Who would you sell? (2 Viewers)

The whole premise of this thread is based on selling our best players, a ludicrous and foolish strategy. They are all under contract and I believe the club will be build on that strong foundation.

The players most likely to go are BTA, Allen, Collins and either Bidwell or DaSilva.

I am not convinced Sheaf will go, sort of thinking that to be 50/50.

Do not forget Binks and Lati have transfer value too and they are probably easy to replace.

Was it foolish when Brentford sold their front 3 and got promoted the next season?

It's not wild to talk about that scenario. It's open knowledge the plan was always likely to involve selling to reinvest.

Last season's cup run and Vik paying out twice sounds like we'll not have to in the summer, which would be a win.

but keep in mind none of those three are gonna be in a rush to sign new contracts if we're in this league next year.

For me, MVE will go this summer. There's often talk that he's homesick/has a long-distance relationship.

I think a European side of PL would be tempted to gamble on him. Not quite sure what we'd get.

Out of the three, I'd sell him because he's not worth £15m

yeah a brace, that was Feb, what arent we doing to feed Simms like we were last season? is it that EMC and rudi are now scoring more instead?

He's being asked to play with his back to goal 35-40 meters out and bring others into the game. Its clearly not his strong point but any striker is going too struggle to score playing that way.

Selling Rudoni shouldn't be considered at all unless someone has spotted his potential given how young he is and puts in a massive offer. Even then would it be best for him not playing every game and learning from Lampard?

We need to keep Wright if we're serious about constantly improving our squad. His injury affected his season but he is still an international striker who scores goals. What we need us to bring in a better partner for him.

MVE? More than just a defender who gets us out of the shite with his pace. Can be untouchable on the wing and his long throws are a bonus. But if a big offer comes in for him and he wants to leave? Bye MVE and thanks for the memories. Would give us the money to strengthen our defence and maybe leave enough to bring in a GK to compete with Dovin. Would be very happy to see him stay though.

This will be Lampard’s first chance of shaping the squad the way he wants it. Can see several players leaving even if we stay in the Championship. Maybe go back to having a few loans. Should be a very interesting summer.
