Players to clear out

Sturridge?

Sturridge?

so after the same fixture last year, 12 months later the only starter still in our team was coutinho.
so turnover of players and loads of ****e flushed down the pan.

looking a much better team, goals and work rate from everyone, less/no weak links.

and the best manager in the ****ing world

Not really 12 months ago we still had Lucas, Milner, clyne, Henderson, can, Firmino, Coutinho and Lallana from the starters yesterday the difference is how we play and also them being available.

And Sturridge and Origi from the bench too. They'd walk into most other teams.

That's most of a team in that list.

A bit of revisionism happening today with all this rose tinted reminiscing I feel.

The team that played Watford last Spring was completely different to yesterdays bar one player I think.

Most of the starting 11 that day is now gone or in the U23s/bench

[Exiled_red]

The side that we played in this game last year wasn't considered a full strength/regular team last year so I don't really think that the comparisions are fair

[RichC]

They're not. As has been shown the majority of the side that beat Watford at the weekend were with the club last season.

Not true mate, the team against Watford last season was a heavily rotated side, a lot of them were squad players that have now been moved on, not regular first XI players.

how much for mig.

[Daniel 7]

Could see him going on to have a decent Premier League career at a lesser team, along the lines of David James or Brad Friedel. We should be able to get close to what we paid for him.

[Robbie-9-Fowler]

He'd be a good signing for Bournemouth, they're only a couple of stamps away from a free player too

[SB]

Bump.

Realistically I'd think the following players will be sold this summer.

Moreno
Sakho
Sturidge
Stewart
Lucas
Randall

Possible exits also are

Lovren
Ings ( if the doc thinks his injuries will blight his play)
Loaned players who fail to establish themselves

Loaned out possibly
Ejaria
Woodburn

So that would mean a lot of players to be purchased wouldn't it. And a major upheaval. Thoughts.

[ChesterDave]

Hopefully Clyne

[Patricks_Berger]

We need more players not fewer. If we had a big clear out that would mean getting even more in, big influxes of players in and out is disruptive.

Suspect Sturridge, Sakho and Lucas will be the major departures.
