Bye to Gibson and Oviedo.
Are you serious about Conor McAleny or just on a fishing expedition? I can't see him being remotely near to our first team squad in the future.
To be honest I put some players in so I could get the pleasure of removing them.
Bit harsh on young Connor, but hey ho, he will be named in the squad if he doesnt move in the next 24hours.
If we could trade Kone for another striker I would feel happier like.
Nada.

Hmm, Pennington and McAleny seem like generous inclusions.
I agreed, thats why I removed them in an edit.

We're so thin at full back, on the wing and up front. We'll definitely see some more kids in the team before the end of the season I would imagine.

Meh, I aint putting Kone back in the squad.

Birds of a feather flock together
Hopefully Watford and Hull will buy Cleverley and Niasse.
Deulofeu and Tarashaj return from Milan and Frankfurt respectively...not sure what to do with them. McGeady and Rodriguez, we have to sell them, the 100 old year old deadwoods in the summer.
Kone and McAleny will be released since their contracts are going to expire, finally.
Not going to pay what West Ham want for Valencia so he will probably return to his old club unless he shows he is worth the price tag in the last 16 matches.
Jagielka (unless he is happy to be 4th/5th choice) and Lennon as fringe players may leave to get first team minutes elsewhere.
One of Barry (aging) or Besic (injured prone like a younger Gibson) stays as back-up.
And Garbutt...? Not sure sell probably he can't get much minutes at Wigan.
That's about it in terms of outgoing in the summer.
In terms of incoming...
1 GK, 1 CB, 1 LB, 1 CM who can cover RM/LM, 1 AM/playmaker/winger, 1 FW/ST.
Make sure Lukaku and Barkley sign new long term contracts.
