' SEVEN MORE PLAYERS TO LEAVE IN JANUARY '

Tue Dec 30, 2014 8:27 pm

These are the seven players I expect to leave City this January :

Fabio
Maynard
Kimbo
Guerra
Burgstaller
Berget
Velikonja

Tan wants the big earners off the wage bill.

Do you agree with those names or are there any other players in the squad that you think may leave?

Your probably right. I'd like to see fabio stay though and I'm not sure why burgerstaller hasn't been given a look in, I know we can't play everyone but to me from the few games I did see of him he looked suited to the championship, tall, strong and hard working with a decent left foot. We've been told guerras attitude is the reason he's been shunned but burgerstaller seems to have just been forgotten about!

Don't want to see Fabio leave,but apart from that no real worries. Guerra never had a chance so you can't miss something you never had :roll:

Are any of those players really high earners?

I have been undecided with fabio but if he is a high earner then get rid as Declan is quite similar can't defend decent going forward. Not that I prefer Declan but from a value of money point of view its a no brainer. If high earners are irreplaceable then you keep them but nobody on that list falls in to that category so time to go and save a few quid. :wave:

How much is Jones on?

Re: ' SEVEN MORE PLAYERS TO LEAVE IN JANUARY '

Tue Dec 30, 2014 9:04 pm

If Tan want people off the wage bill and Slade want to play 4-4-2. Why isn't Gunnar and Whitts on that list? Jones or Macheda. Turner or Dikgacoi? Maybe then we would be talking philosophy and cutting costs. This is just peanuts, and some actually useful cheap squad players.

Re: ' SEVEN MORE PLAYERS TO LEAVE IN JANUARY '

Surely aim is for Prem football for Tan?

All this achieves is asset trimming, very confused where Tan is going with all this?

He seems content with championship football

We all have opinions as to who should go! But at end of day players do need to go full stop!! :thumbup:

I think most can agree Gunnar and Whitts is not cut in 4-4-2 mould. And if they are on 60-70k together?

Re: ' SEVEN MORE PLAYERS TO LEAVE IN JANUARY '

Tue Dec 30, 2014 9:31 pm

Brayford should be on that list and macheda possibly gunnarsson aswell

i dont think any style suits them .....we seen the best of whitts a couple of years ago.

Macheda probably earns more than half of these guys and is not exactly irreplaceable :roll:

But surely the point isn't just to trim the squad. It an exercise of playing philosophy, wages and value of the players.
No point keeping Brayford or Fabio if he wants ultra defensive fullbacks. No point keeping Whittingham or Gunnarsson if we play 4-4-2. What does that add up to? 100-120k wages and 8-10 millions In fees? When is any thought going to be put into this club? :roll:

Re: ' SEVEN MORE PLAYERS TO LEAVE IN JANUARY '

If he wants them off the wage bill that's fair enough, Would like to keep Fabio. :bluescarf:

No brainers really. Then again it will be much easier to name those who we would want to stay.

Who do you think will come in Carlos?

Re: ' SEVEN MORE PLAYERS TO LEAVE IN JANUARY '

Tue Dec 30, 2014 11:25 pm

I'd add Macheda and Jones to that list. Both probably very high earners and both a waste of space imo.
I'd like to keep Fabio too, at least he gives it a go every time he plays.
I wouldn't be surprised if there's a shock exit too in January, my money's on Marshall.

Re: ' SEVEN MORE PLAYERS TO LEAVE IN JANUARY '

Tue Dec 30, 2014 11:51 pm

to be honest, the way i feel at the moment. the whole f*cking lot can go

Re: ' SEVEN MORE PLAYERS TO LEAVE IN JANUARY '

Wed Dec 31, 2014 12:10 am

Slade is a f*cking idiot if he sells Fabio.

Re: ' SEVEN MORE PLAYERS TO LEAVE IN JANUARY '

Wed Dec 31, 2014 9:20 am

don't see any on that list to concern me if they leave may be tempted to give Fabio a try in midfield but as a defender he is a liability as for those who want Kenwyne sold he will score 20 goals this season what more has a striker got to do to satisfy some of the moaning c***s on this forum :ayatollah:

Re: ' SEVEN MORE PLAYERS TO LEAVE IN JANUARY '

Wed Dec 31, 2014 11:46 am

I thought Velikonja had already gone??? Strange signing again that one, they are going out but who or IS there anyone lined up to come in???????

Re: ' SEVEN MORE PLAYERS TO LEAVE IN JANUARY '

Wed Dec 31, 2014 11:50 am

I'll be very disappointed to see Fabio go and think it's a disgrace Guerra hasn't been given a chance. The others can go.

I am just going off what is on the list, your quite right and macheda would be first on it.
