Who do you want to stay?
Who do you think would want to leave in our current situation?
Personally:
. Ashley Young - new 1 year contract
. Valencia - do not offer extension and release
. Juan Mata - I really like him, but release
. Herrera - as above, but t release
. Darmian - no one knows why he’s still here.
. Smalling - our only reliable CB, should be given a new 3 year contract. Since he has been here, not a single other CB we signed has been any good.
. DDG - needs to sign a 5 year contract.
. Jones - just not good enough, and never fit in any case. Need to let go.
. Like Shaw - now he’s a first team player, am sure he will now sign a new contract.
. Martial - 1 year extension. Decision in the summer whether he stays and signs a new contract or is sold.
. Pereira - doesn’t look like he will make it, activate 1 year extension and sell in the summer.
People seriously have goldfish memory regarding Smalling. Just because he's the least worst of a horrific bunch doesn't mean he is any good. Get rid.
Utter rubbish - every CB we have signed since he joined has failed. He’s essential to our squad and team. He’s not World Class and we were lucky/ spoiled to have the likes of Rio and Vidic, we would be utterly screwed without him. We can’t just go and sign 2 or 3 more CB’s this summer and hope we get a partnership that works. We need some continuity.
