Who stays? Who goes?

Elmo will stay as long as Steve Bruce stays - the two have a good working relationship whatever league we are in. If Chester plays like he did yesterday I can't see PL teams queuing up!

 

Chester reminds me of Justin whittle, not many go past him but his passing/distribution over 10-12 yards is awful

 

Ings went past him as if he had lead in his boots yesterday. His seeming lack of application or desire to win was typical of the whole teams performance

 

I think our cm pairing had led boots on as well as they never seemed to get near burnleys midfield

 

It will be interesting to see if Brucey gets a new 1st choice keeper or goes with Greegsy who is good enough for the championship IMO.

My Team:

McGregor

Rosenior-Chester-Dawson-Brady

Meyler---------Quinn
Diame

Ince---Jela---Aluko
​

Then you've got Snodgrass and Elmo who could play on the right as well, Brady and Robertson can play LW depending on who stays. In that team you've got fighters as well as quality and I can't see how it wouldn't walk the Championship.

​

 

There is so much uncertainty with our club been relegated first of all will SB leave ? will the allams sell? or if he stays will he put any more money in for signings, How much will support fall, I think quite a lot (thousands). players leaving well when wages are been halved most who get a offer from another club for me Elmo, Robertson, Huddlestone, Hernandez, ndoye also depending on how much clubs are prepared to take a risk Diame and Snodgrass. Will lower premier league clubs go for our two older players Dawson and Jelavic. So many changes then it would depend how all the new players gel together and how much we have to spend on them. Allam could even say you survive on free transfers and youngsters who knows it will be an interesting summer

 

Would be gob smacked if Diame and Jelevic are here. They will be off.

 

Or Allam could say "we need to be back in the pl for the new to deal so there's x amount to do it"

 

I pretty much expect Jela to be but Diame is injured, nobody will buy him

 

very true

 

Jelavic's just as injured.

 

I meant as in Diame is going to have an op so won't even be able to train until late pre-season so I can't see anyone risking that. Jela will probably play against Spurs and will be fit for the entire pre season.

 

Jelavic will also need an op. He has a long term knee injury and we keep trying to get him on the pitch. We need to gamble with the fit players we have left.

 

Well if he has a similar opp I can't see him leaving either, extremely rare for teams to intentionally buy injured players. Could be great news for us as nobody in the Championship will have a squad with our quality.

 

If we went down it'd be nice to see us give the likes of Watson,Townsend, Luer and Lenihan a go, but I can't see it.

 

Only just turned 30. I think we could get 5-6m for him.

 

He's had the op. He's supposed to be sorted now.

 

The problem we have is our reserves are playing at such a poor standard compared to the football league that it must be difficult to judge them.

 

Here's who I think will leave, one way or the other;

McGregor, Oxley.

Dawson, Elmo, Chester, Curtis, Robertson.

Ince, Diame, Livermore, Huddlestone, Snodgrass.

Jela, Hernandez, N' Doye.

Leaving a likely starting 11 of;

Harper.

Rosey, Macca, McGuire, Dudgeon

Meyler, Bruce, Quinn, Brady

Aluko. ?

It'll be a total rebuild job IMO.
