This is on the assumption we stay up so possibly a rhetorical question.

Of our on-loan players who do you think we will lose, who do you think we could hang on to and who would you get shot of?

I think the full list is:

Ranocchia
Elabdellaoui
N'Diaye
Markovic
Niasse
Mbokani

I was just going to start a markovic thread. When's his deal at Liverpool run out?
If we stay up and Silva stays, he'd be a fool not to sign for us.

Get rid of Mbokanl and keep the rest as long as long as Elab keeps his dick in his pants.

In order our priorities should be,,,

Ranocchia - Use the Harry money (if he goes) to cover his fee/wages
Markovic - Use a trade of Robertson to Liverpool to ensure we get him
Niasse - Fills our need for a big durable striker
N'Diaye - Strong midfield presence

Not bothered....

Elab (unless Moses is not back to form).
Mbokani...has good scoring record elsewhere but injuries are a problem.

I wouldn't keep Elabdellaoui either. Moses will be first choice and this guy seems too much of a dick to sit happily in the reserves, ready for his chance.

I was just going to start a markovic thread..

I was going to start another thread - assuming we stay up, who do we think will go to Villa? I wouldn't be surprised by Meyler, Dawson, Curtis, Elmo, McGregor. Any others? I know there's a debate over Abel but for me he's not a £12m Premier League striker and I'd take that for him every day and they're one of the only clubs I can think of who'd pay it.

Ranocchia (I think he will end up at a better club than ours in EPL, unless we do have an option to buy)
Elabdellaoui (Quite like him, would be back up to Moses)
N'Diaye (I think we would have a chance to buy, and is worth taking on)
Markovic (Fear he might end up at a better EPL club, but would like him, maybe as suggested might be part of a deal for Robbo if these stories are true)
Niasse (If not to high price then I would take him)
Mbokani (Let him go back)

Meylers out for a year isn't he. I doubt Brucey would take Davies, hardly friends and villa didn't like him anyway.
Isn't he interested in mcgregor already?
 
If the club looks like continuing to be a bit of a train wreck I wouldn't be surprised to see all of them looking for out.

Niasse if my memory serves me right, wasnt he a loan with a option to buy for 10 million at the end of the season if we stay up.
Ranocchia sure i read somewhere that Chelsea had been keeping an eye on him with next season in mind.

I seem to remember something being reported about Niasse having an option to buy, but wasn't sure whether a figure had been put on it. There were rumours that Chelsea were interested to buy Ranocchia, whether there is any truth in it only TWT.
 
For me I would go with :
Ranocchia - definitely put an offer in
Elabdellaoui - let him go
N'Diaye - definitely put an offer in
Markovic - would definitely have him at right price (would look at something like Robbo and £5m for Markovic and flannaghan)
Niasse - possible straight swap for Harry (he will be going to Everton in summer)
Mbokani - not a chance
 
A lot of people getting excited about selling off Robertson and others. I think keeping our better players would be the ideal outcome. Obviously if Liverpool come knocking fair enough, but we shouldn't be actively hoping for it.
