    Players to clear out

    who might be worth shipping out, and what could we realistically get for them.


    Mignolet. would anyone buy him for what he should be worth, doubt it. 8m. sell...
    Jones. not very good. is he a good enough back up? maybe worth 1m. sell
    Johnson; will be out of contract in the summer. will leave for free. gone
    Enrique. 5m sell.
    Toure. surprising defensive saviour. 3m keep
    Lovren. shambles. 10m. sell
    Gerrard. out of contract at the end of the year. will probably go for free to usa. gone
    Lambert. 3m keep
    Coutinho. 16m. keep.
    Henderson. 15m. keep.
    Sturridge, great but fragile. 22m. bubble wrap him. keep.
    Coates. looks stoned. 3m. sell
    Sakho. might be ok, steady but fragile. 15m frustrated. sell.
    Moreno. decent but often lacks concentration. 12m. keep.
    Manquillo. looks decent. on loan, but maybe one we should be looking to sign. buy.
    Lallana. overpriced but decent. 20m. keep
    Lucas. risen from the dead again. 10m keep
    Can. could be the mainstay of our midfield for the future. 12m. keep.
    Allen. semi invisible, lightweight crab. 8m. sell.
    Ilori. on loan, but looks decent. 8m. keep.
    Borini. energetic, but often poor. 12m. sell.
    Suso. out of contract at end of year. probably will wait and go for free. 3m sell.
    Sterling. very fertile. great if he stays. might have a few sniffing. 30m. keep.
    Ibe. looks great. 5m. keep.
    Yesil. 3m. keep/sell?
    Skrtel. wobbly, often goodish. 10m. keep.
    Flanagan. great cover, committed. 6m. keep.
    Balotelli. daft signing. need shut. 10m. sell.
    Wisdom. decent young lad. 3m. keep.
    Markovic. could become decent if he ever gets a few games. 15m. keep.
    Alberto. on loan. 5m. sell
    Aspas. on loan 3m. sell.
    Origi. on loan. fast and direct. looks decentish. 10m. keep.


    thats about 80m from the sale of 12 players with 2-3 leaving for a free.
    removing all the weak links makes us stronger

    too many gutless players, no beef or desire. pussies everywhere... sack them all.

    They are very, VERY generous estimates

      Agree with that list except possibly Coutinho. He's proving himself too inconsistent so I'd be tempted to sell him. He doesn't do defending at all either which is a problem in a team which is weak in that department.

      For those 13 players though I think we'd only get about £60 million for them in total considering the peanuts we got for the players we sold in the summer (except for Suarez).

      That's providing we can find clubs willing to give us money for them in the first place

      So long as Rodgers is manager though Joe Allen is staying

      With that £60 million we could get 2 really good players for £30 million each or 3 or 4 solid players for £10-£20 million each.

        Mignolet
        Jones
        Lovren
        Skrtel
        Coates
        Johnson
        Allen
        Borini
        Balotelli
        Aspas

        Flanagan we need to get fit and Sakho we need to give a chance. The rest of our squad are all capable of fulfilling roles

          Mig,Jones,Lovren,Johnson, Enrique, Coates, Allen, Borini, Balotelli, Aspas, Yesil, Suso, Alberto could all go with no decline to the standard of the team.

            Bearing in mind the fact we're (hypothetically) shipping out up to 13 players for around £60m that will leave us with a very lightweight squad again. And that's after a summer of bulking it out for exactly the same reason. Don't see how that gets us 'better'?

              Especially as it means we'll turn our ire into the rest remaining.
              3rd place. Worst champions ever.

                  A number of the players slated to leave in this thread are already out on loan so wouldn't be a big loss.

                  The other thing that's struck me is that now that Rodgers has a decent sized squad to choose from (unbalanced but decent sized) he seems to be all at sea with his selections and formations.

                  When he had little choice in the team he put out last season he was fine

                  I think 20 first teamers plus maybe 5 youngsters is about ideal.

                      We would have Wisdom, Ilori & Ibe back from loan moves. Sturridge & Flanagan surely won't be injured so long term either (maybe with Sturridge). So that means another 4 quality players or so in & we most likely won't have champs league football to compete in either.

                      And to be fair most of those players mentioned are useless anyways and are offering nothing but warm bodies.

                        We should wait until we have a goal scorer in the team & then reassess.

                        On current form, I'd accept a worthwhile offer for any one of them.

                        Id do two bits of business in January if possible, replace Mignolet & replace Borini. Neither have a long term future at the club. Then I'd revisit the situation in the summer.
                        Forwards.......

                          We aren't going to make wholesale changes in Jan unfortunately, well player wise anyways. A striker & a keeper would be nice, providing they were high quality and not just some stop gap that we'll likely move on next year.

                            Doesn't make us better or worse if the squad players aren't good enough to play at a high level for the first team. So sell them all and buy players who can challenge the established lads. Then we'll have real squad depth and strength.

                              I'd rather keep the squad together and let the new manager assess what he needs. Apart from Balotelli obviously. Our issues are more management and coaching than personnel.
