The 2019 Summer Clearout

[wassy04]

Yeah if we could get 10 mil probably sell although 2nd season is often where you get a big leap in performance from players signed from abroad. Do we want to miss that?

[Tricky]

Sorry if this sounds a bit over the top, I am just being brutally honest.

No matter which league we are in next season, here is my summer clearout list including loans who will go back automatically and out of contract players.

Pantilimon, Steele, Henderson, Byram, Janko, Pele, Colback, Watson, Wague, Tachstidis, Goncalves, Ward, Vellios, Murphy, Ansarifard and this one will surprise a few, Carvalho.  Personally if we are in the Championship next season I would keep both Yacob and Bridcutt but they both seem out of favour under Mon and Roy. The only loan player that I would try to bring back is Colback.

I agree with your list there Boatsy. I would also add Clough and Cummings to that list though

I can’t understand why Bridcutt hasn’t been played. He’s a good player and despite a change in management still appears to be out of favour. Surely no one could have that much of an attitude problem?

Couldn't agree more RG

And where’s Yacob?
I personally thought he was our second best defensive/holding midfielder after Colback.
Certainly above Watson, Geuddy, Yates and Pele.

It’s obvious O’Neill doesn’t like or hasn’t got a clue what to do with the more technical gifted type of player, which is another very concerning about this bloke in charge.

[Duncan Mckenzie]

The only reasonable explanation I can think of is that neither Yacob or Bridcutt are showing up well in training.

They have both proved that they can cut it at this level, so they are more than good enough in my opinion.

Do you think that’s the case Duncan?

Both Bridcutt and Yacob strike me as being very professional.

No I don't but I don't have another reasonable explanation to offer.

Fair enough, i’m not Yacob’s biggest fan but think he is more suited to the Championship at present than Pele.

[Duncan Mckenzie]

I would have no problem at all to see a starting eleven consisting of Bridcutt, Yacbob and Appiah.

I would love to see Appiah play, we have been crying out for something different up front.

One concerning aspect of the last two games for me has been that both matches have finished with a whimper and not one where we have been fighting to the death with something to play for.

Personally I'm fine not trying anything too new whilst we're still in with a shot of the playoffs, and we are (albiet an outside one).

Appiah on the bench? Maybe. But with Cash coming back I wouldn't have him in the first team.

Folk judging Pele on 2 performances too lol. After Hull it was "Pele is brilliant! why hasn't MON been starting him?!?" FFS lol.
