Traoré was fourth choice number 10 behind Carvalho, Tufan and Ömür since January. His history of injuries and playing fewer games than Greaves in his whole career despite being much older meant he could barely play 60 mins a week. He didn’t have the legs to regularly play as a number 10 under Rosenior. He wouldn’t have the legs to play as a central midfielder under Walter.
His best bet is to go to Saudi for a nice payday.

Thanks and best wishes to all those leaving the club. Especially Doc.
Olly Green has been released. -
“In the Under-21s, Bora Aydinlik will return to parent club Fenerbahce after his loan spell ended, while Kyle Fanning, Nathan Tinsdale, Jack Leckie and Sincere Hall have all been offered fresh terms. Harry Wood, Jake Leake, Tom Nixon and Jevon Mills have seen their one-year options activated while Jake Brown, Ajay Weston, Rajdeep Palit, Joseph Johnson and Oliver Green will be released.”
Most of the lads going signed with us this season as U21s. None of them were particularly inspiring.
Never the same after his knee injury, he lost whatever pace he had, unfortunately. Good player in his first season, but I think that injury did for him.
Like most have said, sad to see the Doc go, great professional and all round good guy. I wish him all the best for the future. All the best to all released, Christie never seemed to recover back to his best after injury, and Traore, even though there is a player in there, he just didn't quite make it as a regular.
No really surprised though, I thought Ollie Green might have been kept on, but other than that nothing unexpected.

Bit quick with this one I think. But you always are keen to get a cheap point even if it blows up in your face.
No surprises in the retained list. Traore? Not for me - too much of a luxury player and probably on a high salary. Not a player to dig you out of a hole when the team is struggling
I thought Harry Vaughan would have been on the list, can't see him being physically strong enough for championship.
His contract runs to 2026, the retained list is only the out of contract players.
I remember Christie playing against Nantes at the beginning of this season and one of their players went past him like he was stood still. His pace has gone since his last injury and he struggles in the Championship.
Even in his first season, he was way more up and down than fans talk about. He had a handful of very good performances but there was a lot of meh in that too.
We've got better, he's never really been a RB as he's defensively iffy and he's just getting older/slower. That last injury seemed to take what pace he had left.
People write young players off so early. Give them till they're 22/23 and see where they are.

Agreed. Scored some class goals by getting forward and even cutting inside on his weaker left foot but he was quite average defensively.
Not writing him off, but I don't see him as a first team regular next season if we are serious about a promotion push
