As another season crashes to an end, it's time to look forward to next season.

Given the small degree of uncertainty, analysis will follow at a later date.

As always it's just a thread to "track" ins and outs, please use the transfer thread for your FIFA line-ups, but of course feel free to add input in areas you think need a tweak.

*I have assumed Begovics year option in his contract will be activated, that might not be the case.

 

[TheBigIguana]

Oh God.

Everyone is for sale. Overhaul this mess.

Love this thread

Can we see a quick list of players that got removed since the end of season? Kenny, Tosun, etc.?

 

[Marius57]

Will have Virginia back from loan as well won't we?

 

[CahillsCornerFlag]

Think until proven otherwise the soon to be out of contract lads should be included, the Lonergans and Delphs of this world for example. It will be much sweeter to put them in the cull section if they do then leave.

 

[Nymzee]

Yes. Don’t think Sporting are taking the option.

 

[Saint Domingo]

Onyango, Simms, Dobbin? Presumably all might play a role in the first team next squad next season.

 

[Bluestar]

We’re stocked with centre backs, but it definitely needs some surgery.

CM also needs work, probably two players to come in.

Finally, if one or other of DCL or Richarlison leave, then replacement will be required.

Absolutely this, don't deny us the pleasure of the CULL @MikelsGoat

Gone - Kenny, Delph, Sigurðsson, Tosun, Lonergan (all released); van der Beek, El Ghazi (both return to their clubs respectively).

Sporting (tight arse) could still sign Virgínia but not for €3m. Simms is considered as part of the first team?

 

[hktoffee]

Only Simms is classed as a first team player in the OS.

 

[Saint Domingo]

Only Simms is classed as a first team player in the OS.

Didn’t we give Dobbin a new contract? He’ll be in the first team squad next season presumably. Same with Onyango. Fair enough if they’re not but considering we’ve had Baningime and Lewis Gibson on these lists in the past it seems like three lads who have all had first team football this season for us should prob be on there.

If both can go out on loan and play first team footie in the Championship that will be good for their development.

 

[trublsumtrotsky]

the balance of the squad is ok for the first time in a long time, the quality however...
