Ulloa will and should go. If anyone offers £5mplus for him I'd rip his hand off.

Need to change the way we play, inject some much needed pace into the attack and stop expecting one man, however big or strong to hold the ball up on his with little or no support.

I suspect the changes might be more sweeping that that, and perhaps not always in line with what we want.

Will Ulloa stay? Will Dunk? Buckley? Is Greer good for another season? Has any other club spotted the potential of March or Ince?

True, it could be a very interesting summer. However I think most of the young players will stay. March and Ince have been tied down to long contracts which was good business by the club so if there are clubs after them they'll come with a hefty price tag. Ulloa might go if we get offered a ridiculous fee but otherwise can't see the club selling. As for Greer I guess it depends on the quality of CB we get in as to whether he's still a regular starter or not. Of course some of the outs are pure guesswork but I really can't see Upson waiting around for a contract offer whilst all the predicted changes go on.

CMS is a very good football player and exciting to watch

My top 5 to keep and build around next season:

Dunk
Ince
Stephens
Crofts
March

Obviously I'd want CMS & Ulloa to stay as well, unless we're offered the requisite amount of Cashish.

...................New Keeper..........................
Bruno ......Greer.....Dunk/Upson....... New LB
.......................Ince.................................
..........Stephens........Crofts.......................
March.................... Lua-Lua/Buckley/Hoskins/CMS
.......................Ulloa...............................

Out:

- Koosh
- Ward - possibly back to Wolves
- Agustien
- Rodriguez
- Spanish Dave
- Andrews - back to Bolton
- Ankergren
- Brezovan

I think we will need:
- New keeper
- 1 or 2 new fullbacks
- New winger(to replace LuaLua)
- Possibly a new striker if formation is jiggled a bit.
- A few DS players moving into the first team.


With Greer/Upson/Dunk at the back, Stephens/Crofts/Ince in midfield March starting as a winger and Ulloa forward I think the spine is already there, we just need some quality additions to fill the gaps.

I think we will keep Orlandi myself.

Granted he has been utter toilet in the last few games, however when fit can be a game changer and those players don't come cheap. Not saying for me he would be a starter but I think we need to be careful how many players we choose to release.

Agree with that lot apart from Ulloa. Think he'll go too.
Can see it being a wildly different squad to this years.

And I think the opposite. Just need to add a couple midfielders, a centre back, a goalkeeper and a striker (or two if Leo goes)

Provisional ins:
Clayton - Huddersfield
Bennett - Norwich
Sidwell - Free
Harriett - Chartlon
Barnes - Season Loan
Wood - Season Loan
Federici - Reading
And a CB

I'm not sure whose on what contracts and whose are due to expire but purely based on what I have seen this and last season I would release or sell the following

TK He's not with us any more and hasn't been since he started bleating on about playing in the prem, the irony is he's not good enough for the prem league!
Calde- LOVE the bloke but just not good enough for us to progress, need to keep him at the club as an assistant coach or youth team coach staff without doubt
Buckley- My fave player but he is way too injury prone and we could get some decent money for him
Orlandi- Not good enough for me, even before the injury
Lopez- Probably better off in Segunda now
Rodriguez-Not good enough I think he's proved this many times.
Agustein- Doesn't seem as though his heart is into playing pro football, think we have found out why he has spent most of his career loaned out unfor.
Brez-Sexy Pete enough is enough, go and get some regular first team action in league 1
JFC- This has been a tough one as Im very pro youth talent coming through but he has not improved this season and isn't likely to improve, too light weight
Andrews- Not bothered about him returning
Ward- Take him or leave him

Im sure this will get rinsed but its just my opinion.

I think we need

A new centre back with some pace.
An attacking midfielder who can create from the centre of the park
A winger right or left who can get behind the full backs and who isn't constantly injured
A first team/back up goalie
A new right/left back Ward been ok but there's better out there for me.

Offer Upson x1 year deal

I agree with most of that but Ward take him or leave him? Been up there with Upson for me and scored some crucial goals. Can't see him returning now Wolves have got promoted though.

Pretty much agree with all that, expect would give Hoskins another year, and Kaz 2 years.

I would also off load Buckley is a sizeable offer came in for him.

The rest are fair enough, but that one's just bizarre.

My only reservation is that he will want top wages it wasn't based on ability or the fact he has had a great season
