It looks like Murphy wants a Small Squad :

BBM:

‘The smaller the squad, the more it aligns having a culture of improvement and players having a strong opportunity to play. It allows younger players the opportunity to grow and play. If we have too many players and they don’t play, it’s a contradiction to the way I see

Said a few weeks ago that the squad is too big.

We will have a small squad but full of talent and only players that buy in to the new style.

I hope he keeps a few experienced players to guide the youth.

But I'm excited about finally having a young, dynamic team.

And me. But our medical staff need to step up and manage our players properly. They have been hopeless recently. BBM has qualifications in this department so they had better be aware.

Agree. To play the way he wants, BBM will demand high fitness levels.

Have to make sure that happens.

Squad is way too bloated and I can see several players leaving

Robinson I would be amazed if he stays, Dalaand, Chambers, Etete, NG and Hovarth will all be gone if we can get any sort of fees for them

Obviously Salech will be sold if we get a big, big offer from anyone

I hope we hang onto Salech and that he has a great season continuing on from last season. He is one player that will frighten the shit out of league one defenders.

I think he’s got exactly what BBM will want in terms of attitude as well. Always gives everything for the shirt
