PLAYERS I EXPECT TO LEAVE

lafferty

gary oneil

turner

the wolf- still expect him to depart if we can get someone to take him.

 

[Din]

GK: Ruddy, Rudd, Kean

DF: Whittaker, Martin, Olsson, Wisdom, R.Bennett, Bassong, New CB, (Toffolo)

MF: Johnson, Howson, Andreu, Hoolahan, Mulumbu, Tettey, E.Bennett, Brady, O'Neil, Odjidja (Redmond, Josh, Jacob, Thompson, McGrandles)

ST: Jerome, Grabban, Hooper, Van Wolfswinkel, New ST (Loza)

Obviously all those in brackets are under 21's and don't need to be included. The fact that both Turner and Lafferty were loaned out towards the end of last season suggests to me that Neil doesn't think they're good enough, and I can't see his opinion changing now that we've been promoted. I think we'll definitely sign a new striker,  most likely Mbokani, and also another defender, but not sure whether that'll be a left back or centre back. Possibly even both and somebody else leaves.

Isn't Loza off on loan this season?

otherwise pretty much spot on Din I think.  

I still ill want to see two or three more arrivals before the deadline 

 

[Yellow Fever]

Agree that Din's looks right, except that he's forgotten Dorrans, so someone else will have to go. RvW?

Oh yeah  didn't realise that. Yeah I'd say RvW or O'Neil are the two most likely candidates.

 

[Din]

GK: Ruddy, Rudd, Kean

DF: Martin, Bassong, Amat, R.Bennett, Wisdom, Whittaker, Olsson.

MF: Howson, Tettey, Dorrans, Brady, Hoolahan, Mulumbu, Johnson, Odjidja, O'Neil, Andreu, E.Bennett (Redmond)

ST: Jerome, Austin, Murray, Van Wolfswinkel (Loza)

Sell Grabban, Sell/Loan Hooper and Lafferty, loan Toffolo and Thompson. 

I would be absolutely over the moon if this was our 25 man squad.

 

[KeiranShikari]

lol Austin, come on lad.

 

[Din]

It's more of an ideal 25 man squad than what I actually expect. I reckon that Amat will be coming in, with one if not both of Murray/Walters.
