When will the club release the retained list? Or will we have to wait until the new manager has been choosen first so that he can try and sort the chaff from the wheat?
All the retained list is a list of under contract players. It's not that difficult to work who is on it.
When made public, these lists usually include details of one or two players the clubs concerned have offered new deals to.
Perhaps City's hierarchy don't currently want to offer anyone another contract until the new manager has given them his blessing, so they're hanging fire on making the list public until he is appointed.
Or maybe they've just forgotten...
Here's Swansea's as an example:

Even an old duffer like myself knows the basics involved in a retained list. All i wanted to know when it is likely to be made public.
Thanks jon1959 for the info.
Give them a chance.
It's on the to do list after the signing off of the minutes for the annual tuck shop committee meeting and the last interview for some temporary uplift to management role.
