Tommy Watson ( ...off to Brighton)

If we don’t go up, then I will assume we lose all the loaners, Jobe, Watson, Neil, Cirkin

This leaves us with with a first team of

Patto
Hume Ballard O9 Alese/Huggins assuming one can be fit
Rigg Browne Triantis
Roberts Isidor Mundle

And backups

Young
? Seelt Hjelde ?
? ? Aleksic
Poveda Ahmed Mayenda

Pretty apparent where the gaps are. Spend the money wisely and we can be stronger than this year. But that means we need players for now and we haven’t been that good at finding those

Surprised we didn’t bring in other young midi fielders in Jan

Have a feeling if we don’t go up, Patto will be moved on and Young will start

Im not sure who is going to be queuing up to bid for Neil and Cirkin tbh. Dan Neil is 23, Cirkin will be 23 in a couple of weeks.

Both of them, on their day, are good Championship footballers, both of them have quite long runs of form when they are poor.

I just don't think that's the kind of profile that Premier League teams will be looking at. Jack Clarke was similar age last summer, and was our best player week in, week out. And he has really struggled in a poor Premier League side. It's a massive step up.

I just don't see Premier League sides thinking that either Neil or Cirkin have got what it takes to step up a level.

Jobe and Watson have four or five years on them, so I could see them leaving.

Out of contract so they sign or leave I suspect
 
Good luck to the lad. Hes barely kicked a football, but looks like he's secured a nice little contract at a Premier League club.

There will be plenty more who either have their next move sorted already or will be telling the club that they want a move come the summer.

Looked the most exciting of all our young'uns before he picked up that injury. Will be gutted if he leaves. Surprised so many saying they wouldn't be bothered.

If he wants to leave, we might as well get the best deal we can for him. With Harte as his agent/advisor or whatever his title is, it's only going to be a matter of time anyhow.

Step up and do what?
We can’t compete when it comes to money so players will leave, simple as that.

If I was a player, I am sure my parents would want the best for me but would also ask me to be mindful to take the advice of my partners father as an 18 yr old.

I’d be telling him to take the money at a prem club renowned for nurturing young talent.
