed GK - Cornell, Holy RB - KVY CB - Luke Woolfenden LB Kenlock CM - Nolan, Downes, Dozzell Wide - Lankester, Dobra ST - Norwood, Hawkins From options you'd have thought Bishop, El Miz guaranteed extension. Suspect Norwood will be moved on in some capacity, and Nolan But overall a good canvas to begin, inc addition of Ndaba, McGavin to your options [Post edited 3 Feb 2021 16:58]

Of the “senior” squad you need to add in Kenlock. |  | |  |

I made it 26 in total, 18 you might count as first-teamers, albeit some of them perhaps loosely. |  | |  |
Am I correct in thinking we will lose... on 17:17 - Feb 3 with 3350 views | ArnieM | I think it’s getting close to 50% of our bloated squad. This summer really is a watershed moment for the club as I’ve said before on here. Evans in many ways will be happy with this as his costs will fall significantly, and so will our chances of ever getting out of this division. We will be to all intents and purposes an entrenched league one outfit next season as the playing field will have been levelled. |  |

Keep (if possible): Bishop, El Miz, Edwards and Drinan unless we have another target man lined up. I’m sure this may not be popular but if we are going to have an inexperienced team then consider keeping Chambers. |  | |  |

Of those 15, the only ones I would want to keep are Bishop, Nydam (if he looks like being fit at some stage), El Mizouni & Edwards. Maybe Jackson, if we get in a manager willing to play to his strengths. |  |

The other factor in LCs favour when the squad size is limited to 20 seniors is that he can cover at RB and CB. |  | |  |

Bishop, Nydam, El Mizouni, Edwards and Jackson I'd be keen to keep but the rest I'd be happy to get rid of - we definitely need a clear out. Maybe keep one of the CBs and I expect Chambers and Skuse will be around in a coaching capacity but we can get rid of half of those. |  |

As a group this set of players have been together a while now but have a losing mentality. Individually they might do well elsewhere but collectively have underperformed for a long time. Time for some new faces. |  |

Bit harsh, Bishop and Edwards have been our best players this season, whilst Idris hasn't been given a chance and Nydam had a decent game on his return. Perhaps with a manager that instills a winning mentality they might succeed even more? [Post edited 3 Feb 2021 18:24]

Yes I suppose it’s dependent on who is deemed from first team. Presume Pryzbeck, Folami and co are the ones that blur the lines. Players who have played for the first team, but personally wouldn’t deem them as first framers as yet. |  |

Indeed. The ones I feel sorry for are Nydam and Morris, who will be over 21 next year having spent so long out injured. Might well have to move on, although the club could take them on deals and send them out on loan, I suppose. |  | |  |

I keep forgetting that Morris exists. What's he even doing atm? Is he here or out loaned somewhere? |  |

If fit I’d have Nydam in at left back any day of the week. |  |

I agree on Chambers if the money is right. He’s a good man to have around the squad. I’d let Drinan go. I’d rather keep Morris and give him another season |  |
