Sorry guys had a very senior moment hit the post button before completing.

So start again
Keep hearing on here about a big clear out but MON will be restricted as to who he can jettison prior to the new season.
As i see it the following players contract are up end of June 2019,
Pele
Bonatini
Colback
Janko
Goncalves
Ward
Wague
Henderson
Fuentes
The following year june 2020
Ansarifard
Yacob
Osborn
Murphy
Bridcutt
Robinson
Dawson
Watson
Benalouane
Guedioura
Milosevic
Steele
There is a further eleven two years after that.
With this in mind how will this restrict MON getting in the players he wants for his own style of football.

I'm not sure all of those players contracts expire this summer. Some of them are here for longer I think.

Here's the list that need to go
Pants
Steele
Smith
Henderson
Heffle
Wague
Byrom
Dawson
Beneloun
Osborn
Clough
Pele
Concalves
Yates
Colback
Bridcutt
Geddy
Watson
Ward
Cummings
Murphy
Grant
Soudani
Anserfarad
Bonatini
Ariybi
Plus youngsters like gomis and edserand quite a few others that are twenty plus and simply won't make it
That's that's twenty six players and yet some think we had a good squad?
That's a squad in itself and basically is crap,either too old,injury prone or simply not good enough

2 star me and you have seen this lot all season,how much have they let us down? And what would you get for them in the transfer market?
It's an appalling squad just thrown together without a care for the future.

You are so right ff79.
I still think oneil is the man to flush out this squad. His type of player are grafters and winners. Remember his teams at leicester the likes of steve walsh, matt elliot, taggart, robbie savage, neil lennon etc. Not the best of players but massive in character. Oneil was not liked in his first year at Leicester either. whether those characters still exist in the modern game is another question????

All well and good getting those type of players in Rutland but it ain’t 1992 anymore.when oneill gets the sack the new more modern coach/manager has a load of players with no flair or forward thinking and will have to overhaul the team again.a more modern manager would be able to turn this team with a few tweaks into a decent team and a lot of manager would love to have the squad we have.
Ff nice of you to say it was thrown together,so does that mean karanka was a good manager to have us up there in 5th at one point and then just before leaving a couple of points out of the playoffs?
You also moaned about the football and was happy when he got sacked,are you being entertained now?
Be careful what you wish for

We were going knowhere under karanka and this squad will go knowhere under any manager.
Simply a squad of has beens,if it's so good Sutton we should be able to get a fair bit for them in the transfer market.lol
The squad lacks pace,has four poor goalkeepers,half are always injured and most lack any ambition to do well.

Ff, Soudani was a good player for us untill his injury, whether or not he becomes injury prone who knows.

Bonatini is proven at Championship level and just needs some games to get up to speed.

Aririby has speed, and can score, he has not been given a chance, if his speed can be harnessed he ckuld be a good Championship player.

Yates is one for the future, if he is used properly he will save the club a lot of money in the future.

Sutton so those sort of players didn’t work for Cardiff last year , Lincoln this year and Burnley for about the last 6 years then? Seem to remember Burnley getting Into the europa league 2ssasons ago with ‘those sort of players “

Steve Bruce, allardyce and warnock have all had ongoing success with a brand of football. It can be done with the right players.

I know we’ve got zero reason to trust in the judgement of ‘the club’ but we must try and do so. If we drive O Meol out now it’s going to be a disaster. I didn’t want AK to go and I didn’t think MON was the right appointment to optimise that squad that we have. We need to unite rather than pursue a Pyrrhic victory on who was right or wrong about AK’s departure . I can’t believe that with the right players we won’t have a chance in the 2nd tier of football under MON.

We liked AK because we were quite hard to beat but let’s be honest the football wasn’t great just as it wasn’t under warbo. It’d be better to stop calling the style of football as that isn’t the issue in my opinion. If I do question MON it’s more along the lines of the team he selects because actually I do think we have 11 O Neil type players at the club now. Personally I think a lot of the barracking stems from leaving out Carvalho. He doesn’t have what it takes and would have sat out games under AK too.

If our current form lasts the next 4 games MON will be gone. Wouldn’t surprise me if Marinakis hasn’t already started looking.He wants success and will be ruthless until he gets it.

I think that style belongs in the past, you say some managers have success with it when they have the right players, we have not got the right players and Martin is still getting the team to play it.

That just does not make sense.

It doesn’t make sense bringing him in LC. I don’t think he’s playing a hand he doesn’t have I think he’s playing the only way he knows. That’s where the club misjudged things a bit I think.

After the clamour to play Yates, are we writing him off already?

Scouse Yates a young lad but his 1st touch doesn’t inspire, it’s a pass at the moment
