smithies is probably on a lot more money, if Phillips keeps up this run of form then I wouldn't be surprised to see smithies moved on in the summer and another young keeper brought in

According to this website https://footballleaguefc.com/2019-20...-player-wages/ and a few others on the internet, Smithies is our highest permanent earner... with only Ojo out earning him, he'll be gone at the end of the season. Must be said if Phillips carries this form on then the club really should move Smithies on this summer.

Difficult to know how accurate that is, but yeh, there is a budget crunch coming so we are going to have to make some difficult choices.
If that's right then we could save 1.5 million on smithies wage + any fee that we got for him ( - wages / fee for goalkeeping cover - any increase in phillips wages). Of course if we can afford to keep them both then we'd be stronger - we're just speculating really as we don't really know the state of the finances.

Again IF correct Bacuna is on a large wage and not really justifying it, but how easy will it be to move him on?

Maybe if Warnock takes Boro up he'll give us a tidy fee for him
