Barnsley - Nottingham Forest
One player who stood out for me yesterday was Joe Worrall. I know, and so does he, that he made a mistake against Derby but he has been very good for most of the season.
I hope that Forest supporters don’t hound him out the City Ground and see him end up with 3 other ex Reds who were apparently not good enough for us but seem to doing ok at Sheffield United in the top half of the premiership.

I'm a bit worried that Leeds might come in for him (they have Ben White to replace) and I'm even more worried that he might actually fancy going up there to have a go with them. 

Premier League Leeds, with Bielsa in charge, are going to be a big draw for a lot of prospective players.

If - as is more likely than not - we find ourselves coming up short I believe that we will need to wheel & deal. We have established - for the purposes of FFP - that the sale of Carvalho is not as beneficial as the sale of others. This being the case it seems to me that either Cash or Worrall are the most likely players to be sacrificed.

Both being young and if sold, of maximum gain in terms of FFP.

But which one Pap?
Could end up being the $64,000 question this Summer.

I think you mean that sales if players from our academy count 100% to FFP for that year, while other players it's spread over remaining years of contract.
FFP is spread over a 3 year period so not necessarily a problem, or the only solution isn't to sell Cash / Worrall.

On top of that, with other clubs basically getting away with murder (Derby, Shef Wed, Villa, etc) and EFL doing nothing then F*ck FFP. We will be screwed if we are the only ones playing by the rules.

Other than Cash or Worrall who is going to generate big bucks?
That was my only criterion.

Surely FFP is a goner?

Rules may change but the principle ain’t going away.

Either or. Both should command big fees. Leave it till the end of the window and see what offers come in. Cash is probably going to be the most in demand I would've thought.

I think Cash would be our biggest miss. He has become absolutely crucial to our attacking play as well as shutting out most teams on their left side. Look how we look going forward with an alright RB in Jenkinson as opposed to an outstanding one in Cash. 

Worrall also superb this year, his character would be missed as much as his CB ability. A fit Benoloune is probably about as good as Joe in fairness, albeit somewhat lacking in discipline sometimes.  

If we lose Cash it will be  north of £10 million. DirtyLeeds would be admitting one of their best players this season is not good enough for prem though in Ayling if they were in for Cash. West Ham struggling at RB due to injuries and Fredricks not living up to expectations yet. (Money plus Fredricks could be a decent move for both).

Lolley might not get as much interest now due to shin splints. Yates is worth a good few quid though.

Maybe Sheff Utd will buy Jenkinson, Heff and Bong to take them into Champions League instead. 

Stranger things have happened:Mcgoldrick, Sharpe, Osborne and Robinson might make it into Europe after all??? Mental that!
