Tamworthram Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 1 hour ago, TexasRam said: Same squad as last year + same management team = relegation. I would say let’s move on from Waghorn and Wisdom but as we are in the position we are what can we do. How desperate we’ve become. I very much doubt it will be exactly the same squad even if the incoming are loans/free agents. Whether they are better than what we’ve got now is a different question.

I hope you’re right but with the current stories doing the rounds and supposed position we are in, I can’t see any quality being added. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler Durden Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 1 hour ago, Rammy03 said: We need to keep them at all costs. In the position we're in, we cannot afford to let good championship players leave for nothing. I currently don't have any faith that we'd be able to replace them properly. Kind of strange statement which is only exacerbated by the position we are in. Ordinarily I would be quite happy for both to leave but seeing as we won't we able to either (a) get anyone else in or (b) get anyone in of equal (questionable) quality then this just artificially skews the importance of both.

Woodley Ram Posted June 2, 2021 Author Share Posted June 2, 2021 So the retained list is out next week, I wonder which youngsters from the academy are going, Hector-Ingram and some of the ‘older’ ones maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you sell youngsters to PL teams (who can afford them) and book the profit, you can afford to get good players on loans or on free transfers. So long as you have good scouts and you can persuade the players to join you ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cost cutting - Cresswelll we know, Mitchell & JHI likely, Bateman, Wassall and Bardell's deals are up, and given Cashin, Solomon, MacDonald and Ebsosele's recent development I wouldn't be surprised if they went.

Keepyuppy Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 We do have quality players - they need to look within themselves for application !! our manager also needs decide what our ‘set up’ and ‘style/pattern’ of play is, let everyone know, apply it and stop pissing about trying to find one. If it doesn’t work, change it to one that fits our players abilities - or bugger off !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rab a dab doo Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 The only 'realistic' loanee with chance of returning I think is Edmundson because for a number of reasons. I don't think he figures in Rangers plan's and may well be let go. Secondly he cannot be on very high wages. Finally he know's in our present situation he could play himself into a permanent position in the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm unsure over whether we'll be keeping on a couple of those new 1st year scholars too. But it gives an overview of the situation at least. Overall squad sizes before transfers will therefore be: First team = 21 (+3 possible) U23s = 21 (+2 possible) U18s = 22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rooney has, but Solksjaer has also said he wants to take a look at Mengi in pres-season with a view to deciding whether he will be part of his first-team plans or whether a Premier League loan is better than a return to the Championship on loan. Sounded far from a done deal Mengi will return to Derby. https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/man-utd-transfers-garner-mengi-20629202?_ga=2.257910219.1308032888.1621474541-104212220.1618766885 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
