At least we will have Theo back
If FFP can be navigated, I too think we will ‘go big’ this summer.
We have to.
Mina
Gomes
King
Bernard
Holgate
All of the above need binning off, not to mention the likes of JJ Kenny and Moise Kean.
That should give Carlo a decent war chest.
We need a squad so we can't just sell everyone and start again because players will be on big contracts and if they don't get what they want, they'll sit on them until they do which they are perfectly entitled too.
In the past, Brands has wanted a working 23 man squad:
3 goalkeepers
8 defenders
6 midfielders
6 forwards.
We have a current working squad of 23 players but it consists of player such as
Nkounkou - Prospect
Gbamin - back from long term injury
Delph - BURN IN HELL
Bernard - Highly Paid Meh
King - Meh on Loan
All of whom have very limited appearances but make up positions in our squad.
We also have players out on loan like:
Kenny - Transfer out
Gordon - Highly rated
Branthwaite - Highly rated
Baningime - Time to move on
Kean - Bound for bigger things
Tosun - Turkish Loan Whore
Simms - Highly Rated
So we could look at getting rid of 6/7 players from the current first team squad as well as addressing right back, right wing and forward positions.
It ended up 53 to 47. But still palace having more possession is embarrassing.When Palace have 70% of possession at your ground there are big problems with the team.
We need an overhaul, we have lots of very over rated over paid snow flakes at our club.
We need winners
Apart from one player last night, this is not Carlos team so he is not to blame
He’s on pre-COVID wedge though. Saying that it’ll be tough to get rid because of the same factThe way he’s played this season id certainly keep Mina
Obviously the end of contracts. Walcott, Bolasie, besic and a few under 23’s. That’s probably 15mil edit:- maybe more like 12mil thinking about it. But still a lot of money saved in wages over a year right there.GK: Olsen
RB: Kenny / Coleman
CB: Keane / Mina
CM: Delph / Gomes / Sigurdsson / Gomes
FW: King / Bernard / Tosun / Iwobi
Thats 13 players to go and ive probably missed a few there.
Over half a squad...imagine the wages
not sure what are funds are going to be this summer but we've been linked with rabiot and koulibaly quite heavily which suggests carlo wants another centre half and a central midfielderWe need a right back that coleman was 7 years ago bare minimum, a couple of midfielders that have energy, pace and can shoot/pass the ball incisively, a right forward (preferably a. Wide forward who can play on either side) who is rapid, doesn’t waste the ball & enjoys assisting more than scoring and an under 21 cf who can play across the line doesn’t sulk because he only gets piecemeal opportunities.
... and a goalie.
IMO
after last night id like to see a challenging striker to put pressure on the 2 lads to up their game . Enough chances to win 2 games between them last nightnot sure what are funds are going to be this summer but we've been linked with rabiot and koulibaly quite heavily which suggests carlo wants another centre half and a central midfielder
i think in order of priority we need:-
right back to replace coleman
box to box midfielder
right winger
backup striker
backup goalkeeper
CB will be interesting if he goes down that route. We’ve had some great defensive displays, but usually in a low block and 10 behind the ball. When we try and force the play, we definitely look venerable.not sure what are funds are going to be this summer but we've been linked with rabiot and koulibaly quite heavily which suggests carlo wants another centre half and a central midfielder

While we definitely need a couple of new attackers. As we have nobody near the level of DCL or Richarlison to call on , if they aren’t performing. To replace them fir a few games or at least put them under pressure. I just can’t see ancelotti playing a new RW, Richarlison left DCL central and James behind them.
Maybe he builds a team without James. And if he’s available, he works him into the team
A right back with pace who can cross, another midfielder with pace, another attacking midfielder to cover James, a wide attacking player.
Those 4 players should be the minimum this summer. Then we could get rid of Davies and Siggurdson, and move Coleman to back up. Holgate could go into the middle and with Branthwaite back we could have Godfrey Mina as first choice with Holgate BranthwIte covering and move Keane out the club.
If there’s any more money left a new keeper and another wide player.
