Mazrim Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Experience has gone, but Whelan and Adomah aside occasionally, none of them were starting games in the Championship. Experience with no onfield impact is expensive and pointless Thank you and good luck. But no longer needed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alreadyexists Posted June 1, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted June 1, 2019 A lot of PL experience gone there, out of the remaining squad I suppose Jack has the most PL games played? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe, but as Mazrim points out, they wouldn't be playing for us in the Prem anyway, they're past that stage of their careers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've not kept up with Tshibola since he left, is there no chance of him improving under a coach like Smith? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've not either tbh, but having browsed the loan thread over the course of the season I'm not even sure he was a guaranteed starter in Scotland?

villa89 Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 (edited) Delighted to see those 8 gone, hopefully a few more will follow them out the door. This was always going to be a summer of high player turnover, at least now we have the money to get good replacements.

A nucleus is a Steve Bruce team right there. Probably not enough right backs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

romavillan Posted June 1, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted June 1, 2019 Not sure it's possible to get rid of MxCormack now after how his last loan went. He's probably totally not interested in playing football now anyway. Hogan might have some takers in the Championship though. Thor and Tishbola maybe loans out?

MaVilla Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 With the 8 released this week, what do you reckon that is off the wage bill per week, 250k? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously chuffed we have gone up, but as part and parcel of that, we have to let some of the lads go... Dont care what anyone says, Hutton became one of us and deserves a testimonial for a lot of the shit that previous managers dumped on him for one reason or another... Richards however can do one! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is Elmo (165 appearances) & Taylor (131 appearances) by an absolute mile. Next closest to them is Chester with 60. Those 3 each averaged 75-85 minutes played per game too. Grealish only made 34 appearances and averaged 48 minutes per game. Other than that there is very little PL experience left in our squad at all 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure to be honest mate, he has been fit for a couple of months now and has little to no game time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What good would have PL experience have been when the players with it wouldn’t have been cut out for that level anymore... We have the financial clout, a wonderful stadium, awesome club to play for... We can buy players with PL experience that the manager wants and build from there... I’m confident!
