Everybody else (apart from youth players like Harris, Magri, ect) to go Should bring in a relatively decent transfer fee and a huge amount of wages off the books. OUT: Henderson Halford Mokoena - Still on PL wages Ward Pearce Rocha Ben Haim - £36k p/w Lawrence - £20k p/w Mullins - £15k p/w Varney Huseklepp Kanu - £10k p/w Kitson - £20k p/w Benjani - £20k p/w I am excited to see how Appleton replaces the current squad with HIS own squad of not so highly paid fighters.
Good post Jake. I am eager to see who Appy brings in. I would absolutely love Huseklepp to stay though !! My favourite Pompey player last season .. Is there a source/link for this information ??
Unfortunately not Just random speculation Appy has said he reckons out of the current squad, 3 or 4 will stay, and these are the guys who have made the most noise about wanting to still be here next season
5 will be loanees. It's just so obvious, the rest will be players that will hopefully want to play football And not care about their wages!
I find that very hard to believe - he was on a pay as you play at Blackburn. I know Lampitt was rather profligate with CSIs money, but truthfully Cotterill wasn't, he had a small budget and did a lot with it from all accounts.
The words Kitson and Lawrence automatically spring to mind (and that was even without CSI's money)... Sorry buddy, but I think your point is void
To be fair, even if Benjani wasn't on 20k, there's plenty of other things that image could be used for. For example: "After having just avoided relegation and in the midst of financial difficulties you signed a player on £36k a week on a four year contract without an automatic salary reduction in the event of relegation?" please log in to view this image
