General_Grievous Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 So, according to the Star, the club will release details of who is being offered a new contract, and who isn't This suggests to me that the manager decision will have already been made, or is going to be resolved pretty quickly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwintOwl Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Wildsmith and Dawson.... I'd imagine that will be it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutch McLovin Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Think most of them will. Dawson Wildsmith Sasso Semedo will all get new deals in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All others are dead wood and need moving on to freshen things up a bit. I know some people will say how Semedo is a 'club legend' and how he is so good in the dressing room but no room for sentiment and should have really gone last year.

Shudder to think of the wages wasted on Lachman at al. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OwlofOliveGrove Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Time to have a proper clear out. I hope CC isn't scared to admit his recruitment mistakes and get rid of the unsuccessful/unused additions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave78 Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 (edited) I'll be happy when we get rid of all the dead wood! I'd keep Wildsmith, Dawson and Sasso. Edited May 22, 2017 by Dave78 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
striker Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Wildsmith and Dawson to stay I would have thought. I would also keep Sasso for another year, able squad player and with the addition of a quality CB in the summer, should have enough cover at CB for next season with 4. I would like to see Semedo stay in some capacity, but sentiment aside, his playing days are over. Maybe coaching? The rest can go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darklord Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 I think Sasso may stay on as back up. Keep the keepers but rest can go. Semedo maybe a coaching role but his time as a sheff wed player is done I feel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be happy if we only offered contracts to Wildsmith & Dawson. I know we all love Semedo but he's way past his best & when injuries stretch our resources we need better than him & Sasso.

bobowl Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Starting from nothing seems a little extreme. This team has proved it can make the top 6 for 2 seasons. It would probably be a good idea to just tinker with the team a little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james o connor Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Id retain Wildsmith and Sasso but the rest can go. I dont think Dawson is or every will be up to the job and at his age he needs to be playing games and carving a career for himself. Having watched Kean several times at Mansfield, he should be on our bench whilst Wildsmith gets games elsewhere. Ive never got the Semedo love in. He should have been released two seasons ago and certainly should go this times. The rest arent good enough either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dagmeister Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Wildsmith - definitely Dawson and Sasso - maybe Rest - Release Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barr Grylls Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Wildsmith only for me. Rest can go. Kean on bench wildsmith on loan to progress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheffield_dave Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Wildsmith and Dawson to stay but both to go out on loan. I've always been of the mindset that Semedo is too valuable off the pitch to let go, but I've changed that now. Time to go and welcome him back when he's ready to hang up his boots, a-la Bullen. I would be disappointed if we kept Sasso. In my mind we need to make a firm decision on Hutch being a centre back, which allows us to go out and spend decent money on a proper leader in the middle and gives us 3 centre backs of Lees, Loovens and Hutch. I'd rather then go out and get another quality CB to partner Lees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
