We need 3 central midfielders if as looks likely we go down.

Get the right quality and play offs minimum..
 
We’ll likely lose Etheridge, Manga, Bennett, Zohore, Connelly, Damour, the loanees and we know about Gunnarsson.

The nucleus of the squad will likely be unchanged- Smithies, Richards, Peltier, Cunningham, Bamba, Morrison, Ralls, Hoilett, Murphy, Reid, Paterson, Harris, Healey, Ward, NML.

That’s a decent top 10 championship squad needing 4-5 replacements.

Will though it be NW in control?

ps. After today I am now resigned to relegation - sick as the proverbial.<grr>

NW remaining in control will be the key factor in our strategy. If he stays, it'll be another attempt at promotion using his style of football, whereas if he goes, will we start developing younger players into a completely different style? Of course, finances will also be key. Lets hope the question is academic.

Etheridge and Bennett signed new 3 year deals last summer. Etheridge will interest mid to lower Prem clubs if he wants to go. We should get good money if he leaves. I think Bennett will stay unless we get an offer we can't refuse.

Ken has another to go. Unlikely to attract Prem interest. Do we cash in or keep?

Connolly's and O'Keefe's contracts are up so will go. Tomlin has a year to go. Not sure about Madine, Damour and Bogle but expect they are the same. Apart from possibly Damour, as we will need midfield cover, the others can all go. Give them packed lunches wrapped in road maps.

Anyone know of any other senior players where contracts end this year or have another year?
