Let me know if I've left anyone out. What does everybody think we need in terms of numbers and positions? Specifically, who would you like to see here? Who should we sell? Who should we get rid of?
Perhaps this could be stickied? It's very hard (for me) to say anything until we actually know who's leaving. So much conjecture unfortunately, or fortunately if you enjoy it!
lots of twists and turns yet regarding anyone. nothing official has happened yet apart from 3 signings...things should become much clearer in 2 or 3 weeks when the players start to report back for pre-season training or not...
Monk has said he wants him. De Guzman has said he would prefer to join us. De Guzman also said that Villareal have sat him down and said they'd like to keep him. He has been an integral part of the Dutch team who are having a good World Cup so his price most likely has gone up and there is bound to be interest from other clubs. In my view, if he moves we are the favourites to land him but it isn't a foregone conclusion.
He was at Hearts and plays for Scotland U-19s also. Was considered their brightest young talent. Is a ball player apparently...think Ki. Was about to break into their 1st team and play alongside his elder brother when we snapped him up.....has a chance of coming through. It was Jay Fulton who came through at Falkirk.
We've been paying his wages the last 2 years I believe. You could say we have added value to their asset who was left totally out in the cold for them. Obviously we have benefited from his goals and De Guzman has benefited as he is now in the Dutch team and has good options in the future.
Players we are most likely to sign include..... 1) Marvin Emnes - £1m (Cover for ST, AM and Wing) 2) Jonathan De Guzman - £?? (CM & AM) 3) Johnny Williams - £4m - £6m (AM and possibly CM) 4) Gylfi Siggurdsson - £6m - £12m (AM) 5) Stephen Kingsley - £500k - £1m (LB) anymore?
Sorry, no disrespect intended to the OP but this is presumptuous on multiple fronts. We really don't know who's going/ staying. Who's to say someone doesn't come in for say, Hernandez? Routledge has had a great season. A club may well put a cheeky bid in. We just don't know. "Could be off" may as well be put against every name other than perhaps Leon. I can understand if this has been put up with a view to amending it every time changes occur to keep posters updated on comings and goings so apologies if that's the intention. Also the 'reported' fees and wages for Gomis are just that - reported. Lots of conjecture. It's likely we gave him a big signing-on sweetener but I'd be surprised if our wage structure has again been broken. But I don't know and until it's made public (and it may never be) nobody really knows.
