Out of that lot I would keep only 4/5

Vigs
Happe (needs to step it up though)
Harry
DJ (maybe)
Turley

The rest are all meh or

Vigs & DJ for me
The rest can go other than those fully contracted .
We can get better than Happe .
He will improve if he goes somewhere New .
I dont think he will if he stays here.

Brophy is worth keeping and Kemp will be here as he’s under contract

Brophy and Vigoroux, with a 1 year option for Turley. That's it

They'd none of them be missed.

I'd let Turley go . He's too injury prone

That's the thing . In the past I'd be praying certain players didn't leave during any transfer window . This season I didn't care who we let go or sold .

Our back 4 today together with Cisse and Clay have got to go

Cissé under contract so unless new manager can shift him gets another chance. The rest will be off.

Of those whose contracts are up, i would only try to keep vigs and Dj here, all the rest can go, and take both Lings with them

Cisse can be transfer listed.

Agree.

Am I the only one who would keep Wilkinson? The bloke's scored 12 goals from RW ffs and is the only outfield player with any skill other than Kemp.

Yeah I’m not a huge fan but he’s proven his worth.
Him, brophy, DJ and vigs will all be useful but the others I’m meh or dead against.

We've definitely got to keep him but for goodness sake get him central. Someone needs to convince him that he's a centre forward not a nippy inside forward. Be more Harry Kane and less Arjen Robben.

The couple of times I saw him play for dagenham he was central and making a right pain of himself. Bashing into defenders, spinning round corners, he was a handful. Find it bizarre he decided he was a winger and now we play him there.

I wouldn't keep him as he upsets the balance of the team and plays for himself. What you might call a fair weather player.

Agree, Wilkinson would be at the top end of my list to retain, I often think he's about the only player we've got who isn't afraid to take someone on and have a shot!

Looking at today, I think Wilkinson, Brophy and Happe are staying. Sweeney and Young offered deals.

Vig may go (I hope he stays), but DJ looks like he has gone. Ling probably would stay but abuse has been very unfair.

From performance today no one else is staying.

Cisse as above I would move on if possible.

Wilkinson has been one of our best players this season. To release him would be bonkers.

However how many times have we said there's been no cover down the right, how many times the shape of the team looks all over the place etc. That comes from having a striker who decided he wants to play out wide but doesn't want to do any of the dirty work tracking back.

He's also been angling for a move since January after getting someone to put up articles about looking for a move up the leagues, seems very mercenary in how he approaches the game. Compare that to, say, Bonne who would run his nads off in the last minute for the team and that's why I think we can do better.

2nd best player behind Vigs.

But yeah, get him central in a front pairing.

Thinking about it some more, just keep Vigs. The rest are all very replaceable. Being our best player this season just meant you could do up your shoelaces.

Cisse will stay although most would like to see him offloaded.
Bet he is made captain next season.
