People seem to be getting a bit carried away with who we might ship out. Some of the names coming up are mad, and we're certainly not selling a host of senior players in one window.
Telles is an important squad player and our only proper back up at left back. He's not going anywhere, and certainly not going anywhere when it seems like one or both of Williams and Dalot could be heading out either on loan, or permanently.
We're not losing more than one, if that, of Lindelof, Bailly and Tuanzebe, and I'd be very surprised if Lindelof was even in the discussion to be sold at all given he was basically a starting centre back the past 2 or 3 seasons. Even Tuanzebe I'd say is more likely to go out on loan.
Similarly, I'd be amazed if more than one of Lingard, Martial and James went this window, if any.
I'm fully expecting Pogba to be sold, and I'm almost certain Pereira will either be sold (for a small fee) or loaned again this summer. I don't expect Jones to be part of any registered squad, but I'm not sure whether he'll just be sat with the reserves, released from his contract, or loaned out. After that, I can't see any obvious departures among the senior players.
Lingard seems a likely candidate to be sold if there's interest, but that's not guaranteed given his form on loan and the possibility that we'll be without Rashford for a good chunk of the season. There's some talk of Williams going on loan and Dalot perhaps leaving, but I wouldn't be surprised if that's just another loan, and I can't see us letting them both go until we've signed a new right back.
There are some degree of rumours surrounding James, Martial, Bailly, Tuanzebe and van de Beek, but I can't really see much coming of them aside from a possible loan for Tuanzebe.
After that there's the speculation surrounding our goalkeepers, but that seems to be just that.
Finally, there are the likes of Amad, Garner and Pellistri who aren't really senior squad members anyway, and are most likely going to find themselves loaned out once the lads are back off holiday.
This idea that we're going to sell 2+ full backs, 2+ centre backs and 2+ out of our attack in one window is absurd.
