SuperSAINT

My post was talking in championship-tense. I sincerely admire everyone who's still thinking about Premier league football next season.

I've been saying around 16 players will go, so I'm going for: 1. FORSTER 2. CEDRIC 3. HOEDT 4. BERTRAND 5. LEMINA 6. HØJBJERG 7. ROMEU 8. PIED 9. CLASIE 10. BOUFAL 11. REDMOND 12. TADIC 13. WARD-PROWSE 14. S.DAVIS 15. GABBIADINI 16. AUSTIN Whether we trust the recruitment team and/or ownership regarding 1st team & club re-structuring is another matter altogether.

It's going to be chaos. (Les will probably have us linked with Maddison & Sessegnon though)

I always thought Daniel Bentley looked a good prospect.

Good points, well made.

I can't decide if McCarthy is really good, or just competent.

Bertrand's sale would probably act as an additional parachute payment. (or a big chunk of Gao's loan, if you want to take a cynical view).

Byrne @ Right-back looked good against us. Dack/Reid/Powell have looked good whenever I've watched them.

If anyone's interested:

Is he ITK?

Not to mention is new contract (on top of the 'old' new contract). If we do end up going down, I'm going to miss the old emergency loan system.

Do you think Forster would get a move?

I don't think PEH would stay, but I think he'd really develop in the championship.

Certainly wasn't moaning at you that he'd been mentioned previously, Uwe Just mentioned it because I remembered his name after Batman mentioned him as I'd not seen him play before.

Batman mentioned has him previously. Get him on the bus! (I miss saying that)

We really do. One of the things I loved about our recruitment under Pards/Cortese run was how so many of our signings were: 1) Physically big. 2) Had been captains previously.

Shane Long would certainly be very useful down there. Not sure he'd rip it apart. Decent mix of strikers though, assuming we would keep them all. Austin / Long probably on BIG money. The bigger question is, would anyone trust Les & Ross to re-build? They seemingly have a blind-spot when it comes to defenders & strikers.

We need to sign championship know-how and/or experienced players if we are going to play with that lot. Aden Flint & Sol Bamba are the type of centre-backs that do well down there.

Yes! It worked

Difference between us & Stoke is Stoke look like they can actually defend.
