Would take him although can’t remember what he was like with the ball. Signed under Cooper so suggests he wasn’t a ball player. Would be a decent pick up for any Champ team though.

Decent shout that. Played 35+ league games in 4 of his 5 seasons at Stoke.

You’d hope that the scouting/recruitment dept aren’t just looking at former players though

Ben Wilmot! No thanks!
We need something different that Cabango and Burgess and Wilmot is a similar type of player.

Key, Ronald, Cooper, Vip/Galbraith, Santos, Congreve, Cotterill will all go permanently imo. I'm hoping Burgess aswell but I just can't see it.

Wilson, Wales, Bianchini will be loaned out imo.

That should see 15-20million brought in. A majority of that will be pure profit especially if Vip leaves as they are most are from the academy/frees. That will significantly boost our Psr position and allow us to spend more freely.

As for incomings a CB, RB, RWx2, CM, ST/CM depending on which of Vip/Galbraith leaves and a backup LB is all we need.

These guys have to be starting quality players, we have a decent foundation to build on lets not waste it and have another poor summer window.

Believing that we would only get 15-20m if we sold both Vip and Galbraith is woefully pessimistic and thats without the other players you listed

Vip on his own would command 15-20m based on his goalscoring record both domestically and internationally, his age and his nationality that means he won't be absent for periods of the season (in other words not tied into the AFCON)

I expect Key to stay and will compete with Parker for the right back spot.
I expect the club would listen to offers for Ronald. Cooper, Santos, Bianchini and Cotterill.
I expect the club to want to keep Congreve to offer competition on the right wing
I expect that the club will sell either Galbraith or Vipotnik but not both unless the money offered is crazy good

15-20mill was only selling one of them tbh.

12-15mill for Vip/Galbraith
500k-1mill Ronald
Free Santos
1-2mill Key
1-2mill Congreve
500k-1mill Cooper
500k-1mill Cotterill

This is a majority of it being pure profit aswell which is really good for Psr not to mention the wages saved.

I don't see there being buyers for Bianchini after his failed loan spell at Pompey so I think I'll be a loan back to ligue 2.

Burgess is one i hope we move on but again with his age, wages and contract length I just cannot see.

Think Its best for all parties if Key moves on. We need to aim for better if we want to go up the league and his career has stalled here in theast 18months. Maybe a change of scenery will be good for him.
