[um bongo molongo]

With CH seemingly giving a few players the chance to play for their futures, who would you keep?

Here's mine:

Keep:
Walton
Greer
Ince
Bruno
Kayal
Stephens
Crofts
March
Lua Lua
Baldock
O'Grady

Out of contract/on loan but keep if we can:
Tex
Dunk
Calderon

Out of contract or on loan - release:
Angkergren
Bennett
Halford
Hughes
Best
CMS
Ledesma
Agustein

For sale/get rid:
Stockdale
Holla
JFC

 

[seagullsovergrimsby]

Hughton will need to sign at least a dozen players over the summer. Massive clearout required.

I'm pretty sure Dunks contract runs longer than this summer

Think it's time we got a proper right back that can defend rather than the usual disjointed system....Bruno will only get worse as the years go by.

That's not a very accurate site, his contract is until 2018

That's good news. Means only tex really as a potential negotiation (probably unlikely). Assuming calde will be offered and will sign.

Only thing I'd massively disagree with is keeping all 3 keepers - we either need to give Walton a proper run or sell stockdale and bring someone in. Stockdale is not good enough.

You need three keeps to cover illness and injury. Casper seems happy being third choice whilst helping Walton progress. Although Stockdale is prone to a clanger it's risky to throw a 19/ 20 year old lad in at no.1. I think Stockdale is adequate as no.1. We just need a much tighter, meaner defence ala last season.

 

[London Irish]

Here's mine:

Keep:
Walton
Greer
Ince
Dunk
Bruno
JFC
Kayal
Stephens
March
Lua Lua
Baldock

Fence (depends on rest of season form)
Stockdale - maddening, a good keeper but the amount of mistakes shows questionable temperament
Ledesma

Out of contract/on loan but keep if we can:
Tex
Calderon
Bennett
Halford
CMS

Out of contract or on loan - release:
Angkergren - why is he still here?
Hughes - too old
Best - too slow
Agustein - disaster

For sale/get rid:
Holla - legs have gone
Crofts - techinically not good enough
O'Grady - too slow, not a natural goalscorer

The emergency loan system is very fluid in that eventuality and it gives the opportunity to work with a talented keeper from another club.

You'd keep CMS? Your credibility is shot.

The emergency loan system is very fluid in that eventuality and it gives the opportunity to work with a talented keeper from another club.

But why bother with the emergency loan system when you already have a player who is already happy being third choice and is helping Walton develop? Walton needs experience around him to continue development and we need three senior keepers. It'd be senseless to release Casper,

 

[Tony Meolas Loan Spell]

Radical and i mean radical overhaul

March keep
Jfc keep (just)
Ince
Stephens
KLL
Dunk
Stockdale
Beram captain

Send ALL loans back. Maye just maybe see if we can get Tex.

Cog ballsack holla. Offer them momey to piss off. Or tell the agents find them another club they are not part of the plans mot good enough.

Tear up the year given to Bruno.

Offer calde another year because he IS a useful squad player can play anywhere to cover an injury or suspension.

Bin off all those out on contract kemi, cms, greer,hughes(?) Maximenko, crofts etc

The time for what they did in the past has gone. Massive massive overhaul required.

Walton under contract so is excused the cull plus he is a decent back up.

 

[Giraffe]

If you want to go up you have to sign players that are either premiership quality or can grow to be so. That's what Gus did. So on that basis I would cull more and sign some quality.


Walton - keep
Greer - get rid
Ince - keep
Bruno - get rid
Kayal - keep
Stephens - get rid
Crofts - get rid
March - keep
Lua Lua - keep
Baldock - get rid
O'Grady - get rid
Tex - try to sign but it won't happen
Dunk - keep
Calderon - keep as player coach
Angkergren - get rid
Bennett - keep
Halford - get rid
Hughes - get rid
Best - get rid
CMS - keep
Ledesma - get rid
Agustein - get rid
Stockdale - keep
Holla - get rid
JFC - keep

So we need to sign quality in the following areas:

Right back, centre halves (x2), quality midfielders(x2), quality strikers (x2)

Keep CMS if we can!? The Board and Hughton will have to make the most of a finite budget, and the money saved by releasing lower league level CMS will be very helpful. He's rarely done anything of note for the Club, and he's only going to get even slower and more injury prone.
