Owl Rly Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 I’ve completely forgotten about Pudil. Is he injured? Or just terrible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0114 Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 Westwood has been brilliant since his return but is he luxury we can no longer afford? 35 this year and probably one of our highest earners? Palmer is the only one I’d definitely try to keep. Good age, good squad player and definitely not a high earner. Also think he’s an underrated player who takes a lot of stick. Once our player of the year and was a key player in the brick wall defence under Stuart Gray. Since being made first choice at RB and not asking him to be a wing back, and also not changing him with Baker every game I think he’s one player whose really stepped up.

SallyCinnamon Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 Squad next season should look like this: Dawson, Wildsmith Palmer, Lees, Iorfa, Thorniley, Penney, Fox Reach, Bannan, Hutchinson, Boyd Forestieri, Joao, Winnall, Fletcher All the out of contracts can go except Palmer and Boyd. Think Palmer is a useful squad player and actually not that bad. Boyd I’m not sure about but think Bruce will try and keep him on as he knows him and knows what he can bring to the side. With a heavy heart by to Westwood and Lee. Fantastic servants for us, but time to be a bit more ruthless. I’d try and offload Van Aken, Pelupessy Rhodes and Nuhiu if anyone will take them. That means we need a new right back or centre half depending on where we intend to play Iorfa. New LB, Lazaar may be the answer if he proves his worth. Try and sign Hector permanently. Midfield i’d look to get Onomah on loan again. Not worked for him so far, but Bruce likes him and he’s not getting in that Spurs side. We need another midfielder, a beast who isn’t going to get bullied. A pacy winger, Aarons perhaps if turns out to be good. Then a quick striker who knows where the net is. Easier said than done with FFP! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bradowl Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 Probably good that the listed players are out of contract, most are not good enough or past the there best and injury prone. I'd possibly offer Westwood and Palmer new deals but wouldn't be too bothered if we didn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danish Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Wouldn't be shocked to see them all leave. Westwood is the one player we could do with keeping but we might need him off the books to bring the wage bill down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of interest what reason would you have for extending players that haven’t played in over a year ? Why would 31 year old Grammy hip lee be worth keeping on?

Kanye West Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 I'd keep Palmer + Westwood then see how Lee and Hooper get on in the next few months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gurujuan Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Out of all those players who are out of contract, including the loanees, I’d keep, in order of preference 1....Hector (might be beyond us) 2....Westwood 3....Palmer 4....Onomah (depending on what see in the remaining games) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pay as you play = no risk. If they play, we pay, if they're unfit we don't. Also if they retire through injury there is probably insurance to be had...

stocksyuto Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Keep Westwood but then again we always do well finding a good GK, everyone else can leave if it means we can build a team do it,If for is stopping us then I don't kno just have toq wait and see what happens . 1 things for sure this should be a busy preseason111 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, if we do that, we really need to get the other two out playing games, or they won’t be ready to take over. I’d suggest, send Wildsmith out on loan until January, and then bring him back, and send Dawson out. Whichever one remains, also needs to be keeping in the U23 games where possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They would still be on a basic wage. it would just be lower then normal with massive appearance fee bonuses in their contracts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK Kieran, you've not played for 18 months and keep getting close and breaking down. We'd love to continue to help with your rehabilitation. So either we release you and you'd probably have to go it alone until you get fit. Or, stay here, use our facilities. We'll give you a year contract play as you pay. If you make 10 consecutive appearances your contract reverts to the terms you had previously in terms of basic and bonuses. Not that difficult to grasp is it lads?
