The 'spine' of our current squad is Benji, Edwards, Fuchs, Shankland. If too many of them go then we are in big trouble.
So there are rumours of offers on the table for 2 of them, and i expect Edwards will be tempted back down south by MM.
So our new spine is Deniz, who i dont think is as bad as some think, K Smith as Connolly is crocked and Reynolds considering his future, then Butcher who i like, but accept we need better in the future, and Shankland could still move on.
Was feeling quite positive after a safe 9th finish and the semi final, but its all gone now!
To chuck in the mixer, could there be a bit of player power going on here? For instance Sir Lawrence clearly has looked unhappy with some of the set ups he's had to play within and McNulty also made reference to a lack of goal scoring opportunities under MM.
I think this is a good point. If the senior players are going to be kept (Reynolds, Butcher, Shanks, Connolly, Clark, etc) then I hope they are being allowed some sort of say. For instance, if the rumour is true about Courts/Ashgar, are these players will to work with Tam?
I'm hearing Charlie Mulgrew has signed.
