Cicero Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 I'd say Begovic, Terry, Matic, Costa and Batshauyi all need to leave. From the current squad I'd say Aina, Zouma, and Loftus-Cheek need to be loaned out to premier league sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFCMadLad Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Lucas, Sakho (although I'd like him to sort his differences with Klopp) and Sturridge (who I'd love to keep fit and stay) will probably go this summer. The rest I'd like to keep and build on. Our squad depth is poor in comparison to the other top 6 clubs so we don't need to be having a mass clearout. Just add 2 or 3 top quality first 11 team players and probably 2 or 3 up and coming young talents to develop and we should be ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IgnisExcubitor Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 A LB, CB and a pacey winger like Mane or a striker who can score goals against smaller sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Takyon Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Pretty much the entire squad will leave Ranocchia, Niasse, Elabdellaoui, Mbokani, Markovic and N'Diaye will all go back to their parent clubs. The Allams will sell anyone they can get a decent fee for. Expect to see Maguire, Roberston. Grosicki, Clucas and Hernandez go. Maloney will be released as well. That'll leave us with Jakupovic, Marshall, McGregor, Odubajo, Dawson, Davies, Tymon, Elmohamady, Henriksen, Mason, Huddlestone, Meyler, Evandro, Diomande and Keane in the Championship. Wouldn't be surprised to see Marshall, McGregor, Tymon, Evandro or Huddlestone leave either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HK85 Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Boro gone as well. I'd take Gibson, although not before a few others. Probably take a go at Adama Traore as well and hope he develops a football brain. If not, you'd make the money back on him with him being young.

Has all the skill in the world in the opponent's half but once he gets in to the box, his brain melts and his feet freeze. I'd hate to have him on my team. All the hope in the world when he gets on the ball and then absolute despair when you see his end product fail time and time again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Ben Gibson's stock has done wonders this season. I expect a big move for him in the summer. The rest I expect will stay at Middlesborough or move to a club overseas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dickie Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Khaziri and Kirchoff, I wouldn't say no to Cattermole to play 50/50 in the midfield for Whelan they are about equal. Also wouldn't mind O'Shea for depth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Stan Posted May 9, 2017 Administrator Share Posted May 9, 2017 Cattermole would fit right in at Stoke. I'd also have a look at George Friend from Middlesbrough as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Forgot about Gaston Ramirez. I imagine somebody will take a gamble on him because of his technical ability. Maybe Adama Traore too but his fitness and end product is a long way off from being good enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber Dan+ Posted May 9, 2017 Subscriber Share Posted May 9, 2017 I'm glad we dodged the Ramirez bullet. Would've been another flop here I'm sure. Ben Gibson is supposedly our top transfer target. Would leave Adama. So unproductive. Great dribbler of the ball but very little else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 From Sunderland I'd take Pickford. Middlesbrough i'd take Gibson Hull (my prediction to drop) i'd take Maguire & Robertson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toony Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Ben Gibson, think that's it unless Palace go down. Pickford is a good keeper but also a complete knob so wouldn't touch him with a 10 foot barge pole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honey Honey Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 Stay First 11 - Ciaran Clark, Gayle, Ritchie, Shelvey Stay Challenge First Team - Dummett, Lascelles, Hayden, Diame, Perez, Mbemba, Elliott, Yedlin, Darlow, Atsu Let Go With A Handshake - Tim Krul, Hanley, Lazaar, Anita, Haidara, Gouffran, Jesus Gamez, Daryl Murphy, Sammy Ameobi, Mitrovic, De Jong, Saivet, Riviere, Thauvin Let Go With The Middle Finger - Colback Shit we will need a lot of signings lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber Dan+ Posted May 12, 2017 Subscriber Share Posted May 12, 2017 Mitrovic has been a disappointment. I remember being disappointed we didn't sign him as we were linked at the time but it definitely looks a bullet dodged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honey Honey Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 He isn't a goalscorer, he doesn't think like one, he doesn't move like one, he doesn't finish like one. If he was 1 on 1 with the keeper he would probably miss at least half the time. He might improve with age since he is only 22. He's currently too inconsistent to warrant a first team place and that is what he needs. If he played week in week out he might iron out some of his shit with the right coaching. He could probably be a 1 in 3 Premier League striker. He scored a goal for Serbia the other month where he looked completely unrecognisable. His speed, his finish. I'd bet he will go on and do well somewhere abroad. I've just realised I used he a lot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFCMike Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 Stay in first 11- Wijnaldum, Coutinho, Mane, Lallana, Matip, Keep for the squad- Karius, Clyne, Lovren, Milner, Firmino, Gomez, Henderson, Grujic, Mignolet, Can, Origi Sell/let go- Manninger, Sturridge, Klavan, Moreno, Lucas, Ings, Stewart, First 11 needs some major work if we have any ambition about us. A lot of what we've got are just squad players at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can tell he's a decent player and you certainly can't fault his effort but his quality just isn't good enough. We definitely need a new striker, I don't think we've got one good enough to play in Benitez's system in the Premier League. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 Great to see Gayle has been warmed too. Always had the ability, just needed to be put in the right system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honey Honey Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 I think he has earned his shot but his injury problems could be an issue. We need to get the right number 10 behind Gayle. Sometimes Diame and Perez wouldn't turn up and that would effect him. I think Isco, Thomas Muller or Dybala would get the best out of him. Oops, fell into talksport mode for a second there.
