Out of contract

Forgive me if there is already a thread for this, couldnt see one...

 

We have 5 first team players going out of contract at the end of this season. Jack, McGinn, Taylor, Considine and Pawlett.

 

Who do you keep, who do you bin and who do you take in to replace if we do let them go.

 

I'd keep Jack and Considine, possibly McGinn depending on whether or not he can shake off this lethargy he's surrounded by at the moment. Taylor and Pawlett can go, Taylor scares me, Pawlett just hasnt cut it.

Puts the term 'full back' into perspective.

Huge pinch of salt required me thinks..

 

If true then cherrio PeePaw.

Don't think he is really going to be automatic pick for us,

So 1st team football and Championship wages equals only one outcome.

That all of course depends on him being good enough for Championship teams and therein lies his potential issue.

Personally would prefer to keep him as a squad player

Burton and Bolton I could probably buy into believing. Really can't see QPR being interested, though if true he will certainly be offski, he will minimum quadruple his wages going there.

 

He is certainly only ever going to be an impact sub/ injury cover player for us, I'd be happy enough resigning him on that basis but if he can get a significant payrise somewhere else then I'd be absolutely comfortable about that, thank him for his service and trust Deek to find someone at least as good to replace him

Whatever Pawletts got weve never managed to tease it out of him like St J did.How many times did we see him making great runs into the box,but nobody alert enough,or on the same wavelength to take advantage.I mind him linking up with Sone Aluko against St J(Craig brown era I think),ripping them apart,but they rarely played together afterwards for reasons unknown,maybe too exciting for we Craig

    Reluctant to let him go,happy for him to stay in the squad(if he is),but if he wants to move......

   

Sounds like a story started by his agent to get him more money

Can't say I'd be devastated in Pee Paw leaves. He's been good the past few games, but largely anonymous for quite some time now.

 

Outside of the pre-Park Red run he's never re-found the unplayable form he had when McIness first played him. His final ball now always seems to be throwing himself down, or looking for the free kick, rather than a cross or shot.

 

That said, when he starts, despite being largely anonymous, he does find the net quite regularly.

 

Whether he'd be happy to stay here and continue to be an impact sub, as mentioned in another thread, I don't know. He's getting on a bit now in football terms.

 

I'm not Jacks biggest fan and I don't think we play in a way to get the best out of him anymore (similarly to Pee Paw).

 

I'd actually quite like to see what happens if Jack goes. Ever since he first signed and took in Robson and Flood, McIness has largely left the defensive side of CM untouched. It'll be interesting to see who he signs outside of an attacking Mid!! If it's another in Shinnie's ilk we'd be alright :)
