for me I would like to see
Elliot
solly
jenkinson
bessone
jackson
racon
semedo
wright-phillips
and maybe kyle reid although he seems to have lost his confidence and a yard of pace at the moment.
Parrett on loan again although I dont see it happening to be honest
The rest I wish them all the best

I'd add Wagstaff to your list.
Jenkinson
Solly
Wagsatff
Jackson
BWP
Solly
Bessone
Wagstaff
Jackson
Wright-Phillips
Youga
Anyone who's been anywhere near our central midfield in the past four years can politely do one.
Bessone
Jackson
Waggy
BWP
Possibly Semedo but at CB, and Jenks if he has a change of heart.
Decent 5-a-side team. Could do with a keeper though.
Elliot
Jackson
BWP
Semedo
Also keep as not automatic first choice but as back up:
Anyinsah
Benson
Wagstaff
Solly
Racon maybe
Dailly
Solly
Llera
Dailly
Jackson
Wagstaff
BWP
I'd also consider Youga (subject to vigorous medical tests) if Powelly rates him.
The names above are people i'd be happy to have in and around the squad because they appear committed and can do a job at this level. However we might be able to attract better for some positions.
Otherwise I'm not too bothered about the rest. They either don't want to be here, are injury prone or simply not good enough.
Not including any loan players in this, wouldn't care about anyone else really.
Yes but I hope I won't have to feel obliged to support Alan McCormack next season. Wouldn't you?
Probably. In which case someone will soon start another one, I expect.
yes but Chris is new so in traditional CL style we don't point that out as it would be impolite. : - )
And that is it.
All other players MUST go.
Squad: Elliott, Solly, Dailly, Semedo, Benson, Bessone
BWP
Semedo
Anyinsah
Back-up Waggy Reid Solly Dailly Stewart Anyinsah
Rather more than most picked I guess, but I see our problem as one of defence and system and don’t fully buy the “poor midfield” tag. Seeing as Spurs may be shipping out O'Hara as he's supposedly not good enough for their European push, perhaps we can pick up Parrett for keeps.
Solly, Bessone, Semedo, waggy, reid, bwp, aniyinsah
Then get some new blood in and we will have to go through the gelling stages again
I think Racon and Semedo are good footballers but we are holding them back. They both need to move on for the good of their careers.
We will need at least two new CB's next year, a forward, some creative central midfield players and either a good goalkeeping coach or a better number one.
I'd like to keep Jackson, Wagstaff, Bessone, Semedo, Racon and Solly
1 Rob Elliot Goalkeeper Keep as back up, but not 1st team.
2 Simon Francis Defender Get rid
3 Kelly Youga Defender £8K per week, get rid
4 Johnnie Jackson Midfielder Keep 1st team
5 Miguel Angel Llera Defender Get rid or keep as last choice CB ie 5th choice
6 Jose Vitor Semedo Midfielder Get rid as on 10 times the salary of Rochdale players and is not 10 times as good.Keep if he accepts a cut £6k to £2k a week
7 Scott Wagstaff Midfielder Keep for squad. Needs to get involved more and learn how to cross a ball. 2 out of 3 attempts hits the 1st defender, ball lost.
8 Therry Racon Midfielder See Semedo, but overall I think they won't take those pay cuts and we probably need a change. They've had a few years :-(
9 Frank Nouble Return to W Ham
(on loan from WestHam ) Striker
10 Bradley Wright-Phillips Striker Keep 1st team as scores. Presume he may need a knee op or very long rest for knee.
11 Kyel Reid Midfielder Get rid. Was my favourite but has shown absolutely nothing this season
12 Gary Doherty Defender Get rid. Too slow to react and run
14 Michael Stewart Midfielder Unknown
15 Yado Mambo Defender Get rid or possibly keep on minimal wages for the future
16 Alan McCormack Midfielder Get rid
17 Paul Benson Striker Possibly keep for squad or get rid if we can get our money back.
18 Alex Stavrinou Midfielder Get rid
20 Chris Solly Defender He's signed a 2yr deal, but I wouldn't have him 1st team if we want top 2. He's too small & passing is not great.Good effort tho
21 Federico Bessone Not sure plays a few good games and a few poor games
(on loan from Leeds ) Defender
22 Dean Parrett Probably worth trying for a season loan
(on loan from Spurs ) Midfielder
23 Joe Anyinsah Midfielder Get rid. He can't play 90 mins. If he was fit I'd keep, but he isn't & I see no sign he ever has been or ever will be.
24 Jonathan Fortune Defender Get rid - sorry Jon but your injuries have finished you as a league player. I wish him well.
25 Ross Worner Goalkeeper Get rid - he's too small end of. I've not met anyone who doesn't think he's too small & height is hugely important for a goalie.
26 Callum Harriott Midfielder ?
27 Freddie Warren ?
29 Jordan Cousins Keep
30 Conor Gough Goalkeeper ?
31 Ben Davisson Midfielder ?
32 Tamer Tuna Striker ?
34 Carl Jenkinson Defender Keep if he changes his mind
36 Christian Dailly Defender Keep even if not for 1st team. I think he will improve if he had one decent defender or goalie to give him some support.
38 John Sullivan ?
(on loan from Millwll ) Goalkeeper
39 Nathan Eccleston Prob return
(on loan from Livpool ) Striker
40 Brandon Hall ?
Lewis Perkins Striker ?
I know, we need 9 1st teamers & another few as back up.
I mean look at Soton with Lambert & Barnard up front. Fonte as centre half. Lallana in midfield. Oxlade- Chamberlain. Kelvin Davies in goal .Fraser Richardson can't make the team. Who in our team would get into the Soton team ?
Perhaps BWP and Jackson, says it all really.
Need I continue ....... we need a whole new team pretty much if we want a top 2 spot !
