[The Penny Blue]

Stekelenberg (estimated 30k a week)
- Awful as backup to Pickford, no wonder he's in a position of comfort and makes terrible sloppy mistakes under no pressure to improve.

Jagielka (estimated 70k a week)
- Thanks for the hard work, contract up and time to part company now.

Williams (estimated 70k a week)
- Thankfully out of contract.

Galloway (estimated 15k a week)
- 1 year left on contract. Find a taker for any fee / free.

Martina (estimated 30k a week)
- 1 year left on contract. Find a taker or any fee / free.

Pennington (estimated 15k a week)
- 1 year left on contract. Find a taker or any fee / free.

Garbutt (estimated 20k a week)
- 1 year left on contract. Find a taker or any fee / free.

Besic (estimated 40k a week)
- 2 years(!) left on contract. Find a buyer for a nominal fee, anywhere.

McCarthy (estimated 50k a week)
- 1 year left on contract. Sell to anybody willing to take him off us.

Schneiderlin (estimated 120k a week)
- 2 years(!) left on contract. Sell to anybody willing to take him off us.

Sandro (estimated 120k a week)
- 2 years(!) left on contract. Find a buyer for a nominal fee, anywhere.

Mirallas (estimated 50k a week)
- 1 year left on contract. Find a taker or any fee / free.

Bolasie (estimated 70k a week)
- 2 years(!) left on contract. Find a buyer for a nominal fee, anywhere.

Tosun (estimated 70k a week)
- 3 years(!) left on contract. Find a buyer for a nominal fee, anywhere.

Niasse (estimated 60k a week)
- 1 year left on contract. Find a buyer for a nominal fee, anywhere.

Getting rid of the above would save us around 45m a season in wages. If we could get around 50m in fees combined for Niasse, Tosun, Bolasie, Schneiderlin, McCarthy, Besic, Mirallas we'll have done amazing.

Would need 2-3 players signed to replace them and that’s not dealing with our RW CB or RB situations

 

[CairnsToffee]

I honesty thought we'd found our very own Diego Costa and for peanuts when we signed him.

Those first few games I was just hoping he was settling in..

Then around game 5 when it was becoming clear he was more freddy sears than Diego Costa it hit home..

Everton had been had

More Freddie Starr TBH!

 

[Raino85]

And who the hell is going to pay to take that lot off our hands???
Those on decent contracts with a year or two to go will sit tight and count the cash. Thereafter, getting a juicy signing on fee when they leave on a free.

Teams will also be aware that we just want to get these players off the books, sit tight and begin offering loan deals as the window draws in. Especially with the players who's contracts run out in 2020

 

[roy vernon]

More Freddie Starr TBH!

Freddie wasn’t a bad player, as it goes.

 

[KaiserEFC]

Gana will be off to PSG £25-30 million?

Vlasic will likely go for around £12-15 million

Besic likely off to Boro for £4-5 mil

Mirallas probably will stay in Italy

Bolasie maybe out the door

Niasse hopefully stays at Cardiff

Think Jags and Williams contracts are up

Martina will be off to Holland or the like.

The only players I fear we will struggle to get rid of are Sandro, Schnerderlin and Tosun. Tosun might go providing the club make it clear he's not got a future as he seems keen to stick around like a bad smell.

McCarthy will likely get a loan move away or somewhere for a few million to a WBA type club.

Genuinely if it’s that easy why have we had to loan them, why aren’t they sold already?

 

[ForeverBlue92]

Genuinely if it’s that easy why have we had to loan them, why aren’t they sold already?

Well mirallas, besic, vlasic, niasse, williams, bolasie and martina are all loaned out and quite a few will likely get permanent moves.

 

[ijjysmith]

As much as we all want us to, is it realistic to see all the players we want to leave to actually go?

Probably not

 

[TheBigIguana]

As much as we all want us to, is it realistic to see all the players we want to leave to actually go?

Probably not

Well I want everyone sold except Digne so no we won't be doing that

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

Well obviously Zouma will be a big target. If we can't get him then I'd be happy for Shane Duffy to come back to Everton instead

I'm not sure if we're going to try and keep Gomes. If not, I'd like us to go for Loftus-Cheek

We've been linked with a PSG right back I believe

But it's all a moo point unless we can get rid of a lot of the players on big contracts who aren't going to play

I'd genuinely just consider releasing them from their contracts at this stage and taking the financial hit. If Usmanov is indeed involved, that'd be pocket change for him and it would finally get them off the books at least
