Out of contract in the summer...
Dunne
Field
Willock
Dozzell
Armstrong
Bergovic
Kakay
Albert
Kelmans
Archer
EDB
SDM
Drewe
Not sure if we have year options for any of those.
Field, Armstrong and EDB would be ones if offer contacts to. Possibly Dunne. Willock won't sign.

I think you'd keep EDB and Armstrong, maybe Field but who wants a CM who can't shoot properly.....
The rest can all go. |  | | |

Willock would be a keep, obviously, but it's clear he's not signing.
I'd keep Field, EDB and Kakay on the basis that they're good enough for the roles we're asking them to play - Field as a starting defensive midfielder, EDB as a prospect, Kakay as a backup / squad player - and represent decent value compared to the players we'd need to bring in to replace them. Maybe Armstrong as well.
Ditch the rest: you don't renew a contract for the same money, and none of these players are worth what we're currently paying them now, let alone what we'd have to pay them to renew. [Post edited 21 Dec 2023 17:22]

I'd agree with most of that.
Whilst I realise he is unlikely to sign, I'd definitely keep Willock if it was possible.
I'd still be happy with Kakay as cover with squad rotation requirements, but Marti clearly doesn't rate him so assume he will go.
I guess the big question would be who will be in goal if we are releasing Begovic and Archer.
Hopefully we can get a few contracted players out on loan also, and improve the squad that way. | |

If Chair’s legal position clears up in time and we get a reasonable offer I’d sell him this summer.
Marti needs to work out how to get the attacking half of the team to score goals and I don’t think Chair is part of the solution. |  | | |

Yep, that works. Would obviously keep Willock if he were prepared to sign another contract. Will be interesting to see where the released players end up; like the ones released last summer, it's hard to see many getting anywhere like this level again. | | | |

I wouldn't shed a tear for any of them going but think Dunne will probably sign, sure we have an option for Armstrong so would expect him to stay. The others will most likely go |  | | |

Field has signed a long term contract
Definitely keep Dunne (right back and possibly Declan Rice type DCM)
Armstrong... Keep but needs a lot more coaching
EDB definitely keep but I think he has another year and an extension option after that. He always looks decent and will get better.
I've seen Pedder in the dev squad a few times and I really think he is a player. Lovely passing skills and a lightning turn on the ball. Could be a break out season next time. Same for Kolli if we can get him fit again.
If we can stay up we need to try and keep Hayden.
Willock is a difficult one. If Chair actually serves time then it may be an idea to try and keep him? |  |

Only change I would make to this is keep Willock
He is happy under Marti.
To get a player of his quality at times would cost us between £3 to £5 million fee so with him being favoured by current manager, I would say to him, we will match any salary he could get elsewhere and say one year with an option of another. |  |

I would expect to end June something like:
GK: Mahoney, Walsh, Salamon
DF: Dunne, Cook, Fox, Larkeche, Paal
MF: Colback, Field, Chair, Dixon-Bonner, Andersen
FW: Smyth, Frey, Armstrong
Retired - Begovic & Adomah (will stay around as a coach with the EDS)
Released - Kakay, Archer, Willock, Richards, Dozzell, SDM, Drewe (might get a short term extension as cover for pre season)
Sold - JCS, Cannon, Dykes | | | |

You’d match whatever salary Willock’s agent could get him elsewhere?
Absolutely not! He’s had mainly a terrible season and has been phoning it in for most of it, including recently. If the guy finally agrees to sign a contract on our affordable terms then ok, otherwise get rid. | | | |

I agree. He'd blow out of the water any wages we could offer for any other team players we wanted to attract and he's not the player he was two years ago. |  | | |

Not trying to be controversial but I would be adding Chair to the 'Sold' list (subject to him not getting a free transfer to E-wing's midweek 5-a-side team). | |

I'm assuming that you meant we would pay off Richards, rather than release him as he will still be under contract.
That can only happen if he is in agreement. | | | |

Thats a week squad with hopefully lots of wiggle room to pad it out, i'm not clued up enough anymore to know who we bring in but if we can supplement some solid pros with Ahora, kolli etc
I'd be interested to see who comes in for those sold players! But it would give us some capital to spend!!
So by your calculations we'd need:
A new No1
2 RB
1 CB
1/2 CM's
2 Wingers/wide forwards
2 Strikers | | | |

Yes, I suspect we will pay him up this summer now that we have some space to do it. | | | |

The thing with kakay is, that for a 2nd/3rd choice right back he's fine. The problem is we have played him way to much. |
Why does a club like qpr with our limited finances need a 3rd choice right back……especially one who will be 27 at start of next season. | | | |

i'd say no chance he's staying now Dunne is serviceable there and we have Cannon on a 4 year deal.
I'm baffled Kelman got a new deal though. |  |

Kelman is 22 so he could improve and we may make some money. Unlikely…..but possible. If anyone can develop our players it’s Marti. | | | |

As we know Field is sorted, would give Dunne a new contract, hopefully EDB has signed a new one as well, but the big conundrum is Willock, personally feel if the mood music is right on both sides give him a new contract, he has looked much better under Marti. Hopefully Armstrong has a decent period on his contract left. All the others on the list should be released. |  | | |

Bar Dunne and Armstrong theres not a single player on that list I'd offer another contract to.
They are either not good enough or mentally weak. As for Willock, he is either OK or bloody disinterested. Off you go son. | | | |

I *assume* the thinking was that if he went out on loan and tore it up we could get a fee for him this summer rather than just releasing him.
I imagine he’s pretty low on the wage list and I expect he will leave permanently this summer for a nominal ‘undisclosed fee’ | | | |
