Thread: Who is Neil going to offload in the summer?

  1. #1

    Who is Neil going to offload in the summer?

    Does the likes of Lambert, Fred, Pilks and Whitts have a future?

    Re: Who is Neil going to offload in the summer?

    Piles & Whits should have. The other two? Who'd take them?

    Re: Who is Neil going to offload in the summer?

    Hoillett perhaps. So much skill but doesn't know how and when to offload.

    I have a feeling that Lambert will be an insurance job. Pilkington is a good all round footballer, who would hold his place in a top six Championship club but will his wage demands prove to be a barrier?

    Whittingham is a conundrum, he has great ethnically ability, a wonderful left foot and great set piece delivery. Hiwever, does he have the athleticism, desire and work rate to fit into Warnock's high tempo tactical approach. I have been so excited by pace in our paly in recent weeks. We are creating so many chances from open play. Is Whittingham still capable of contributing significantly to Warnock's game plan at reduced wages? Big question! I don't have the answer but I know a man who does!

    Are they Warnock type players? Still don't know what Pilks best position is. Whitts legs are going. Will they be happy being on the bench more often than not? Are they still good enough for a team looking to be in the top 6?

    Anusol should do the trick.

    Re: Who is Neil going to offload in the summer?

    I'd keep Pilks, good player who can cover 3-4 positions.

    We've got a few out of contract and it's these where the question lies

    Depending on wage demands..

    Hoilett- keep
    Harris- keep
    Whitts- 1 more year perhaps, but he might get better offers elsewhere
    Adeyemi- go
    Ajeyi- keep
    Le Fondre- keep
    Manga- think he'll go

    Then there's a load of fringe players who've either gone or will go.

    Looks like we'll have to sell 1 or 2 to bring money in.

    Only ones who'll attract fees over £2m are Ken, Ralls , Gunnar (just) and Morrison.

    Wouldn't want to lose any of these, but we need 1 probably 2 strikers, a keeper and midfield competition.
    I think if Kennedy comes back and No one, Harris and Hoilett all stay and keep their recent form we might get away without the new winger.

    Probably need another full back unless Declan comes good.

    Re: Who is Neil going to offload in the summer?

    I think Whitts is gonna be sacrificed and it's sad considering how loyal he has been to us.
    The problem i have is finding a realistic position for him.

    The only position i could see him doing a job is the position David Silva and Iniesta play tucked in on the left in a 4-3-3.

    I think Warnock could play this system effectively but i just don't think he fancies Whitts.

    I would cash in on Pilkington nand Noone if offers come.

    Re: Who is Neil going to offload in the summer?

    Whitts - Player/coach role
    ALF's contract is up so let him go
    Manga and Lambert can go
    I think noone will go

    Maybe Manga and Morrison will leave, Manga is out of contract so a big wage gone. Morrison could be sold for a fee and wages saved as well. Fred, Adeyemi, O'Keefe and Lee Fondre will all leave.

    Re: Who is Neil going to offload in the summer?

    Looking at our squad, I think it's a given we'll keep

    Sol Bamba
    Matthew Connolly
    Aron Gunnarsson
    Greg Halford
    Kadeem Harris
    Rhys Healey
    Junior Hoilett
    Declan John
    Sean Morrison
    Brian Murphy
    Craig Noone
    Lee Peltier
    Anthony Pilkington
    Joe Ralls
    Kenneth Zohore

    These are likely to go if they can get decent contract offers elsewhere:

    Semi Ajayi
    Stuart O'Keefe
    Ashley Richards
    Peter Whittingham

    While these will be gone:

    Tom Adeyemi
    Joe Bennett
    Bruno Ecuele Manga
    Frederic Gounongbe
    Emyr Huws
    Matthew Kennedy
    Rickie Lambert
    Adam Le Fondre
    Idris Saadi

    I think managers will disagree with you big time.

    With the exception of Jazz I agree. Pity Saadi never had a run of games. Yet another striker to add to the long list of failures.

    Re: Who is Neil going to offload in the summer?

    Ajayi, Kennedy and Huws will stay with Warnock working with them pre season before the main training starts. Witts should also stay possibly as player/coach.

  23. #23

    Re: Who is Neil going to offload in the summer?

    Saadi is an interesting one. I'm told by a Kortik fan that he doesn't want to come back but won't sign for them either.
    May well be that we can sell him to a continental side and recoup a reasonable fee after his goals this season.

    Of course we will also have Amos off the books too.

    Hopefully Lambert can get fit as he's technically a very good player and will be handy to have in the squad.

    I'd expect Fred to go back to Belgium, but I'm still not convinced that he has 'nothing to offer' just yet.

    I see Eric is binning Bennett, but he's got 2 years of contract left and is likely to stay. He's another who has something to offer, but needs a decent pre season.

    Those 3 will be like new signings and will give us options.

    Not so sure what will happen to O'Keefe, I feel he's been a bit unlucky and has done reasonably well for us.
    Probably loaned out to L1

    Well, he is English, poor bugger.
