Shocking that the keep list is still shorter than the get rid, even after trimming all that fat in summer.

Boggles the mind how our recruitment could have been so poor these last years. I genuinely think a caf-committee armed with the FM database would have done a better job.

Wonder kids up to the eyeballs.

Mata, Matic, Sanchez & Jones are obviously a must go.

Mata & Matic's leg is gone, they offered nothing now & only slowing us down. Sanchez's wages is ridiculous. Jones time is up, he has been here too long and we need to move on.

Young probably be my 5th candidate to go. From what I watched, I think he's declining and it seems he's getting worse. The rest are depends on whether we can sign a replacement.

While I admire the attempt to find a different solution to player availability in January, our medical team can't keep the players we have fit walking from the gym to the showers at Carrington. How do you think they're going to manage a handful of Brazilians, coming off the end of a long season and arriving into the midst of the British winter?
At least you're not against signing South Americans on principle! I concede your point. Last season we lost 7 first teamers: Fellaini, Hererra, Valencia, Darmian, Lukaku, Sanchez and Smalling. Plus Bailly out to long-term injury. We got 4: James, AWB, Maguire and Tuanzebe. We are now 4 light. We shouldn't let any more go until we get at least 3 new players in.

Players still need to go (whether it be over the next 2 or windows)

Smalling
Sanchez
Jones
Rojo
Mata
Matic
Pogba
Lingard
Young

I'd class the above as absolute must leaves

The below could also be surplus if form decreases
Bailly
TFM
Shaw
Fred

The squad has a lot of work still
