Just a thread to show when contracts elapse.

The reason why Ive been saying that we have to sell 15/16 players is because in 2021 8 contracts expire and 2022 11 contracts expire. Almost all of these players wont be extended and so its better to move them on now for a transfer or loan to generate some fees and save wages.

5yrs - give over, who can tell, the world could end by then.

Brands has stated that his ideal squad size is 23 players. It will be much changed by 2022.

I don't think we necessarily want or need to lower the wage bill, all the clubs that finish at the top of the table regularly have bigger wage bills than us. I think the clubs strategy will be to maintain or even slightly increase the wage bill each year but reduce the wages to income ratio buy increasing income at a faster rate via improved commercial deals, sponsorship's, stadium revenue, playing in Europe etc. I think we're restricted to increasing the wage bill by 7% per year? weirdly one positive to come from the Walsh/Koeman spending spree was that they did this, they grew the wage bill by the maximum allowed, now its down to Brands and Carlo to allocate that budget to players that will contribute to the squad.

Agree. Wages not necessarily a problem if commercial income grows more quickly.

STCC was scrapped, we can spend our money how we want now, but have to abide to P&L rules.
 
If were this good with 3 new players...

Imagine how good we will be in 2 seasons when all the deadwoods contracts expire

Can't wait till those 7 leave either now or at the end of the year. If the rumours of Sandro being on £100k p/w are correct then we're saving £300k p/w, maybe more, on players who offer zilch. Hopefully though some crap teams come in and take them - I suspect the allure of a 3 year deal on say, half what they get from us, will prove too good to turn down even for that lot.

Yeah that 2021 batch are all deadwood.

2022 James, Coleman and Gibson may be the ones extending which leaves us with another 7 players out the door.

2 summers with 14 odd players to leave is huge.

Suspect they'll offer Kenny a new one too if we haven't got a new RB sorted, but doubt it. The rest its hard to make much of a case for.
