We need a clear out.
Fingers crossed.

As expected. Only surprise the apparent desire to give Johnson the extra year.

We will be lucky to get 18 quid back for Imbula and to be honest I've lost all faith in Hughes' ability to rebuild his squad over the summer.

But new contracts are given/being given to Crouch,Walters and Johnson, who have a combine age of 101...

If Imbula goes, Hughes and Cartwright have to follow.
Insanity if he leaves.

The summer clear out should start with Hughes... If I were coates I wouldn't trust him with a single penny

If Bojan goes it'll be a huge sign of regression for me. Return of the midfield cage and the long diagonals.

This surely must call into question the managers future Unless he can recoup a fair amount back. We should be able to sell the pair of them for at least what we signed Imbula for. |

We'll be lucky to get £5 million for Imbula and as for Bojan I said £12 million when he went but at the minute there's not a prayer of that if he doesn't start playing |

It's alarming how much money we're flushing down the shitter on players that the management don't have the foggiest idea what to do with
Imbula and Allen were both bought in to play in the same position, neither are currently playing that position after £30m spent
Bojan is all but gone which leaves us with no creative option at No.10
Our only effective striker is only effective because we've regressed in to something that Pulis put together

Why Percy, why?!
You might as well have just driven to my house and stabbed me, actually I wish you would have done so I don't have to see Bojan depart for good.
I hate football, I absolutely hate it.
I'm going to punch Hughes right in his urethra.

The problem with trying to shift Imbula and Bojan on, is that just over 12 months ago we gave them each a TWENTY MILLION POUNDS contract, who on earth is going to take over those contracts AND give us a decent fee for them?

Don't understand getting rid of Imbula already if I'm being honest, hasn't been given the best opportunity to show his skills. Needed regular games and a more mobile player next to him (Allen?)
Bojan same, Hughes decided to build a team around him then didn't when he got nervous and lost his bottle
Damning indictment of the recruitment team with how many could go
Wants to bring the average age down but we are keeping Adam, Crouch, Walters, Whelan...jesus

Exactly. "Ready to be sold" certainly doesn't mean they will be. |

How many players will we need in the summer then? Not that anyone can accurately answer because we'll probably still be lining up with Crouch, Whelan and Adam after the summer window
Berahino does not stand a chance, not this season anyway, we don't play 4-4-2 and we haven't got a No.10, what possible lineup could we put out that suits him?
Football is so annoying and frustrating sometimes

Adam, Whelan, Crouch etc. starting every week and some of the older members getting new contracts whilst he's trying to offload our club record signing, one of our best attacking threats and still no new deal for Afellay. Baffling.

Exactly. "Ready to be sold" certainly doesn't mean they will be. So we could be lumbered with premium players on top whack that Hughes has no intention of and even less idea of how to use. Sounds a winning formula! |

Good journos use diverse sources. Do you think he reads the Oatcake Paul? I do. This is fluff feeding off discontent on here ain't it? Percy wants an audience. He may have timed this to... |

A team in Italy or France thought they had a deal sewn up for Imbula and we let Bojan go. It's nothing of the sort. The transfer policy is an absolute mess. Nearly as big a mess as the make up of the squad. That's a given and won't change for a while and has been the case for 2 years! |
