Sell hemed,skalak,ince,towell,kll.
I would like to see in defoe, wood, cairney, pog, tomori + winger.
I can see AK getting very frustrated and sulky in games in the PL with less timeand space
First 11:
Stockdale
Duffy
Dunk
Stephens
Knockaert
Pog
Subs:
Murray
Baldock
Sidwell
March
Hunnemaier
Stockdale Dunk, Hunemier, Knockhaert if he improves attitude when things not going well, Stevens and Kayal although poor today , Sell Skalak and Hemed as they will never get in squad and while they have some value on back of been part of promotion squad. Also Murphy and March could have part to play. Duffy also against Stoke Burnley etc but will struggle against top sides who keep ball on ground. Sidwell and Norwood as back up. The gulf is huge and we need 5/7 additions to todays side to compete. Fantastic what we have achieved but most of goals have come from hit it long or get it wide and then get in box, We will have to have a few more ideas then this
Based on what evidence?
Sadly Kayal looks a shadow of the player of last season. I'm sorry to say that I think he won't cut it. Neither will Norwood (never EPL class), Murphy, Skalak, nor Hemed.
One plus point to this indifferent end of season period is Hunemeier. He probably won't be in our starting 11 in August, but I think he's shown enough to be a squad player.
Radio Derby reporting last night that you're after Tom Ince - Very talented on his day but goes missing, not sure he's what you need but give us £10m and I'm happy
The point that many are missing is that the club isn't going to, and frankly can't afford to, offload 4,5 or 6 contracted players in favour of like for like replacements.Sadly Kayal looks a shadow of the player of last season.

I counted only Stockdale, Dunk, Knockaert and Stephens. Duffy would have made it 5. March was on the bench. Is Murphy good enough? The manager doesn't seem to think so. It's going to be a busy summer............
If the club has said goodbye come 1st September to a couple of those who have earned the right, would you consider that they've been mistreated by not being part of it?
