Who I hope is on the leave list this Summer.
Would anyone have anything different?:
Barry
Livermore
Evans
Robson-Kanu
Phillips
Pole
Sturridge
Chadli
Myhill
Not arsed either way (I think they would be very good championship players):
McClean
Nyom
Rondon
If fit Morrison is one of the best players in the Championship and never lets us down.
A must keep in my book.
Livermore,
I think the fact that our fortunes have dramatically reversed since he arrived would not have escaped the attention of our Chinese owners who are normally by nature very superstitious.
Why Myhill? He hasn't put a foot wrong all season.
I'd keep Phillips ahead of McClean. I doubt mcClean would be a very good player in any division.
I wouldn't keep Morrison. Far too injury prone.
Chadli would be a great asset if we could get 30 games out of him.
I wouldn't keep Nyom. Best you can say about him is that he is enthusiastic.
Robson Kanu may be a decent back up striker in the division.
I'd keep Rondon but I reckon we will sell for 10 million+
The Pole & Sturridge aren't ours to keep anyway.
Dawson will be coaxed away by a Prem. side unfortunately. I'd keep him if I could.
Just to explain my opinions.....
Myhill makes the list because of Taxi-gate. Looking from the outside in, I think there is something toxic in our dressing room so I would clear out all 4 of those players. Also, we have a promising young keeper (Palmer) who I think could be promoted to our number 2 spot.
Phillips, just seems to be getting worse and worse this season. Bottling challenges won't help us in the championship. He does show glimpses of quality (predominantly last season) but he is the ultimate Mr Inconsistent.
Chadli, hasn't wanted to know all season in the prem. Doubt he would in the championship. Nyom, played brilliantly for us when he had to fill in at left back for a season. I agree him and McClean aren't premiership level, but I think they could make an impact in the championship.
Robson Kanu is just devoid of any quality. Apart from that one moment in a European championship for Wales which he will dine out on for the rest of his life.
Hope you aren't right about Dawson, but fear you are. If we can keep him, I'd make him captain and build a side around him.
Foster brunt McLean
What is the point of Myhill? This bloke has been more than happy to collect a wage for doing next to nothing for years. He doesn't even make the cup team. He has no ambition or desire to play football.
We could pay someone a damn sight less for doing his roll and it wouldn't impact anything.
