My only concern is that Warnock has picked up some great free transfers but his major money signings Madine,Tomkin,Bogle and Ward costing a total of about 12m have been hopeless a little bit like Malky?

I have been thinking the same about the people that we paid money for - they seemed to have made the least impact (Ward can be excused as he got injured and at least scored a few goals before that. And Bogle should have been given a bit longer IMHO).

Get Gounoungbe out

Same for Peltier, same for NML.

If they can teach Pato how to defend then move him back to right back as he’s good to have in set pieces.

Richards could be ok as back up and Gunnar is out of contract but would be ok as back up.

However if Gunnar was to stay I think he will be first name on Warnocks team sheet and I think we will need better in the Premiership.

Paterson could kick on but he needs to work on his game. Who knows after a long summer and pre-season he might get a bit better. I've got 11 which will definitely stay:
Etheridge, Peltier, Bennett, Manga, Bamba, Morrison, Ralls, Paterson, Hoilett, NML and Zohore. I think we'll likely keep Murphy as third choice, Connolly, Richards and Damour have another year on their deals too. He likes Danny Ward and Pilks too but I'd guess one of them will go. Question marks around Madine, Traore, K Harris and Bryson but anyone not at the club or in the first team picture recently will surely go.

If Warnock only wants 5/6, realistically he can only let 5/6 go so I think some of the loanees will be made permanent.

I think Danny Ward is worth keeping. Bags of pace and good ball control. Not sure how the long term injury will affect him. But I reckon on most of his showings prior to injury, he is a good player. Think we may have secured promotion earlier had he stayed fit.
