Certainly not counting chickens but I am sure Warnock and his team are already formulating plans for next year.
I suspect he would keep the bulk of the first team squad with perhaps 5/6 additions.
I think these are certs:
Etheridge
Manga
Bamba
Morrison
Ralls
Hoilett
Madine
Zohore
Paterson
These are possibles
Richards
Bennett
Peltier
Tomlin
These will go
All the loanees plus
Halford
Feeney
Mendez Laing
Pilks
Harris
Bogle
Connolly
Gunnar
any thoughts?????????????????

Sad to see NML on the list to go, who would have thought that after the first 10 or so games, eh! However, he's not stepped up to the plate, so yeah, needs to go.

Who do we keep for the Champions League the year after? :sherlock:
I fear neither would be good enough.Quote:

Here are just a few of the available players without a contract at present - and factor in those with serious injuries and there are hundreds, if not thousands, of potential bargains (I stress these are ALL English and the majority were born north of the Midlands):

Lee Naylor still going?Quote:

Near enough the same as you. Though I would include damour. I think he has some more developing to do, could be a great asset with the right coaching.Quote:

Spedger
Not sure I'd want any of that lotQuote:

Last time we went up with Hudson as our best defender, but they obviously were worried he would get exposed by pace in the premier league, so he barely got a game.
Gunners, NML and i think connolly would all stay
also were we to get there, a season long loan for Grujic might well be an option.
of the other loan signings i dont see any being good enough.
I think Tan will spend very little as relegation from the Premier League is a near certainty as it is unlikely that the funds needed to stay up will be made available. Tan wants some of his money back and who can blame him.
Harsh on Bennett, he is comfortably good enough to be our LB if we went up imo.
I can see your rational but could you see Warnock making 10-12 new signings.Not sure I can.Quote:

If Burnley , Watford and Bournemouth and Huddersfield can stay up without slashing cash then so can we
Gunnar will stay if we go up , if not he's off , he's already told Warnock who has accepted thatQuote:

We're not going to make 7 big signings to replace with far better quality.
We've a good core squad who have fantastic spirit which will be essential in the Prem. Give those players a chance for jettisoning them. Add in quality here and there.
Gunners and Mendez Laing will stay if we go up and Warnock will be given 50m, the same as Malky but I’m not sure if NW can keep us up and a change may be necessary around Christmas if we are struggling. However let’s get there first!
Most of the sued under contract will stay as we will ned strength in depth as we have now. All the loan players will go back to their respective clubs. Halford is out of contract, as is Gunnarsson, Gounongbe, Wilson and Murphy. I wouldn't be surprised if Murphy was offered a new deal to be back up ahead of Camp.
I'd expect Warnock to unload Bogle, Tomlin, Pilkington, and Camp. And maybe some of the younger players like Healey and Mark Harris. Maybe even Kadeem Harris. Players like O'Keefe, Kennedy and Meite would leave too.
A lot of our current squad would become fringe players, but I think Etheridge, Bennett, Bamba, Morrison, Manga, Ralls, Zohore, Hoilett to be 1st choices. Warnock would need to improve the quality outside of these with another striker, a winger, about 3 midfielders and a right back. Maybe a more experienced 'keeper too?
The others like, Connolly, Peltier, Richards, Damour, Patterson, Madine, Danny Ward and Mendez-Laing would be back up.
So 6 or 7 new signings if we get up. And probably a few if we don't go up to replace some of those above in the squad. i reckon we could compete with teams in the bottom 10 in the PL with the team we have now, we'd struggle but would compete.
I don't think Joe Ralls is good enough for the premier league
He tries hard and looks quite good in the championship but he isnt good enough on the ball. He's young though
As others have said, we were tearing into Wolves for their over confidence not long ago. Now we see threads like this!!!!!!.
John Terrys aston villa, they are the favourites for me to get a auto spot.
Ralls is good enough to make the step up to the Premier League. He's one of the main reasons we're even contemplating promotionQuote:
